Whoop whoop!

About time too.

Hurrah!

I doubt this is a moral victory, they're hardly going to keep him in contract while he's in jail.

It's who offers him a contract when he gets out that will be the interesting bit.

He's only been released. :(

Should have fired him as soon as the conviction came through.

(Well, I'd personally say as soon as he was charged)

But nooooooo, that'd be a breach of his employment rights, or some shit like that.

*released from the club, that is. Not prison...

It's not firing, it's just "not renewing his contract", so to speak

Finally!

Unfortunately I think it is a reflection on the club's current situation rather than a sign of their disgust/abhorrence of what he is - 10 non-rapists were also released!

It's only because his contract has expired they're not making any kind of stand against rape. Bastards.

can we all club in together and buy him..so we can castrate the bastard

Great though still,and at least his poor victim knows hes been massively inconvenienced, the twat.

He hasn't been sacked, his contract was due to expire.

I understand (from contacts at the Club) they were unable to sack him while legal proceedings were ongoing (I think he's lodged an appeal). I'm told any employment contract would be the same.
