The earlier screenshot of a Swedish better winning on this is apparently true, in fact according to this Guardian story 100 Swedes made the same bet:

It would be interesting to know if there was any more international betting action on this.

I hope the Italian get banned for a year, but he won't. Since when does getting bitten on the shoulder make your fking knees give way.

Absolute cheating s, both of them.
If the Italian had not gone down, nothing would have happened and it wouldn't have go the attention. In fact, I'm sure many people simply wouldn't have noticed it.

He could have just gone to the ref, shown him his shoulder, and requested that he get it investigated after the game.

For me it has to be a world wide ban for a set period of time. I also find it absolutely ridiculous that he could get banned and still get his wages?!? Its like me employing a truck driver, he gets banned for drink driving and then I have to pay his wages while he comes into work and plays Euro Truck Simulator until his ban is up? confused
If you had given him a contract agreeing to pay him regardless of whether he was able to drive or not, then you could hardly complain.

If capable drivers were few and far between and there was big competition for their services, then you might have to offer that kind of contract to secure their services at all.

Liverpool is owned by a hedge fund manager, you would expect them to have insured away a known liability.

Fifa will want him playing for the WC - I suspect they'll move after Uruguay are knocked out. I hope they prove me wrong.

...and the rolling around clutching your mouth?

The Italian player was knocked off balance, got up and rushed to the ref to show him his shoulder.

This has to be at least a years ban from domestic and two years international ban.

The rolling and clutching to mouth is disgusting too, but as Suarez should receive a life ban for the bite, it becomes moot.

The Italian wasn't knocked of balance FFS. Are you Alan Shearer?

Did you like the way the other Uru player was trying to prevent him from reaching the ref and trying to cover up the 'bite mark'

When questioned by Spanish speaking press after the game

“These situations arise on the pitch. I’ve collided with his shoulder. It drove me a little crazy too, but these things happen on the pitch. There is no need to make a story out of it.”

Too late you horrible tt

Not sure what you were watching:

Looks pretty much like he lost his balance from the initial contact and the arm swing trying to get him off. He didn't rolla round as you suggested but got up and tried to get to the ref, blocked by another Uruguay player trying to cover his shoulder up. That player knew what had happened.

I was listening to a scouser fan call in to Talk Sport last night. Was saying that this is a good thing for Liverpool as it means he will have to stay!!

Adrian Durham could barely believe his ears!!
