The Ched Evans Thread

[Franko]

Where'd it go?? Mods?

I suspect the person that started it pulled it.

Ched is in a real limbo. Maybe he should look for a team abroad?

[deiseach]

He's not going to walk back into a team after a couple of years of doing porridge. But as soon as he gets back to peak fitness and the fuss has died down (as it always does) someone will sign him.

It is with great regret that I announce my resignation as patron of Sheffield United Community Foundation.
I would firstly like to salute the bravery of my fellow Blades and patrons in resigning their positions and in particular Charlie Webster, Jessica Ennis-Hill and Lindsay Graham, in standing up for victims of rape everywhere.
I firmly believe that Ched Evans has the right to rebuild his career in football but rebuilding a career should not involve walking straight out of prison and into the shirt of the club he so badly let down.
I believe he needs to move away and move on, and the club itself needs to lift its reputation out of the gutter.
As a way of showing a lead to others involved in this torrid affair, I will be donating my fee from this month's Sheffield City Hall gig to Sheffield Rape Crisis Centre.
Finally, I would like to thank the Foundation for its continued hard work in the Sheffield community and wish them the very best for the future.

He should go to Turkey or somewhere he can start his career again. England is going to be too much of a circus

[seafoid]

Now the circus is at Oldham. It is like something out of mythology, the whole story.
He is condemned to walk the earth.

The 'earth' being the UK, seeing as he's not allowed leave the country. I'm amazed those haters of all things politically correct in Windsor Park have not rallied to his cause.

he needs to look for a different career

What the f**k has this got to do with Northern Ireland football fans?  What a ridiculous comment.

Seemed like a fair comment to me. Maybe someone not hated by the OWC mods could have a look to see what they say on their web forum

What exactly do you expect them to be saying? 

[moysider]

Things appear to be coming to the boil today at Oldham.

A lot is being made of him not showing remorse and apologising. He d be crazy to apologise if he believes he was wrongly convicted, wouldn t he?
If he had apologised he d have been back playing already imo.
