Or if he was knowingly guilty he'd want everything to appear as normal as possible so he could get away with it.

Or he is so thick that he either doesn't care or even dare I say that he thinks it was fair game and sees nothing wrong it what he did. I've no idea but end of the day a jury will decide if he is guilty or not, and until that time he shouldn't be playing for us. And no one will say anything to change my mind.

What happened to innocent until proven guilty? He's been charged that's all.

Fuck off talking sense.

I think any evidence would see to that. I do agree that the club must be extremely confident in his innocence but, I do think the negativity surrounding it could cost us. Remember, referees are human beings with emotions, as are opposition players and it could be one decision that goes against us
 
The club's policy over this is unclear and inconsistent.

Why suspend him initially while investigations are ongoing only to lift that when he was bailed? He has now been charged, which is an escalation of the initial arrest that saw the club suspend him, and the club state he remains available for selection.

The clubs policy for any incidents like this should be as they are in many lines of employment. Suspend the person under investigation, with full pay, until investigations are completed. Then, depending on the outcome of the case, either reinstate the person or dismiss them.
 
Very poor decision by the club, morally questionable, but I suspect they have done it out of financial desperation at the thought of relegation. But he won't be right to play, his presence will be a distraction and uncomfortable for the rest of the team, and the shit we get from the terraces is hardly going to aid our plight.

The club is run by a bunch of incompetent idiots who couldn't run a market stall, let alone a football club.

I have made my views clear In the past on this one. We should not be singing song about him at all. He has Lawyers to support and defend him, he doesn't need us

I saw several female fans cringe in horror at the Hull game when our fans were singing his name for example

I've lost count of how many times a female that I'm with, or a female fan has asked "what are they singing?" so this is bollocks
