General Chat

I am reminded of the witty words of the satirist Samuel Butler, who died over 110 years ago:

"I believe that he was really sorry, that people would not believe he was sorry, that he was not more sorry."

Hi Jude and everyone:-)

Thing is Suarez did not apologise for BITING Chiellini!

According to his statement read out on TV during the Football today his "teeth collided with Chiellini"!:-0 :-0

Copied and Pasted from The Independent..

The Liverpool striker issued a statement on his Twitter feed after having time to "regain my calm and reflect about the reality of what occurred".

The Uruguay striker wrote: "Independent from the fallout and the contradicting declarations that have surfaced during these past days, all of which have been without the intention of interfering with the good performance of my national team, the truth is that my colleague Giorgio Chiellini suffered the physical result of a bite in the collusion he suffered with me".

The cameras prove with close up shots, that Suarez BENT his head down and deliberately bit Chiellini, not in an accidental collision of teeth with Chiellini's shoulder, or from Chiellini deliberately ramming his shoulder into Suarez' mouth.

Mine didn't bite, but youngest (aged 3) kicked me quite a few times one day, taking her sister to school.
We got back home, I (wearing bumper boots) gently retaliated - she didn't do it again.
Recently, my 3 year old - must be something about 3 year olds! - grandson didn't want me to hold his hand crossing a road, and kept pulling my finger back - unfortunately for him, as he pulled my finger back, my other fingers automatically curled over - into the palm of his hand.

I've got long, strong finger nails, and warned him.

He hasn't done it since........

Is there no other footballer with a 'penchant' for biting who could give him a taste of his own medicine? Or are the authorities just going to accept that this is 'something he does'?

Apparently he has now admitted he did bite the other player but he won't do it again.

My daughter aged 3 bit her year old brother - she did not do it again, she found out it hurt.

Yes Dermot and......

For reference, Tyson's boxing license was revoked by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, and he was fined $3 million after the fight. His license was reinstated on Oct. 19, 1998. - See more at: http://www2.thepostgame.com/blog/dish/201406/evander-holyfield-mike-tyson-luis-suarez-fifa-world-cup-uruguay-biting-italy#sthash.0qzazIm7.dpuf


Suarez.....got off lightly even if he has apologized and the Italian player has accepted his apology!!

Just remembered.

Didn't Mike Tyson have a little nibble on Evander Holyfield's ear?

Suarez has now bitten three people. But as long as the little weasel has a commercial value, the door will always be left open to him.

These days Ann your mum would be up in court and vilified in the press and the GP struck off! :-D

Wherever did common sense go eh? I bet your sister came to no harm from it and she was much more likely to make friends as a result ;-)

or bite him back - that's what my Mum had to do to my sister when she kept biting people at three years of age - GP said "bite her back" and it worked - she never did it again

Shame in this PC world the ref cannot do what many parents would have done in the past.
Grab his arm and give him a good smack on the leg and sent him up to bed! ;-)

Jude I have looked at your link and agree. When I first heard of his behaviour on the football pitch, I said exactly the same to OH ,If a child did this in school, or an adult in their workplace they would be referred to a specialist doctor. He certainly needs sorting out before he is allowed to play football again.

What has this link got to do with JustJohn??

jude :-S

Probably not Dermot, but he got an awfully lot of people to bite. :-D :-D :-D

I don't remember JustJohn ever biting anyone - physically at least.

This is from FIFA......
