There's the hard part done for you. Now do your jobs. Find out whether Cole and Neville were punished -- Cole for doing precisely what Suarez is accused of, Neville for doing something similar and surely no more excusable.

If you find that they were indeed punished, then inform us, and demand the same for Suarez.

If you find that they were not, demand equal treatment for Suarez, regardless of the fact that he is your pantomime villain and does not play his international football for England.

Was towards an opposing player who made no complaint about it, don't know if that had any influence. What do you think the reason is that Neville got away with it and Suarez isn't?

Because Suarez is being hounded and witch hunted by the media.

Like for the Hernandez penalty at Ewood Park last season none of them knew if it was or it wasn't a pen then loads of United players came over crying and Jar Jar Binks kicked off like a little baby and got his way

He kicked the ball once, then the ball was kicked away as he tried to kick it again, so he kicked a player once.. not several times you cunt.

No, Kyro you're wrong. You make me sick. Rooney's was a horrible tackle, just thinking of it makes my blood chill.

Because it was a penalty, then your players started crowding the linesman after it was given, how comes you didn't mention that?
