It isn't a legal requirement for players to shake hands before a match so if two people decide they don't want to then that's up to them. Why would Evra take Suarez hand if he proferred it? The guy clearly doesn't like black people. |

Suarez' response to Evra was very childish. He'd have been better off just shaking his hand and getting on with the game - instead he's set the whole thing off again. Can't see his Liverpool team mates backing him quite so readily this time!
..Before anybody asks, I'm neutral - 'Arsenal fan in peace', as they say  |

"There's not really any proof that Suarez doesn't like black people. There is strong evidence that he's not a very decent human being, though. "
Racially abusing someone on the basis of their colour is usually a good indicator of dislike, and as the FA found him guilty and banned him for 8 matches there can be no dispute that Suarez is a racist. |

"So using racist language in one instance means someone without any doubt hates all black people?
I'm not saying he is or isn't a racist, just that it's not definite."
If you say something derogatory to someone based purely on that person's colour it is quite reasonable to assume that anyone else of the same colour would come under the same level of abuse had they been in the same situation as Evra found himself in. Suarez's actions on that day, and this, have confirmed that he is an out and out racist. |

I think he was accused of using ratably inflammatory language. not of being a racist there is a big difference. |

Personally i think it shows a complete lack of personal respect, the handshake isn't supposed to be about personal like or dislike (which is why i think Jamie Redknapp is wrong to say there shouldn't have been one) its supposed to be a sign of professional respect to remind everyone that no matter your differences that its just a game, they are role models and they are supposed to act in a way that reflects well on there chosen profession.
So saying Suarez is right because Evra is a troublemaker... makes perfect sense because Suarez is obviously a model human being and professional footballer! Evra may be fiery and sometimes lack judgement and he may take things too far on occasion but he's not a malicious person, what has Suarez done recently... Used racist language to insult someone, Kicked Scott Parker full in the stomach, swore at opposing fans, dived more than any player ive seen outside of Spain (and Drogba)and the handball in the world cup , which he then celebrated and called "the real hand of god" and boasted that he practices as a goalkeeper...hardly and honest and honourable man. |

personally i think if you dont want to shake some ones hand before a match i cant see the problem, when i played football i shook hands after the game was over to show that after 90 mins of whatever happened its all done with at the final whistle,
i cant recall too much fuss when wayne bridge didnt shake john terry's hand. |

what was done after the game?? been at the stadium of light all afternoon.... if it was just geeing up the crowd, and not doing it in front of the liverpool fans i don't have a problem with it..
after all evra has been thru i don't blame him... after all the abuse he got at anfield and he was the victim ... if it was me i would have laughed in suarez's face... |

as a man utd fan i back evra
but he said things to suarez
to gee him up and got racist comments back that to me is sledging;
like cricket getting an edge mentally.
dont think alex did us any good.
and kenny handled the post match in a dignified way |

Agreed about SAF. He continued to play Eric didn't he.
Evra as a captain may have been justified celebrating with his own fans for leapfrogging City for the first time in over 120 days but to do it near to Suarez was taking a big gamble. Suarez for once applied a bit of common sense not reacting.
Rooney made the difference. Liverpool were very average. As a neutral Kennys signings in Henderson & Carrol, Enrique ? were not Liverpool class. |

Just got back from the game, had a great day and i have to say that Suarez was a disgrace today.
Evra offered his hand despite what Suarez has been found guilty of and still couldn't shake the lads hand.
Oh well never mind that incident, it was a great game and atmosphere and im pleased that Utd won (im not a utd fan by the way) but i was in the company of a Utd player so i had to sway towards them, haha....
I have just heard Kenny DogLeash in the interview and he really gives me the hump. Horrible man!!
Well done you Reds  |

Now you see I agree with this sentiment. The handshake is not personal.
It is on behalf of all the team-mates, their supporters and the game itself.
An unspoken agreement to adhere to the rules of the game and it to be a clean fair one, to act like gentlemen. |

Laine, i assume you are being ironic?
its all bollocks, they should bin the handshake..
they spend half the time trying to maim each other, cheating and swearing like scrotes..
a 'handshake' does not mean someone is a gentleman or a sportsman...
not in the 'beautifull' game nowadays..  |

I'm a rugby fan so follow the 'gentleman's' game more than footy.
I'd have thought any match or game or sports fixture the handshake would mean just that though. Being a 'true sport'*

make you right with your definition..
ex 'proper shaped ball' player myself..
if only the rules of rugby with respect to the ref where applied to football..
'no swearing'... the premiership would collapse..
dont see much evidence of sportsmanship in the 'modern game', football that is..

'Gentlemans' game'?. What a load of bollocks. Unless you call gouging your finger in an opponents eye or sticking your finger up an opponents arse a gentlemanly thing to do!. |

"Is anyone condemning Rio for not shaking Suarez's hand?"
Which was done after he saw Suarez refuse to shake Pats hand.
Lets not forget about this.
Suarez could of put an end to all of this today with a simple hand shake, but no he has to be big and clever and now it will be rumble on yet again. |

its an interesting discussion.. i think i would stick up for my captain and done the same....
i think the onus was on evra and suarez to do the right thing... I am not saying two wrongs make a right... but i look upon the suarez diss being a lot worse than the ferdinand one...... |

Maybe Suarez is still still unhappy about having his sister called a whore. Handshakes are a bit farcical as they all try to get the opposition sent off. |

This was about Suarez and Evra, its been a massive point for weeks and weeks and this was going to be a massive talking point today. If Suarez wanted to put it to bed, then he could of done simply by shaking his hand.
Both would of been praised with them drawing a line under the incident.
He refused and then now its going to go on and on again for weeks, were talking about it on here never mind Football forums all over the country.
Im just glad Utd out one up them today  |

We have a definate inballance in our society with how we deal with racism. There are still a lot of instances where descrimination is prominent but just alsmost accepted as part of our culture, these issues have been.brought to the fore over recent years and they are in some instances being resolved. However we seem to be.going to far thebother way in some instances, ingoring racist actions and descrimination against white people through fear of being
deemed a racistt yourself.
All that i and a lot other people want is fairness regardless of kreed or colour. That said tge only example of that was star trek which of course is pure fiction. |

Really don't gave a toss, overpaid idiots who act like kids and then have the media stoking the fire to sell or keep you watching, and then the players play to the media hype. It's a vicious cycle of today's society, good or bad news some people couldn't careless as long as they are mentioned |

The English FA today announced a multi-million pound investment in a brand new centre of Handshaking as they admitted that English football has fallen behind the world in pre-match handshaking.
FA Director of Sitting on the fence, Sir Trevor Fooking CBE OBE MBE KBE told the media today that the centre will take in young footballers and focus on handshaking techniques from as young as 9 years old. "In Brazil they're handshaking on the beach almost as soon as they can walk" said Mr Fooking.
The knight of the realm continued "We've all seen the failure in recent years of the handshake in the English game, it's replaced the exit on penalties and losing to the Germans in the national psyche.
The Centre of Excellence will be have two regional centres, one in West London and one in Manchester, two areas where pre-match handshaking is amongst the lowest in the country. |

I was at the game...
suarez is a nasty piece of work...
1) didn't offer hand to evra
2) smashed a few of our players in bad tackles
3) went down like he had been shot at end of first half.
4) smashed ball twice in to the crowd...1 hitting crowd and one hitting camera man.
At the end...yes evra was celebrating in front of the stretford end...right in front of where i sit....but the kopites....got pissed of and started at evra.....
I want to know how the kopites can sing the evra is a liar when the FA have found and charged suarez with making a racial comment.....
by the way united won 2-1....giggsy 12 gerrard 0
