He's appeared in court today after being prosecuted for beating his wife during an argument while drunk. Seems like she has changed her mind now and won't be a witness for the prosecution.

Jeez, 4-5 bottles of wine each, surprised any of them can remember.
What a waste of taxpayers money

I saw him play for Leeds academy twelfty million years ago in Harrogate, he was a vicious thug then, it would appear that he hasn't changed.

@sunshinesupermum

But why is she still with him?
Financial and coercive control I suspect.

He is absolute scum.

AnyFucker · 18/03/2022 18:19

He is a wrong’un, for sure

WhiteHartLane · 18/03/2022 21:09

Why has it taken her 8 months to write to the court defending him? He is a mouthy, violent piece of shit and how he is still in a job escapes me.

I feel squiffy after a couple of glasses. They must have been absolutely hammered! He sounds a nasty piece of work.

His brother and cousin murdered Anthony Walker. He and his family are nasty, vicious thugs.
