gotta agree with MikeC a bit here. The media are the worst for amplifying shit and helping cause a storm and then pretending that it has nothing to do with them. Doesn't mean Suarez and Liverpool haven't dealt with it in a bad way but it's true nonetheless. When apologies are served it kinda makes everything that went before it seem futile......why didn't you apologise quickly and save all that followed? I should imagine that it is making quite a few old pros very uncomfortable as there was obviously a lot of this type of racism on the pitch between players not so very long ago and if people are making a fuss about it now I'm sure several household names could be tarnished very quickly.
All great entertainment though and let's face it .....it's show business fellas
