Unbelievable - apparently they've already lost one sponsor...

My god, his father-in-law sounds totally deluded.

Surely the best form of protest would be a boycott by the fans, but I can't see that happening.

Yes, Verlin and Mecca bingo are both sponsors who have said they will be pulling out if they sign the rapist.

The reaction of a few of the other sponsors has been awful though. Seems they want their pet rapist on a pitch at any cost.

sadly not surprised

I heard it was one but if two sponsors have been lost things can still change and I think they will

the petition did have an impact as sponsors have been lost and more people are giving this thought

Reading this article, it feels like the football version of an Old Boys' club. Sickening.

They've lost 2 sponsors.

Sad day for decent humans everywhere.

Maybe they didn't want to be bullied.

AWholeLottaNosy · 07/01/2015 13:43

Oh no, so the petition had no effect? Sad day.
