Suarez and Terry kick racism to top of Premier League agenda

Premier League stars Luis Suarez and John Terry of Liverpool and Chelsea recent racist outbursts have bought racism in football firmly back in the spotlight.
Suarez was fined 40,000 pounds and banned for eight games last month after an FA panel found him guilty of racially abusing Patrice Evra during October's Liverpool-Man Utd game.
Terry, meanwhile, is due in court on February 1 after a member of the public complained to police over an alleged outburst aimed at QPR's Anton Ferdinand. Terry has proclaimed his innocence.
Efforts have been made to tackle racism in the game over many years despite the indifferent attitude shown by certain governing bodies. Only recently FIFA President Sepp Blatter caused controversy when he said racism on the pitch should be 'settled by a handshake' after the game.
Whatever the outcome, Terry's court case is unlikely to change much either. However, it could affect England's defence at the Euro 2012 championships as Terry's regular central defensive partner is none other than the brother of the man he allegedly abused, Anton Ferdinand's brother Rio.

@shanecfc1888 There was NO scummy reckless behaviour by Gers fans in 72. The fans entered the field of play to celebrate & Spanish Fascist police took exception to that. Have a look at umpteen other videos of that era in the 60's & 70's with different fans Yahoos, Ajax twice Bayern etc etc coming on the park & NO action taken against those fans...but those Fascist cunts BATONED Gers fans & got more than they bargained for so no apologies. LOL! Celtic ARE the most fined Scots CLUB!

@calvers72 Which sectarian slur would that be? Of course I'm proud of the FIFA and UEFA awards. The latest UEFA "award" is indeed a belter, however, I think you will find Rangers have found themselves in far more trouble than Celtic have with UEFA in times gone by.

"And the award for the only team to ever have to be presented with a trophy in the dressing room, due to the scummy and reckless behaviour by their shite excuses for supporters goes to... you guessed it, Rangers".

@shanecfc1888 S E C T A R I A N slur naughty naughty! Good comeback with the FIFA and UEFA awards... coool! You must be very proud? That latest UEFA award is a belter too! Lol "And the UEFA award for most fined Scottish Club goes toooo CELTIC and the offensive simpleTims"! Chuckle harr harr

@calvers72 Where did I say racism was funny? The way in which racism is portrayed in this video is pretty amusing, admittedly. Typical of you scummy Huns though, always jumping to conclusions in order to cover your own arses.

Greatest fans in the world, indeed. Come back and talk to me when you've received awards from FIFA and UEFA telling you as such. That's not me being big-headed either, just stating the cold, hard facts. Something "ra peepil" don't like to hear.

@shanecfc1888 SO THE CELTIC FAN IS ADMITTING THAT RACISM IS FUNNY? That's quite nasty considering you lot are the "Greatest Fans In The World"? NOT! There's nothing funny about racism but it's extremely funny watching that Celtic mask of superior moral beings make rip roaring arses of themselves as they try to squirm out all sorts of deflection from the nasty truth. Another thing that's very bad is HATRED & you bad bhoys spread quite alot of Hateful Poison but it's backfiring very badly now!

Do you get a boner typing in capital letters? Do you believe that it emphasizes your point in some way and makes people pay attention?

It does nothing but confirm what everybody else already thinks. You are a braindead fucking idiot, that feels the need to type in ALL CAPS to make himself feel special and actually wanted in society.

Jog along now. If you're a true Rangers supporter, your sister will already be waiting in your bed with her kit off. And for the record, the video is pretty funny.

Celtic-Minded POISON will simply be met with TRUTHS, FACTS & REASON...be assured of that FACT! Now for today's Timothy conundrum O R R E R N E S N U D
