He was guest hosting SNL within 18 months of being found guilty of assault. Its shocking how so little came of such a high profile incident. The Fox News 'apology' to him is probably the only good thing they've ever done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny Vegas Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Sadly footballers and celebrities have been getting away with this for decades and its unlikely to ever stop. Gordon Strachan said before there are no morals in football and he's absolutely correct. We have a convicted rapist playing for a Championship club. On the cusp of Rangers signing Aaron Ramsey today Ally McCoist's first thought was to say it was their biggest signing since Gazza. A day after the allegations regarding Mason Greenwood he can't go without comparing their new signing to another alleged domestic abuser. That's how normalised and accepted it is.

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted February 3, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 3, 2022 Raith Rovers are reviewing David Goodwillie's contract after the backlash to their signing him. Presumably this means they're looking into whether they can just sack him, or whether they'll have to pay him off first.

"It was a purely footballing decision" sounds like the kind of thing Tony Khan would say when faced with the Jay Lethal/Darby Allin allegations. Still, maybe his dad's got Goodwillie's number ready to give him a run out at Fulham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westlondonmist Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Marc Overmars has been sacked from Ajax for sending dodgy messages to female colleagues. While many will see this as minor as recently you have had Mende and Greenwood but I think it's really important creepy arse bosses are called out on this.

I always thought he was good with colours and knew how to accessorise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted February 7, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 7, 2022 Saw this one on the BBC sport this morning when I went on to have a look at what I thought would have been Suoerbowl results from last night, not realising it's next weekend. It's that Chinese tennis player who made the complaint of sexual assault/rape on her blog, then disappeared for a few months and came back claiming that she'd never said that in the first place. Scary stuff. BBC News - Peng Shuai: Weibo post sparked 'huge misunderstanding'https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-60284261 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that sacking him would be an option - they knew what they were signing, so I imagine they'll have to pay him a decent amount of compensation. With all of their self-inflicted financial strife (sponsors pulling out etc) it may be that paying whatever he's due is going to prove challenging. Don't get me wrong though, this isn't a defence - they don't deserve any sympathy at all for their catastrophic levels of ignorance. Ignorance that has surely put the club's long-term future at risk.

Paid Members stumobir Posted February 15, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2022 Seems like the Paedo Prince has settled out of court but he’s definitely not guilty and has nothing to hide. So we not only prop up this family of inbred racists lavish lifestyle, we bail the dirty buggers out when they’re found out. Still, best get the bunting out for Lizzy’s platinum jubilee and pretend like none of this ever happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ReturnOfTheMack Posted February 15, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2022 It's a bit of a shitty ending all around. He now seems more guilty, but she's lost the high ground she used when she said 'it's not about money, only justice' (paraphrasing). For the record, I don't blame her taking the money, and I believe in the balance of things that he was probably guilty. I'm just saying how I can see the arguments between every fucker in a comments section going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
