From the Liverpool Daily Post
If the following turns out to be true - I wonder how Mr Dalgleish and LFC might be thinking now about their decision to openly support Mr Suarez in the form of the t- shirt saga.
...............Adeyemi has already given a statement to police in which it is understood he claims to have been called a “black c---“.
And an eyewitness who gave evidence to police alleges they saw two fans wearing Luis Suarez t-shirts, and heard one shout “you f---ing black b-----d” which prompted Adeyemi to turn and begin pointing at the crowd...................
CCTV and full weight of the Law, hopefully
I watched this match last night, and wondered what it was that had affected has been mentioned, the use of CCTV and full weight of the law is something I hope comes to those that have been alleged to have made these comments.
You ask how those from the club that openly supported Suarez and wore t-shirts might be thinking, I am will to guess that they are sickened, and hope that if true, they will be punished. The abuse that Adeyemi is claiming he received, is different to the Suarez incident, according to what I have read today, people deliberately, and maliciously were openly and blatantly racist towards Adeyemi, and if so, they deserve everything coming to them, and would hope that they are banned from every club and ground in the country, and dealt with by the law.
Nice to note
"As a Liverpool fan John Barnes was someone I had watched and admired. Yes he was black but first and foremost he was playing for my team. I didn't really consider that he was different I still don't", Steven Gerrard, LUFC
“Everyone across the world should be able to enjoy their football no matter what race, culture or religion”, Martin Kelly LUFC & their club's One Game, One Communityambassador for Kick It Out this season.
"Racism is not only a problem in football, it's a problem in society. Until we tackle it in society, we can't tackle it in football", John Barnes, England's most capped black player & LUFC legend.
"So-called supporters who racially abuse players should not only be thrown out of the ground, they should be banned for life by that club", Harry Redknapp, Tottenham Hotspur manager.
John Terry has not got a leg to stand on. Nothing to debate other than the punishment he gets and I think it should be a ban for life from football.
The only thing that I have against Liverpool is how the name and reputation of a great Club is being tarnished by stubborn ignorance of the people currently at the top.
I don't really think that you believe that the Club is not responsible for its supporters - of course it is - legally and morally.
Kenny Dalgleish and his actions have resulted in great embarrassment to a great Club and the result will be an increasing focus on the Club and the supporters in the coming weeks. I personally believe that the idiot who has now been arrested somehow feels that he has done nothing wrong because he is within the bastions of fortress Anfield and the Reds will always look after themselves irrespective of right, or wrong. That mindset has come about because of the actions of Kenny Dalgleish and his stubborn support of Suarez and stupid things that he said on TV which were broadcast all over the world.
I don't have a problem with Liverpool. I do have a problem with the way that Liverpool are being managed today compared to their glorious past.
maybe some peeple should catch a glimse of last nights fa cup highlights programe on itv. have a look at what paul ince says about it all, he speaks more sense than most.
as a black player that has been through this, and not some white person who only thinks he knows and there is big differce between the to, his comments are spot on :thumbup:
see there is the difference, a black player that does know, against white peeple who only think they know.
as my friend said about white peeple who want to be the black mans guardian. they do not want it they can do things for themselves.
as a woman of courage and determination and sheer guts, doreen lawrence should get the nobel peace prize. after what that woman went through and still have the dignity she shows. she knows all about this kind of thing and the way to handle herself. she has my upmost respect.:thumbup:
Maybe the player was a manchester united supporter looking to stick the knife in a bit deeper?
Stranger things..................
I don't think this has anything to do with Suarez, I think this goes back to my original post which was about what effect Liverpool FC, it's management and other players would have on racism by openly supporting it with the T Shirts they wore, I think this incident shows what I said to be true, these are not just racist supporters of whom there are many at ALL clubs, but racist supporters who saw the T Shirt as a symbol of racism and wore thiers to show thier support for it.
There are of course worse things than what anyone did at Liverpool FC
