Evra-Suarez And The Madness That Followed

This is the second book in the series. It recalls the events that began at Anfield on 15 October 2011 when Liverpool FC met Manchester United FC. In the 63rd minute, Steven Gerrard took a corner at the Kop end of the ground. It was Patrice Evra's responsibility to mark Luis Suarez. During the moments and months that followed, this 'corner' took on a life of its own. Suarez would eventually be banned for 8 games and fined £40,000 by the English FA for racially abusing Evra. Liverpool FC stood firmly behind their man, even after his punishment. Large sections of their fanbase followed suit. This book will describe what happened in the aftermath of the 'corner'. It will also try to explain why any British LFC fan in the 21st century would make the victim of racist abuse the target of their animosity.
