racial abuse is rapidly becoming part of the 'istree that liverpool fans are so fond of proclaiming.

Nothing in it, but he should know better than to bring it all up again.

Maybe I'm being cynical but it seems a little bit calculated.

Suarez race row threatens to re-open as Liverpool player calls team-mate Johnson 'negrito' on Twitter

The Luis Suarez race storm that rocked English football last season has been blown open once more after Liverpool forward Daniel Pacheco referred to team-mate Glen Johnson as 'negrito' on Twitter.
The Spaniard, 21, used the word when wishing England international Johnson luck as he headed to Poland for Euro 2012 on Wednesday. He tweeted: '@glen_johnson good luck negrito !!!!'

Suarez was charged and banned by the FA for eight games for repeatedly calling Patrice Evra 'negrito' during a clash between Liverpool and Manchester United at Anfield in October.
In his unsuccessful defence, Uruguayan Suarez argued that 'negrito' was not a derogatory term in the Spanish language, despite its racial connotations in English.
Pacheco later defended his use of the word with similar reasoning, tweeting: 'I Allready explained in past what Negrito could mean. Good or bad depends how you say it. I always called @glen_johnson it in terms of love.'
He added: 'Last tweet about it. @gln glen_johnson speak spanish and he knows what that mean when I say it to him. He is one of best mates there for me.'
Pacheco has made just seven appearances for Liverpool since joining the club in 2007. He spent last season on loan at Rayo Vallecano via a separate loan spell at Atletico Madrid, who have an option to buy the Spain Under-21 international this summer.

If it was a ploy, it's not a very clever one. Pacheco says it can be used in a good or a bad way, depending on how it is said. Well, in the context of that Liverpool-United game, Suarez was quite clearly using it in a negative, patronising way, so this latest incident does nothing to back him up.

Regardless of whether or not it can be used in an affectionate matey sense, it's monumentally idiotic of this player to drag it all up again in a public forum. It's been made clear that whatever the context in Spain/South America, it is not acceptable to use it in England, but here he is using it out in the open. What a dickhead.

As we all well know since Suarezgate is that said in a different manner it is meant as term for a black friend in South America. As we are all know experts in racism due to last season im sure we all except he has done nothing wrong

Whether it's a cynical ploy or a genuine lapse of judgement it's still:
