Liverpool will not appeal Luis Suarez's eight-game ban
LIVERPOOL last night grudgingly gave up on Luis Suarez's eight-game ban — but still REFUSED to accept he is guilty.
The FA's 115-page report has detailed why Suarez was suspended and fined £40,000 for racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra.Finally, Anfield chiefs conceded there would be no appeal but club and player continued to proclaim his innocence.
Striker Suarez — who admitted using the word 'negro' — said: "I am very upset by the things said about me, all very far from the truth.
"In my country, 'negro' is a word which doesn't show any lack of respect and is even less so a form of racist abuse.
"I'll carry out the suspension with the resignation of someone who has done nothing wrong."
Liverpool players caused huge controversy by wearing Suarez T-shirts before facing Wigan.
The club said: "In its determination to prove its conclusions, the FA panel has damaged the reputation of one the Premier League's best players.
"Continuing a fight for justice would obscure the fact the club supports all efforts to end racism in English football."
And boss Kenny Dalglish claimed the report does not tell the full story, adding: "We know what is not in the report and that is important for us.
"But without me getting myself in trouble, that is me finished."
