How do you think the club should respond to the 115 page report? Accept the punishment? Appeal and accept a reduced ban? Fight until the bitter end?
In my heart I'd say fight to the bitter end.But logically and for the good of the club reputation and due to the fact the fa are cnuts!!id say an appeal for a reduced ban.
no offence mate but was this really needed after what went on in the Suarez thread this one will probably turn into a ****in race war
I don't know what your on about, I know some posts were removed last night but I don't think race had anything to do with it. In fact I would say IK is to be commended because I haven't seen even 1 post that has even subtle hints of racism in it. I started the poll because because I was shocked by how many posters seem to have changed their minds since the report was released, I see no problem in gauging the numbers
After issuing the statement and then wearing the t-shirts, there's no way the club can or will accept the ban. After the release of the report, my view is the club and the FA will look for an easy way out - i.e. a low key appeal with a one or two match reduction and then move on. The basis of the appeal should be that the ban was extremely harsh given that the only 'evidence' was from the defendant.
i didnt mean there was any posts like that mate, i ment people were getting so hung up about it that its only going to seemingly get worse. Personally i think they should fight it til the end. Its clearly one mans ord against the other and i believe Suarez was under the assumption that if evras own team mates used it to him then it wouold be no problem for Luis, but oh how he was mistaken.
My heart says fight it to the highest court in the land my head says as we're being used a scapegoats so far there's nothing stoping that corrupt organisation continuing using us as scapegoats and banning us further similar to the fc Sion situation in Switzerland. But i've always been a man who goes with gut so fight it to the bitter end LFC don't let Evra/ FA / Manure if we let them off with this we become as bad as them, we become gutless and if we were knew as being a gutless club we'd still have those cowboys on board and would probably be flat broke.
Fight to the end to Accept any ban is to admit luis is guilty I'm sure our legal team will come up with something
The whole case had fu*k all to do with LFC & Suarez, and more to do with Blatter & the FA. Take the fight as high as it can go I say.
The club would have been well aware of both sides of the case before having the final report. I would be very suprised if they didnt fight it.
I went for fight it as well.He's going to be tarnished with the racist tag wherever he goes from now on and needs to prove that he isn't one.
Unfortunately I think the damage has been done. Appeal or no appeal, rescindment or no rescindment, he'll be abused about this all over the country for a long time.
I think the club will appeal and accept a reduced ban. I don't believe the FA will just rescind an 8 match ban unless forced to (and I can't see anyone forcing them to).
Can we get a second pole, on people who have read and haven't read the report, and where they are basing their opinion. Is imagine the sky, and redtop readers are mostly against Luis, whilst the ones who read the report are mostly in favor. I know that the ban might be reduced by the fa, by what's in the report, but in a high court, it won't stand.
I don't think it's very fair to make such an assumption about those that voted. there's plenty of debate in the Luis thread to suggest that there's more to people's opinions than tabloid rubbish.
