  Former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra reveals receiving threatening letters after his famous row with ex-Liverpool star Luis Suarez in 2011.  The Uruguayan international has been banned for 8 matches after the FA found him guilty for insulting Evra, referring to his skin colour.  Evra says he had lots of messages after Suarez’ ban, even from jail.  "Manchester United received so many threatening letters about me," Evra said during the UTD podcast.  "People said: 'We're in jail, we're Liverpool fans. When we get out, we're going to kill you and your family'. "For two months, I had security everywhere I went. They were sleeping in front of my house. Everywhere I went, the security followed me. It was a tough time, but I wasn't scared. My family were scared: my wife and brother, but I wasn't. "I couldn't understand why people hated me so much. They didn't know the truth."
