Don't like to be harsh, but they do come across as a bit of a medieval, pretty dumb nation. Or at least a nation with a lot of dumb conspiratorial tendencies
Reaction to the ban;
"I don't want to get into conspiracy theories, but it seems that FIFA isn't interested in letting small countries such as Uruguay advance," said 62-year-old lawyer Andres Ramirez.
Local media have lashed out at a British-led 'manhunt' against him, and even leftist president Jose Mujica spoke up for Suarez to be left alone.
"What is incomprehensible is the vitriol with which the English press, in particular, have gone after the Uruguayan. Far worse things have happened on the pitch, even where English players are concerned," said Uruguayan Andreas Campomar, author of Golazo! A History of Latin American Football.
"For many Latin Americans the ban will have wider repercussions. It will be construed as the usual high-handedness Europe employs in relation to Latin America. A case of one rule for them and one rule for us."
What English player has done worse than bite someone? And anyway, biting surely is the lowest of the low. Can only think spitting in someone's face is on par. What is worse?
I've just read that not only Barcelona want him but real Madrid have offered €80 million.
That's insane. And ill bet Liverpool will fight to keep him too.
If he acted like this in a bar he would be inside by now.
I told you he'd get off lightly and the attitude of Uruguay too.£80m?
They can bite me!
Incredible this stat.
Luis Suarez has now been banned for 34 games since 2010 without receiving a single red card.
Think the Italian defender's assessment was the truest so far, when he called Suarez a sneak. this just shows everything to be underhand, behind the refs back etc. I reckon he knows exactly what he's doing most of the time.
