to post a link to an Oldham sponsor that will continue to support them even with Ched Evans?

If it would be, please ignore this.

If not, here it is. www.cmsolicitors.co.uk

Plenty of contact details too. :-)

Good to see David Cameron come as far off the fence as he's ever likely to on NW Tonight. CE should 'put something back into the community' before looking to pursue a football career.

CE should 'put something back into the community' before looking to pursue a football career.

I should imagine that's the last thing anyone wants from a convicted rapist who is too thick to understand just where he broke the law.

DC did speak out earlier too, IIRC.

Unfortunately, the alleged threats to board members has allowed them to take the moral high ground on withdrawing their offer to CE. All of a sudden, they've become the victims here, when in fact they've behaved deplorably throughout.
In my opinion, they've come out of this today just as badly as if they had gone ahead and signed him.

Just had to tell my son that the OA claims of threats of rape were not necessarily sound, ie Greater Manchester Police offered to investigate but suddenly the claims evaporated.

So glad he's not being signed.

Absolutely devastated there are clubs so void of moral integrity they would have signed him were it not for the loss of sponsorship.

Even more sad there are people writing articles like this - hat4uk.wordpress.com/2015/01/07/ched-evans-not-the-account-youre-being-given-by-the-mainstream-media/comment-page-2/#comment-586887 and the comments are terrible.

Yes, but it's enough to have planted the seed in some people's brains that it happened, therefore all people who signed the petition are evil witches and members of a mob.

Well there's ignorant crap written everywhere about everything.

Unless the threats were shored in the street there will be evidence that they were made. This should be followed up.

There are plenty of ways for people to serve the community rapist or not. If we assume that CE is incapable of learning what he did wrong we are all doomed because so many people agree with him.

By the way, I clicked on one of the links above (can't remember which) and ever since then, my laptop has been going crazy and I'm now stuck with gazillions of pop-ups. Struggling to get rid of them - all the usual tricks aren't working.

I don't know how to phrase this well. I still deplore all threats.

But I would like to know how those threats compare to (a) what the average female tweeter with any kind of profile gets regularly and (b) any threats they got when eg OAFC lost.

Ie were any threats above the general "noise" level of twitter once the nincompoops have sight of you?

Hope my point is somewhat clear. Hope they also condemn the outing of women's identities during gamer gate too...

Not shored, shouted.

Liddle lost his job as editor of R4's Today programme for writing a piece in the Guardian calling for the heads of the people of The Countryside Alliance who'd organised the entirely legitimate rally against the Labour Govt, and did get their heads kicked in by police in a rare moment of Left-wing solidarity at Parliament Square.

He really did call for their heads and rejoiced in their kicking.

Fortunately for his future career there's very little cross-over between The Guardian and The Spectator, whose readers would be exactly the kind of people he'd be inviting fellow Millwall fans to give a good kicking to.

Fat, rotten-toothed cunt.

So he incited a mob?

Google Liddle. Interesting.

"Rod Liddle has written several articles lamenting the demise of football as the people's game."

People as in men and women? Or people as in men?

I googled him and found this:

www.spectator.co.uk/columnists/rod-liddle/9157681/dyslexia-isnt-real-but-dont-worry-neither-is-adhd/

Last few paragraphs about complaints particularly interesting.

He's a broadsheet katie Hopkins.

He even features in torrid photo heavy daily mail articles. As far as I know he hasn't yet done any diet programmes.

Yonic, people are men in the world of Liddle by default. If he wants to write about women, they seem to stop being people and become some kind of category of witches, wenches and weirdos.

"He's a broadsheet katie Hopkins"

Nicking this...

So he incited a mob?

No. He wrote a Guardian column about how glad he was that they experienced the rough end of the law during a protest.

Limited, so he actually praised criminal acts of violence?! With so little regard for the law it is hardly surprising he has no problems with CE.

Ah, sorry, I thought the column was before the event.

Well, they weren't criminal acts of violence on account that the Met did them

Gordon Taylor has compared Ched's "plight" to that of the Hillsborough families. here, not the fail

Can't quite unpick who that insults most really.
