The club has accepted Suarez ban apparently. I guess we are doing the right thing, finally? I wonder though what were the club thinking with that strong statement and those T-shirts. :/
Statement from Suarez said:
First of all I would like to thank everyone so much for all the help and support I have received during these last few weeks.
Thank you to my family, my friends and everybody at LFC (the staff, manager and coaching staff, the directors, my team mates and everyone who is working on a daily basis for this great club) and thank you especially to all the fans who made sure I never felt let down for one second. During those days I understood more than ever what 'You'll Never Walk Alone' means.
Like many of you I was born into a very humble family, in a working class neighbourhood, in a small country. But I was born and raised learning what respect, manners and sacrifice mean. Thanks to my family, from my first club where I started playing, to my transfer to Holland in Europe, I learned the values which made me the person I am now. Never, I repeat, never, have I had any racial problem with a team mate or individual who was of a different race or colour to mine. Never.
I am very upset by all the things which have been said during the last few weeks about me, all of them being very far from the truth. But above all, I'm very upset at feeling so powerless whilst being accused of something which I did not, nor would not, ever do.
In my country, 'negro' is a word we use commonly, a word which doesn't show any lack of respect and is even less so a form of racist abuse. Based on this, everything which has been said so far is totally false.
I will carry out the suspension with the resignation of someone who hasn't done anything wrong and who feels extremely upset by the events. I do feel sorry for the fans and for my team mates whom I will not be able to help during the next month. It will be a very difficult time for me.
The only thing I wish for at the moment is being able to run out again at Anfield and to do what I like most which is playing football.
Thank you very much.

Statement from Liverpool FC - Liverpool FC
The club statement clearly rejects the FA verdict though, not that it matters to the rest of the world.
He'll miss
Man City v Liverpool
Liverpool v Oldham (The FA Cup)
Man City v Liverpool (League Cup)
Liverpool v Stoke
Bolton v Liverpool
Liverpool v Man City (League Cup)
FA Cup 3rd Round Replay/Wolverhampton v Liverpool
FA Cup 4th Round/Liverpool v Tottenham
He'll be definitely back for LFC v Man United at OT btw.
No Lucas. No Gerrard. No Suarez. Gerrard might come off the bench though.
Still 3 of our best players not starting against a really strong Man City team. Tough times.
We'll probably start with this, doubt Bellamy will start either.
---------------------------------------Reina--------------------------------------
---Johnson-------------Skrtel------------Agger--------------Enrique---
-----------------------Henderson---------------Spearing-------------------
------Kuyt---------------------Adam------------------------Downing-------
--------------------------------------Carroll---------------------------------------
Average team really. :/
EDIT: Kuyt and Bellamy start for Maxi and Carroll of that side.
EDIT#2: Lol only Kuyt for Maxi. Even more average side. :/
Fantastic options on the bench though.
