My concern is for the lass and his kid.

I don’t think they should have to pay for what he’s done.. talk of them getting married.

What were the police doing allowing him to see her during the arrest period/trial period.

He doesn’t come across as being sorry or remorseful at all.. from the outside looking in it looks much worse.

Name change and a career long conservaship in favour of his girlfriend/fiancé/mother of his kid.

I'd hope the victim gets the support needed to get away from Greenwood
 
I would not be happy if we signed him. He will need to go abroad and try to start again. He would be slaughtered in grounds in England.

I don't think I would boycott if we signed him, because I didn't with Marlon King or Gazza when they'd knocked lasses about, but no I don't want him.

I also paid to see a talk with Mike Tyson in Las Vegas once, and he's a convicted rapist.

Exactly atypical....
There is a definite slanted view of right and wrong.
We have enployed criminals before what's different..?
What is different

Society is packed with people who have previous offences and have moved on within sport and in life

In a lot of cases I feel its judgemental as he's flavour of the moment hate figure.
Others escape such treatment..
Gazza....being the prime example.

I would never do what he's done ...ever...but would I boycott the club...I don't think I would
 
It was a genuine question from me, by the way.

Was the Marlon King incident public knowledge when Middlesbrough signed him?

I can't remember for certain, but my recollection is that the accusations about him smashing a lass in the face on a night out came about either just before or just after we signed him on loan, in fact they may have come out during the actual transfer window/saga itself. He was convicted later. I suppose that could be slightly different.

Definitely not the case with Gazza though, who had admitted to physically terrorising his wife for 2 years. He got away with it (not just from Boro fans but the football community on the whole) for being a 'lovable' rogue, at the time the extent of his mental health issues weren't even entirely known, he was just a footballer with an edge who liked the booze.

But he was 'Gazza' after all. Arguably loved in Scotland more than England in 95-96 too.

If I remember rightly, Gazza came forward and did an interview at the time, admitting to what he'd done and said that he was getting help.

He may have only done that though because he knew the story was going to come out, and felt it would look better for him if he was honest and upfront about it.

Had a lot of PR folk around him too. Can't imagine Marlon King doing that would have had the same impact. :LOL:

Club backs player after charges

MIDDLESBROUGH Football Club has vowed to support one of its players after he was charged with attacking a woman in a nightclub.

Turns out they were well aware before the official charges were made, which is shameful.
 
I doubt that we are at his level. Saudi Arabia perhaps although they may feel that his attitude to women is a bit woke.

I actually hadn't realised, or forgot, that he felt her up as well.

Southgate backed him as well! Surprised this hasn't been in the Sun. :(
 
30 people voting yes is very sad to see, no surprise they have all stayed quiet.

If we signed him then I would be finished with the club, and I’m sure many others would be as well
