refusing to shake hands

[gina32]

the footballer who refused to shake hands, pathetic or what

[Sqad]

Pathetic.............yes..............but I would have done the same.

[ummmm]

No...not pathetic.

[DTCwordfan]

Just plain stoopid......

and just serves to prolong the debate.

What's the score?

[gina32]

and children look up to these people,!

[boxtops]

I don't know this story, have you got a link?

[Zhukov]

Suarez,is "a bit of a plum"..He has big ideas about himself..whereas Patrice Evra displayed professionalism...Rooneys running rampant..but oh no that impudent puppy Suarez,just pulled one back...hectic last 10mins!

Is there football on now and if so who is playing? It would help explain why my father hasn't confirmed our coffee date and whether it's time for me to go ahead and start my new book...

[Ric.ror]

Not pathetic - disgraceful
You know what you are

[boxtops]

There's 6 nations rugby starting, china, could it be that?

[gina32]

was that meant for me ric.ror?

[Zhukov]

...no Rugby,here,pet! :0)

[China Doll]

Nah not rugby boxy, he's a football fanatic... you should see the size of the telly he brought just so he can watch the bloody footie on!

[Ric.ror]

No Gina I was quoting the chant the Man Utd fans sang to Suarez
No offence to you at all

[gina32]

ok my mistake

[Philtaz]

Suarez reverts to type. Doubtless he'll be blindly and wholeheartedly defended by his manager.

[China Doll]

It just makes the fella in question look a bit ridiculous and undignified. I thought Rio Ferdinand's reaction was very good and supportive.

I don't actually see why anyone should have to put on a show of dignity towards anyone you have a massive row with. I'd like to think I would do so to show myself as a dignified person but given my temprement I would say it'd be unlikely that I would!

[Zhukov]

The difference China Doll..is that your qualms/reservations are not being televised to a Global audience...Suarez has brought English Football into disrepute with his petulance...Hats off to Evra!

[Philtaz]

BBC reports suggest that Kenny has spat his dummy during the obligatory post match interview.

[China Doll]

Oh I don't know.... wouldn't most people just think this fella is a bit of a prat rather than make a sweeping generalisation about English football, especially as he's not actually English himself. I think Rooney's displays of petulence would do worse for Engilsh football than anything this chap does.

That said, I'm not exactly knowledgeble on all things football, it's really only my opinion... And I should currently be having coffee and cake with my father who in all reality is glued to this and totally forgotten about his eldest and bestest daughter.... ;0)
