Topic is a comparison between Suarez and Balotelli I was merely expanding the subject to include the comparison with others. Jacqui you are quite right about Craig, he is doing a fine job and this reflects well on him as a person. Of course this wouldnt sell newspapers and therefore a little known fact unlike his antics with a golf club. My only point is try not to judge a person entirely on how the media may portray them.

Good point. I'm judging him entirely on that thing I saw when he intentionally kicked another person in the head.

I accept your view. however I saw a player off balance after taking a shot on goal, whos left ankle was skewed other foot off the ground and being pushed by Modrich, attempting to regain his balance. I also saw a player being subjected to trial by media on the insistance of Mr Redknapp (who earlier on in the week had accused Mr Mancini of waving imaginary red cards).
I also saw the super slow motion of the event played continually on sky news (my point benig that physical interchanges between two people tend to look more sinister than they actually are a technique used in the cinema industry by such as Sam Pekinpah . I did also see Graham Poll say that no intention could be determined, and he also added that in the unlikely event of any criminal prosecution the player would almost certainly have no case to answer.  
Balotelli is an headstrong youngster, talented yes, but being headstrong and talented, In my eyes doesnt deserve the public scorn that he now faces.
Also if I may add this was a single incident during the game, I am led to believe that Mr Suarez continually racially abused the player throughout the game I guess this was intentional, hence the receipt of an eight match ban.
Racial abuse is an ugly thing in any walk of life and cannot be tolerated. It needs to be stamped out.
