That makes me want to throw up.
This isn't the first instance of this type of thing happenng. e.g. Stan Collymore carried on playing for England after he was witnessed publicly hitting Ulrika Jonsson in a bar in Paris; he may not have been charged/convicted (can't remember) but he admitted it because he did it in a bar full of witnesses. I remember the photos of her afterwards; her face was bruised and swollen, it was awful. Yet he wasn't suspended from the game.
I can't think of any other profession where someone would not lose their job if they were convicted of an offence such as rape or GBH (and certainly they wouldn't be hired if they had an offence like this on their record).
What the fuck is it about football that means a CONVICTED RAPIST is revered???????? Is it something to do with the herd mentality of the fans? Have studies been done on this?
Sorry about my lack of decent grammar, I'm so angry that I can't think straight.
