So over 10 years ago two players were suspended because they'd beaten the crap out of someone, so now Terry should be suspended because someone might have seen him swear on youtube?

Racial abuse is different to swearing.

Rio took the captaincy off John Terry, even though it was revealed in court that he'd had 10 women on the side while he was with the mother of his children.

If you count major honors, Ferdinand has won 10 trophies, John Terry has won 11. Seeing as you're a Manc you won't know this, but 11 is a bigger number than 10.

I don't dislike Rio Ferdinand, because I don't know him. But the manner in which he goes about his life doesn't seem too far removed from the way that John Terry does. But it seems that Man United are joining Arsenal and Liverpool in hypocritically condemning others for things they do themselves.

Racial abuse that no one was even aware of until someone reported what they'd seen on youtube to the cops. A clip that was partly obscured but helpfully flashed what someone thought he'd said to help people out.

Even if he's found guilty, it's still only going to be a three match ban if they follow the precedent of the Suarez case.

But keeping Ferdinand in England runs the risk of him killing your wife because he's driving drunk.

Suarez got 8 though if I remember correctly.

Because he was punished for each offence, in the same way that Barton was.

All l did was answer your question!

But lets play along!......What is the diffeance, both Woodgate and Bowyer could not be picked by the then England manager because of the soon to be court case(both would have been a shoe in for at least the squad)?

Does innocent until proven gulity not work in that instance?.....

OK.
