This article is from November 17th, so a couple days old, but I found it worthwhile.
To be criminally charged for this is absolutely insane. The fact everyone knows he’s a lowlife and his name is out there is enough.
Yeah for me the world has gone too soft. I don’t see a crime to be honest there worth going to court for. It was utterly stupid and disgusting what he did but I feel like going to court was too far for it.
Let the club ban him and the media report on it but it feels excessive as he’s already lost his job and any future employer will see what he’s done with any background check.
People should be allowed to make mistakes and learn from them, I’m sure he’s not a bad person at all just did a stupid thing and now will pay for the rest of his life.
I’m sure he’s not a bad person
Good people don’t tend to mock children who died from cancer, just saying.
Anyone can make a mistake in the heat of the moment with alcohol involved. Imagine one mistake defining you for the rest of your life. If he’s acknowledged the mistake learned from it and makes him a better person then that’s much more important than villifying him and going to court over such a thing.
I don’t agree with a criminal offence and going to court over the matter.
Look at the thread about Grealish yesterday, people saying he’s such a lovable guy yet he drove and wrote his car off while absolutely steaming.
I feel like you maybe wouldn’t be saying this if you were the kids family.
He got a suspended sentence basically just saying don’t do it again
Not really, a suspended sentence still counts as a prison sentence in terms of his criminal record
Only for 15 months until it becomes spent
It’s a public order offence though? And his sentence was suspended. I don’t get the issue.
Having shit craic shouldn’t result in being charged as a criminal. It’s a slippery slope, and shows you can be arrested and charged for pretty much anything.
“alcohol contributed to the offence, which was “out of character”.”
What the fuck
Fair judgment. Socially, he’s been wrecked, and will suffer the consequences for a lifetime. And if local rumours are to be believed, he’s been knocked around a bit too. I don’t think a short prison sentence will punish him any further, and he’s not exactly a threat to the public at large.
Suspended from what? Why does England have weird laws like this. Like it’s not right but Jesus Christ it’s just words that don’t affect 99.9% past a base level.
Don’t agree with getting a prison sentence for something like this. But the thick cunt should just try to not be an absolute pillock and none of this would’ve happened to him.
Disgusting behaviour.
He’s not in prison
What a daft cunt 😂😂😂
UK is finished smh 🤦♂️
They hanged him?
Not surprising, there’s zero room in the prisons at the minute. Stuff like this will never end up with you behind bars.
he’s a massive cunt but that sentence is ridiculous.
literally can get the same sentence for burglary.
Honestly shocked more people aren’t saying this. Totally being over punished.
I don’t understand how being an asshole can be a crime. He will have enough social consequences. Feels like an overstep of justice.
UK = clown world
Should make him do his unpaid work in a children’s cancer ward
Like a slave, right?
No part of his sentence
This just has the potential to create a horrendous slippery slope
While obviously these men are vile cunts, these harsh crack downs on free speech are becoming an alarming trend the last few years
