Luis Suarez And Liverpool In Trouble With FA Again

Luis Suarez faces charges from the FA after giving Fulham fans the finger, while his club is in hot water for failing to stop its players from surrounding the referee after the controversial sending off of Jay Spearing.

Luis Suarez has managed to get himself charged by the FA for the second time so far this season, although this latest infringement is nowhere near as serious as his previous spot of bother, the still-ongoing investigation into the allegations of racist abuse towards Patrice Evra. Instead, the Uruguayan striker now finds himself faced with a telling off after allegedly flipping Fulham fans the bird at Craven Cottage during Liverpool’s 1-0 loss last Monday. Since there are photos of him doing just that, one would have to imagine that this one won’t take very long - he’ll get a quick slap on the wrist for something that’s basically harmless and we’ll all be able to move on with our lives the FA will do something stupid and draconian and we’ll all have a good rant about it.

Liverpool have also found themselves charged with ‘with failing to ensure its players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion’ after said players surrounded referee Kevin Friend following his dismissal of Jay Spearing in the same match. Predicted defence: They were just taking his name a little too literally.
