Right, but Suarez's story says that he called him negro after Evra called him South American, and Evra says Suarez used it a bunch of times. We have no idea which story is true (although its likely somewhere in the middle of the two stories), so how can they decide on a punishment from that?
As I said before, I am completely on board with trying to stamp out racism, but this situation seems to have been handled poorly.
Anyways, I hope Liverpool and Suarez just accept the ban now and get the the 8 games out of the way. I want this thing to disappear as fast as possible.
