Fenham Mag Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 So SAFC are pleading ignorance, and Byrne will probably not even get the chop! Basically they are saying Johnson was lying in court. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnufc Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Notable that they only deny knowing he was going to plead guilty, not addressing the claims made by Johnson that he told them about the kissing and showed them the grooming messages, the two counts he eventually pleaded guilty to. The chief police inspector on the case said in court, under oath, that the club were aware of the kiss and had copies of ALL WhatsApp messages.

BlueStar Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Mike Anstead @mike_anstead 10m10 minutes ago Adam Johnson http://dailym.ai/1RofKEv I'd heard that during the trial, that he was being very arrogant and dismissive, yawning, joking about etc. Seeing as it wasn't reported, presumed there was some kind of block on it.

geordiedean Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 To think in October this dirty dirty bastard ran the full length of the pitch mimicking an aeroplane to goad our fans after scoring knowing exactly what he'd done Seeing this cunt in highlight reels condemning us to defeat is fucking awful now Beaten by a nonce mackem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1964 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 They aren't pleading ignorance only that they did not know he was pleading guilty. They saw the condemning evidence last year and did nothing. They are a disgrace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I notice their statement dodges the fact he admitted the kiss. Just talks about the way he was going to plead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Notable that they only deny knowing he was going to plead guilty, not addressing the claims made by Johnson that he told them about the kissing and showed them the grooming messages, the two counts he eventually pleaded guilty to. They mention receiving documents regarding the case. It's a pretty weaselly statement in that everything in it is likely true but still doesn't tell the whole story. The question isn't whether or not they knew how Johnson was going to plead, it's whether or not they knew that he was guilty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Sunderland's statement is a woeful attempt at justifying unsuspending him and then playing him. It almost reads that he did well to continue to perform with the charges hanging over him. Shameful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
