In October 2011, Liverpool striker Luis Suarez (left) was accused of racially abusing Manchester United defender

Patrice Evra (right).

“Luis remains determined to clear his name of the allegation made against him by Patrice Evra. The club remains fully supportive of Luis.”

-Liverpool FC

“…a way of expressing myself. I called him something his teammates at Manchester call him, and even they were surprised by his reaction.”

-Luis Suarez

Suspended 8 matches$62,000 fine

“Today is a very difficult and painful day for both me and my family. Thanks for all the support, I’ll keep

working.”-@luis16suarez

“Very disappointed with today’s verdict. This is the time when Suarez needs our full support. Let’s not let him walk alone.”-Kenny Dalglish

“(The incident) represents a major embarrassment for the FA and the Premier League that one of their high profile players is charged with racism”

-Daniel Taylor, The Gaurdian

“For a club of such standing, of such dignified history, to have their star player condemned for such a serious offence by the FA after they had defended him so vehemently strikes at the heart of their very credibility.”

-David Maddock, The Daily Mirror

“Liverpool must now tread carefully. The continuing unequivocal support for Suarez comes without any apparent acceptance that he did not need to become involved with Evra.”

-Paul Joyce, Daily Express
