Why suarez evra
I don't think everyone within Liverpool Football Club thought what we were doing was right but I do think as a football club, or you as a family, your first reaction is to support them even if you know that they are wrong, and that is wrong.
We got it massively wrong. Jamie Carragher was part of the Liverpool team which wore shirts in support of Suarez. While Evra did accept both apologies he has since revealed the true enormity of the Suarez incident. When we get out, we're going to kill you and your family". For two months, I had security everywhere I went. Everywhere I went, the security followed me. It was a tough time, but I wasn't scared.
I couldn't understand why people hated me so much. They didn't know the truth. Evra's words this week have reminded people about the severity of that incident on October 15, With racism still sadly prevalent in football, that moment at Anfield will never be forgotten.
This week Evra told of how he had to have security after accusing Suarez of racial abuse. He has more respect for Liverpool after receiving apologies from the club and Carragher.

Because nobody told me to and because I did not speak good English. Absolutely not. And no one else heard me say the word despite the fact that according to Evra I had said it five times to him in about ten seconds. In the next few days, as I started to realise how serious the situation was, I decided I would not say another word. I could have said a lot of things. Maybe I should have said a lot of things. The club told me to stay silent and I was also conscious of the fact that it would be better to say nothing rather than say things when I was angry.
I had not been in England long. My English was still very poor. Language at the time was a far bigger problem for me than it would be now. Maybe I would have avoided all problems if I had just denied ever using the word. Instead I told them what I had said, not least because I did not understand it would be a problem.
The word hurts, the accusation is painful. I think that is why I reacted the way I did at Fulham when I showed the finger to some abusive supporters and picked up another ban. All I could hear was that word. And it is one that I feel I do not deserve. Afterwards, no opposing defender, black or white, used what had happened against me. There were no provocations along those lines.
Black players still came to swap shirts at the end of games. That made me really happy but I was conscious of not wanting to be seen as the guy who goes out of his way to prove he is not a racist.
The lawyers took control of the case. The days of the hearing were awful. And in the end, amid all the talking, I was only actually asked to give evidence once in the four days.
Indeed, he reveals he spoke with the now-Barcelona attacker in the tunnel before the Champions League final with Juventus. However, the Frenchman explains in an extraordinary episode of UTD Podcast that it was difficult for him to show restraint during the clash in the draw on Merseyside, which ultimately resulted in an eight-game suspension for the Uruguayan striker. Straight away, we went to see the referee and I told him what had happened. I told him what had happened and the next day, boom… Patrice Evra in the papers.
I thought it was just to the referee. For two months, I had security everywhere I went. They were sleeping in front of my house. Everywhere I went, the security followed me. He said they made a big mistake that day and he apologised. It really touched me and now I will respect Liverpool as a football club because, when this happened, I was really disappointed with the club.
I received an email from the chairman of Liverpool apologising for what happened nine years ago.
