See earlier posters who believe Ched playing football again would be a tacit endorsement of rape by society, and 2 and a half years in prison and a lifetime on the sex offenders registry isn't a message of condemnation at all.

I'd hate any of these players playing for my club as well

How was his friend acquitted, anyway?

I think it was decided that as his mate had walked into the hotel with her and been seen by a bunch of staff and was also drunk(?) it was seen as consenting. Evans went around after getting a text and had to tell a lie to get access to the room

Haha what the gently caress? Thats ridiculous. Of course Evans wont admit guilt.

I'm not sure why its that ridiculous. Remember Evans also got a couple of mates to film him having sex with her through the window

How, when the victim said she was too inebriated to give consent to either man, did the jury determine that she was lucid enough to give consent until the exact moment when Macdonald stopped having sex with her and Evans started?


Its cool that you work in law lol

Because it implies consent that she sought out McDonald at a kebab shop and willingly followed her to a hotel room. Remember Ched Evans showed up later, and we only have biased witnesses words that she said yes to him. She following McDonald ensures that McDonald had belief to think she consented, not that she did consent. Ched Evans showing up and starting to gently caress her means that he has no right to believe she had given consent.

I'm an actual lawyer but tbf I don't think the analysis that Hegav posted is applicable under US law. The question in this situation for us is only whether the person was too intoxicated to give consent.

Well the only evidence made public is that shew was according to the jury

I'm going to believe the CPS who have said a serious miscarriage of justice has happened more than a girl that allegedly tried to sell the story to a paper before going to the police.

Investigating was the wrong word. They are processing his application. It has been fast tracked for some reason not disclosed.


Probably because waiting the 2+ years it would normally take would limit his footballing career even further should it turn out he's not guilty

For all the poo poo cycling gets the biggest doping doctor of the 00's had to turn down work because he was so busy with football teams and a certain tennis player.

Its cool how by far the cleanest sport is the one with the worst reputation because they put some actual effort into catching people. Its pretty depressing you have to just take it as standard that any top athlete is doping

I still can't believe how open a bunch of footballers have been about injections, a club president talking about blood bags with player names on and whats happening with Fuentes and its never really talked about in the media

The charities watchdog has “serious regulatory concerns” about a foundation set up by the former Chelsea footballer Didier Drogba following allegations that less than 1% of the funds raised by the organisation in the UK have gone to good causes.

More than £1.7m has been raised by the Didier Drogba Foundation in the UK over the last five years but only £14,115 has been given to good causes, according to claims made in the Daily Mail following an investigation.
