Author Topic: Evra Pulls His Hand Away From Luis Suarez (Read 30794 times)

Maximum exposure required here.
This won't be the shot you see in the Sunday papers tomorrow and it is getting lost deep inside other threads. I think it needs to be highlighted on its own. Sky and others have forged their 'definitive' opinion already. DON'T LET THEM! This clip shows that Luis may have been snubbed first in the handshake.

NB This isn't trivial. This isn't just about a handshake (like the Terry/Bridge one). This is yet another slur on Luis Suarez. And now, with their vile manager saying what he has said, when is this hounding of Luis going to end?

Nothing will change the medias view on it.

They're not interested in anything but their preconceived views.

As for Ferguson, its a shame he didn't say more, would love nothing more than him giving us an excuse to sue him.

Sadly, this is true. So utterly depressing.

Fuck that! We need to keep fighting.

This is all actually getting rather boring now - I just want to watch the football and couldn't give a toss about Evra, Ferguson et al

i presume this thread will be locked but before it is

does anyone think this will be luis' last season with us?

i am beginning to hate football and all it represents. i never thought id say it but the sport is contaminated by brutal elements that have sucked the joy out of it for me.

cheating, diving and a media reliance on sensationalism that borders on perversion. sometimes i wonder why i bother.

Evras reaction to the camera immediately after says it all, for me. Great acting.

Isn't there already a thread on this, because all it seems the post match thread is is 30 pages of .gifs, stills and opinion on the non-handshake.

Bloody 2 threads, no doubt full of *the same* fucking 2s event but in 5 different file formats, with different camera angles, slow motion and zoom.

Fuck me, get a grip!

Jack the Red · « **Reply #15 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:25:49 pm »

I'm bored of it too, but until the fucking media let it drop, why should we? One of our own is being dragged through the mud, and people need to realise that not everything is the way that Sly Sports and BBC tell it.

Kevend · « **Reply #16 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:26:10 pm »

I think we're just trying to look for excuses to justify it.
We dont need to justify anything nor does Luis, Theres no rule saying you HAVE to shake hands, and he is in his own right to not want to.
He got banned for 8 games, had his reputation tarnished and dog-hounded by the media over it. Clearly he wont like him.

Dmode101 · « **Reply #17 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:26:25 pm »

this is about his character - a devious cheat and a framer. but what he didn't know that there was a top view camera to expose his slight of hand at that moment. he should be exposed and destroyed. This is educational too as I never expected the media to be so organised in england in that they are a gang of henchmen instructed by a top monkey to disseminate lies with such consistency and without investigation.

Evil men prevail when good men do nothing about it. cowards talk people down who try to do something about it.

It was 50/50, neither wanted it but it was Evra who took the opportunity to highlight it to the waiting cameras.

Suarez never reacted like that when 'duck-face' refused the handshake.

Pair of pussies.

Jack the Red · « **Reply #21 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:28:02 pm »

Thing is, I don't give a fuck if they shook hands, or started bumming each other in the centre circle, but fuck all will be said about Evra, and that's wrong.

Wouldnt surprise me if he asked to leave to be honest.

He looked totally demoralised walking off the pitch today and I wonder if it is all getting too much for him. Time will tell I guess.

My thoughts sadly. It's got to the point where it's taken over what goes on the pitch (Roy's sig about garnish and steak) and it sickens me.

It's why it's become imperative now to take great strides in the summer, personnel both in and out of the club, and once again become a force to be reckoned with at home and especially in Europe. It won't shut the fuckers up but I'd love to instill another generation of southern double-chinned hacks with bitter and malicious envy that will seep from their every pore.

The way Evra looks at the camera says it all, really.

He's just an opportunist when it comes to making something out of nothing, and he's better at that than football.

Carra23 · « **Reply #30 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:37:35 pm »

I don't think Suarez will leave but I certainly wouldn't blame him if he did.

True. He knew that the onus was on Suarez and manipulated the situation to prefection

Again, true. Evra comes away in a good light. Baconface slates Luis. Another nail. Job done.

NealFrom25Yards · « **Reply #32 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:38:07 pm »

Suarez goes straight for De Gea's hand with no intention of shaking.

Evra made a vague gesture that he was sort of, possibly, kind of, willing to shake, but far from eager - to put it mildly - putting the onus on Suarez to shake... which, obviously, he didn't do.

I don't really see how anybody can take anything different out of the incident.

El Ninos Black Eye · « **Reply #33 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:39:10 pm »

Personally I think neither had any intention of shaking each others hand. Evra is just clever in the way he does. Suarez has no intention, he can also see Evra lower his hand so he has no intention. Then as he passes he brings his hand back up to make it look like he would and then grabs Suarez. To try and show the watching world that he would have done. We clearly he wouldnt have. Cnut.

Pretty much this

With a huge emphasis on the media aspect

Father Ted · « **Reply #36 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:40:57 pm »

Should've just made a point of shaking his hand, and put this whole sorry mess to bed. We look like utter c*nts throughout this whole thing imo. Today should've been a chance to end it all and move on.

Who removed who's hand? Who gives a fuck, just shake hands and get on with the game. I understand it from Suarez's point of view, but really better to draw a line under the whole affair and move on with our season.

I know loads will disagree, and feel we should fight etc and yes Evra's milked it and Fergie as usual has taken any opportunity to drag our name through the mud whilst hypocritically ignoring all those times when his players were blatantly wrong and he conspicuously failed to get on his high horse about it (Keane's leg-breaker, Cantona kicking a fan etc) but it's dragged on and on and stretching it out a bit longer doesn't help us at all. IMO, etc.

Ask Demento if he thinks it's a petty squabble. Why is he urging us to get rid of him if it's only a petty incident?

This was could of easily been avoided if Kenny had Left Luis on the bench from the start. Felt sorry for big Andy being dropped aswell as he has been playing well of late. Big mistake from King Kenny today in my opinion.
