His old club certainly won't employ him.
No surprise that Mikael D'Haguenet doesn't seem to realise that. |

If he was a 20 goal a season premiership striker worth somewhere north of 30 million he would be playing now.

He did the time set by the court.
Now he can start doing the time set by the public. |
|
By:
His old club allowed him to train with them and only declined to re-sign him in the face of a public onslaught from tw@ts like Dr Crippen.
No surprises. |

There is also no comparison between the case of Evans and Lee Hughes. Lee Hughes pleaded guilty before the court and showed remorse for his actions.
The issue here is the lack of remorse for the rape Evans Committed. I also don't believe he has any right to appeal the conviction. My understanding is that the time limit has elapsed to appeal. He is only asking for a review into a possible appeal which has next to no chance of succeeding as only a handful out of thousands of reviews each year are allowed to go to an appeal. Surely if a person is convicted of a serious crime but refuses to accept guilt and show remorse they must be considered to have a greater likelihood of reoffending. |

If a club wanted to employ him they would - fact is having weighed it up noone wants to.

If he showed remorse for his victim there would not be such an issue.

By:
He's already had his chance.
He's an outcast. |
|
By:
People would give him a chance if he showed some compassion for the girl he raped.

He must have plenty of money.
If he'd got a shred of decency in him he'd have slipped away quietly and started a new life where he isn't known. The fact that he is prepared to play league football again shows exactly how seriously he takes his crime. I've no doubt that he's the sort who would do it again if he thought he could get away with it. |

Nothing to do with a "right to work". Evans' conviction bars him from certain jobs but playing for a football club is not one of them. Problem is noone wants to give him a job.
There have been at least 4 clubs willing to sign him, which shows intent but where held to ransom by sponsors and some fans that whipped up a frenzy. If the same occurred over employing gays at a club or people in wheelchairs how would that one end up? |
|
By:
How about sponsors refusing to sponsor clubs if they hired a black manager for example or fans creating internet lobby groups to hinder employment of women?

I can't be doing with reading any more bollocks from you. I've never been near a prison (apart from a demo outside Lincoln) in my life. |

Unless he accepts what he did was rape there is nothing to stop him doing the same thing again because in his mind he would be doing nothing wrong.

By:
Only two people know whether it was rape or not. One of the two was acquitted.

28 Jan 02 "| Topic/replies: 1,650 | Blogger: Arleystation's blog These are supposedly "Key and Undisputed Facts" relating to the whole incident. I guess they might have to be taken with a pinch of salt given that they appear on a website devoted to supporting Evans' case. http://www.chedevans.com/key-and-undisputed-facts If the facts are even broadly correct, they put neither Ched Evans, Clayton Donaldson nor "the complainant" in a very good light. They also suggest that thousands of young men should be locked up for rape as a result of their sordid activities on every Friday and Saturday." Correction - its Clayton McDonald not poor old Clayton Donaldson of Birmingham City |

The point is that those holding clubs to ransom put their faith in the judiciary to come to their conclusion and punishment (since they themselves have no idea whether he did it or not) so how can they then add bits to the verdict when neither the law nor the association have?

Some very good posts Dustybin, he may not be a very nice bloke but he's done his time, far too many bullies and people wanting too be offended in this world.

Don't worry, if it wasn't for the fact he cant leave the country due to being on probation he would already be playing football in Russia.
