This is really good - maybe sammsky and the FA should read it.
Ive no idea what he said but i know if found guilty of racism it is a minimum 3 match ban. all those in this thread saying 1 game ban are clearly not aware of the punishment guidelines.
If that’s how you see it, it explains a lot on how you view race and racism.My god, I haven't laughed so much in a while, this thread has been amazing.
I haven't seen a better roasting since the "Roast of Charlie Sheen", @sammsky1 definitely played a brilliant part in self-imploding, as usual. But then he somehow went even further and reached new peaks of turmoil.
A thread for the classics, no doubt, with all the countless anecdotes and funny multicultural information. I've read through most of it and it has been a ride. Shout out to my SA brothers @antohan and @Marcosdeto, I feel your pain lads, but thanks for the insight and pure entertainment that this shitstorm has brought.

I knew this would trigger your fingers.
Except Suarez didn't use the term negrito.
I don't think they're comparable but heyho...
I get the bit about thinking of where you live but it still feels like some people are saying it meant something which it didn't?
And people from the area/who speak the language say it didn't?
Thread title tells the story 
All the fcuking noisy ones are. That’s the problem.
What are you on about? What law? Who here is a white supremacist? You didnt even know the word until 2 days ago and now you think it is the embodiment of racism and pure evil, and when someone who actually knows what the word means and what the context means you still don’t understand it (or choose not to) ,and somehow you think you’ve come out of this looking good?
What has BLM or Churchill’s Facebook status got to do with this?
Suarez didn’t say negrito, he called Evra the N-word.
please don’t tell me you’ve bought into that scouse propaganda.
Is this worse or the Maguire thread over the summer?
Me too.
Good luck reasoning with him.
wild thread.
Any word on when his fate will be decided?

Exactly!
Now you are responsible for any PTSD Maguire gets in the PSG game.
He literally said thank you to a good friend on Instagram. He's guilty of bugger all rather he gets punished or not.
He claimed he did when in reality he didn't ?
I thought the FA said he did, but they punished him since he used it in a heated altercation and had no history of being friends with evra therefore he couldn't have meant it in a friendly context that the term is usually associated with.
As I told you, I’m totally at peace with being anti racist and having zero tolerance towards it.
Good grief, we've let the thought police and grievance merchants take over the language. Growing up in the Los Angeles area and playing a thousand football game from the 70's through 2010-ish, I was usually the only white guy playing. There was RARELY a game where I wasn't called pinche wedo (roughly, fecking whitey) at least once. Every Asian was "Chino", (Chinese) no matter where they are from. Bigger guys were "gordo" or "ponson" (fat). There were other more nuanced names based on Latin countries of origin, etc,.... No one was offended. No one pussed out because their feelings were hurt. People need to grow thicker skin and stop using grievance as a weapon.
Can someone tell me in short what's happening here and why its a worst thread ever?
Always thought you were Irish.
The FA state that he used the word ‘negro’ rather than ‘negrito’, negrito and the suffix ito/ita is pretty much always a term of endearment. Negro is used in a friendly way but there is a much broader usage.
sammasky1: bad
me: good
No, his post was idiotic.
He claimed that Cavani might have been using 'Uruguayan Instagram' on a 'Uruguayan phone' - that's the level some people on here are on.
[
but you want to ban words and change languages so you have me confused now
Not in Croydon........and it seems that his friend is white after all.
Can i say white ?!
Watch him accuse you of lying now.
fecking hell.

Someone just needs to tell him to be careful about words in other countries, the same way I probably should be careful calling someone a cnut in other countries even if I mean it in a friendly way.
He is not racist*, and PC has not gone mad despite the mini Laurence Foxes running about the place.
*Well he might be I suppose for some other reasons, if any photos of him wearing Nazi clothing are revealed I may change my opinion.

You haven't been around here too long to know which is the worst thread ever.
Not triggered at all. Just had the courtesy to offer you a reply to help your education.I knew this would trigger your fingers.
That was me you muppet. The argument being that his post be subject to UK regulations. What about every other country's regulations? Which wins and why?
Correct. He used negro.
Apparently the phrase he may have used which contained the word negro could also have friendly connotations. But Suarez's initial defence was that he'd used negrito and eventually he admitted that wasn't the case. To this day many believe he actually used negrito.
He didn’t use the N word, he used ‘negro’ which doesn’t necessarily imply racism.
Suarez got banned because FA believed Evra (Because you are negro; I don’t speak to you because you are negro) instead of Suarez (why, negro).
The usage of the word itself was not actually what got Suarez banned. In fact, that is even written in FA report (as far as U remember).
it’s the internet, so many people still living in their parents basements. Their only lived experience of the world is through things like the guardian opinion section. Must seem terrifying out there!
