Robin Perrie ‏@robin_perrie 36s36 seconds ago Def closing speech ends. Judge tells jury they will start considering verdicts at 10am on Monday #AdamJohnson

I'd imagine it will be Monday or Tuesday. Defence still presenting their closing statements now.

Def - girl said she had tossed him off - that was a lie...she said it was a joke #AdamJohnson

If it's true, then Sunderland have put themselves, their position in the PL and the money that brings in, ahead of the welfare of a young female supporter. Damning.

It's damning, Paully. Johnson has dropped Sunderland right in it, to try and shift some blame.

Paul Jeeves ‏@PJeevesie 20s20 seconds ago Defence QC: Girl has endeavoured to manipulate the truth".

Massive implications for Sunderland this- being dragged in further, by Johnson's own defence counsel.

Robin Perrie ‏@robin_perrie 23s24 seconds ago Def say #safc may regret that decision but jury shouldn't punish #AdamJohnson for it Robin Perrie ‏@robin_perrie 1m1 minute ago Def say #safc may have allowed him to carry on playing last season as they were facing relegation and didn't want to lose 1 of best players

Paul Jeeves ‏@PJeevesie 2m2 minutes ago QC says #SAFC may have had "commercial considerations" & facing relegation did not want to lose one of their players"

Paul Jeeves ‏@PJeevesie 2m2 minutes ago QC: #AdamJohnson did not enter plea until 10 Feb in order to earn more money. Plain #SAFC knew what was going on Wow.

His defence isn't exactly holding back yet at the moment. Obviously, the softer bit will come with regards to the other two charges which he is pleading not guilty to.

Andy HughesVerified account ‏@SkyAndyHughes Prosecution has finished its closing speech to the jury in the child sex trial of #AdamJohnson. Defence due to address the jury at 2pm.

Something about 'you felt turned on', which could suggest he fingered her. Up to the jury.

Craig Hope ‏@CraigHope_DM 2m2 minutes ago The video which started playing on the phone of Adam Johnson's sister & caused her to run from court was thought to be a make-up tutor

Paul Jeeves ‏@PJeevesie Miss Blackwell concludes speech by saying #AdamJohnson has sought to "confess & avoid". Sure he has not "pulled the wool" over jury's eyes. 4:44 AM - 26 Feb 2016

What a loaf of pointless guff - as usual. The gall if them believing that there is no crisis. Isn't that what happened with the Titanic? You get bet if we do go down - the club will move to blame one group..... Us supporters.

She will be able to make plenty cash on the back of this - if she wants it. Food for the soul, for the likes of OK, Heat and Loose Women.

They will be fighting over her for media deals, when this is finished. Magazines, TV, books, etc. That's why she's hung on.
