Why is it not more well known that Thomas Partey, playing for Ghana against England tonight has been charged with 4 counts of rape, 1 count of sexual assault, other reports say 7 counts of rape.

He was banned from entering Canada.

Why is this man allowed to not only be in the World Cup up but allowed to enter other countries?

It is well known, by millions of people who follow football. And the news. He's also not been found guilty of any crime, so why should be be stopped from working?

I think it is pretty well known. And he’s not the only player playing who is facing charges - Hakimi, for example.

But they’ve been charged, not found guilty. There’s real risks with making people sit out big events because they’ve been charged, if they’re then found innocent. It always reminds me of Michael Le Vell… that said, there’s been a lot of leakage in the Partey case and you’d hope he’d be dropped for that reason.

Then again, the only reason Utd exiled Greenwood was because public opinion was so strong. They’d have welcomed him back otherwise… football does not cover itself in moral glory.

Let's also not forget the disgusting piece of shit Ched Evans, who continued to play.
