I've heard some atrocious shit from Liverpool fans tonight.
"But Evra is black."
"How come when people say white prick nobody says anything about it."
"If Evra called him a gnasher he wouldn't care because he is a top lad."
"Evra is a cnut."
and lots more brilliant excuses.
Agree - some of the comments over there are shocking. I know that the forum is not representative of all Liverpool fans, but even so.
This is one of the milder comments, which demonstrates how they wrestle with logic in their head until they can twist it to fit their beliefs:
"Basically I'm sure Luis was not trying to be nice, but it's very obvious he was not trying to be racist. Negro, is like calling someone a "person" in spanish. Just more specific."
Also, the number of posters who continue to refer to Evra as a serial accuser is amazing - that factor is even listed as one of the 'fachts' in this case...
And that perception (or misconception) was generated from one of the 'journalists' on Liverpool's official website.
Unbelievable.
