Cookie1892 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 jails the best place for him he is never ever going to be able to go out in public again Wouldn't be so sure of that since he was getting asked for autographs last Friday when this was taking place. really? some people have no morals, who would do that? maybe it was before the texts were read out. seriously though, i cant see how he could go anywhere in peace again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmonkey Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Is this the end of his professional career then? Have there been any instances of convicted paedos returning to the game? Just had a terrifying thought that he could end up here if he's let off lightly and this all eventually blows over (especially if we're in the Championship). Ashley might see it as another (former) fringe England international available for peanuts (don't imagine he'll be able to demand much in wages if he does return to the game). Not like SD or Wonga aren't used to negative publicity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Graham Rix got 12 months in 1999 for having sex with a 15 year old. Joined Chelsea immediately after his release and was managing Pompey by 2001. Cant see it with Johnson though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joined Chelsea immediately after his release and was managing Pompey by 2001. Cant see it with Johnson though. Just reading about the Rix case.... it went further than this one seems to have, i.e. full sex at a hotel - but apparently she lied about her age, whereas Johnson was fully aware this girl was only 15. Shocked that Chelsea made statements on his sentencing that they'd keep his job open for him, as its what all the players and staff (allegedly) wanted. Gotta hope things have moved on sufficiently for Johnson to go down and never be seen/heard of again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heake Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Regardless of the outcome of the trial, he has admitted to being a nonce.

Hanshithispantz Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 As bad as the Lee Hughes incident was I think it's right he should be allowed back into football like, I'd say the same for most criminals. If you're grooming a 15 year old girl then you're obviously completely fucked in the head though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye...massive difference between causing a road accident (Albeit a fatal one) & actively pursuing a child with a view to noncing. The point being that this was a premeditated act rather than a moment of stupidity...against a child Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Conor Wigwam apparently called the police after becoming aware of mentions of it on social media.

Hanshithispantz Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 How is he (as a person) any different though than if he'd drunk drove and didn't kill any kids, like loads of people do?

Wullie Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The permanently-outraged on Twitter haven't got time to be concerning themselves with dead children. Any form of sexual abuse trumps any other crime at the moment. I think I've posted about this before, whatever you think of him it's outrageous that Evans can't get a club without threats being made against the owners while other people who've committed (IMO) worse crimes can rejoin without a murmur. Drink driving's not quite so trendy to "campaign" against on the internet so McCormick's fine to have at your club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
