I don't think it would go to trial unless they had damning evidence in a case like this. If found guilty, it's almost certain to be a custodial sentence in my opinion.

 

Not so, particularly in the current high profile sex abuse era.

 

We will find out what it's all about soon enough, the grooming charge and the fact that it covers a couple of months are a bit suggestive though. He'll be looking at porridge if he's found guilty after trial. I should think it will be 2 years or less on a plea so possibly suspended. If it has involved penetration then he really is likely to go to prison.

His appearance in court next month will be to state his name, address, and plea. If he pleads not guilty then it will go to a crown court, in fact even if he pleads guilty then it will probably still be referred to a crown court due to the nature of the crime.

He will go not guilty in the magistrates court as he will still get full credit for the first hearing in the Crown. If the case involves penetration it has to go the Crown court. The hearing on May 20th is to decide which Court hears the case, in this case it's something of a formality as each category on sentence has a range that exceeds the magistrates jurisdiction (2 years imprisonment).

So they are going to allow him to play.

 

They must be 1. Shitting themselves over relegation fears and believe he's good enough to keep them up. 2. Honestly believe he's innocent. 3. Incredibly stupid.
