Adam Johnson Trial Verdict

[Scotty 1978]

Detailed meeting took place, she new he's sent messages doesn't state wether Byrne new the context of them, but new he had kissed her, all coming from Radio Newcastle

You accept there is a big difference between knowing somebody kissed an underage girl and knowing that they broke the law then?

You don't seem to have accepted this fact so far in any of your many posts on this thread.

Do you not understand the issue of him playing isn't if he broke the law but if he kissed an underage girl?

Time for Shorty to get off his arse

They you go. Seriously, it's not good for the club.

Or more specifically, not good for the CEO.

She has to go, it's very clear. Shameful

 

[Ambivalent Dave]

I suspect Det Insp Sampson's job to be at risk if he is sharing evidence before a trial

This sits very uneasily with me too. What's the deal with sharing evidence here?

Byrne was told that he had messaged and kissed a child. What part of that are you struggling to get your head around?

Byrne was told about the charges, what part of that are you struggling to get your head around?

WTF happened to him?

I became reiver apparently

 

[Doberman]

That doesn't tell us anything, other than the club knew the allegations. What's your point?

They knew he'd groomed and kissed an underage girl. If the club genuinely thought he was going to plead not guilty even with that evidence in front of him, then Byrne and the gang must be a bit dense.

 

[The Master]

The whole point of what?

The club have stated they had no knowledge which would allow them to ascertain his guilt.

And so the circle begins once more, this is ridiculous.

Yep. She can not outlast this sham.

He was pleading not guilty at the point. He hadn't admitted to anything.

He hadn't admitted anything in court. He had however admitted it to the Club. Different things entirely. His plea is completely irrelevant - it's a red herring thrown into the statement to distract from the real issue.

Which he said in Court, I think his words were he outlined the nature of the allegations but didn't give the full facts. The club then did risk assessments and put safeguarding practices into place. I'm sure somebody clever than me will be able to find the exact comment that he made in Court, it was quoted enough.

No. She had been told that it did happen.

It's illeagal. Someone in is his position should know that

 

[luvulongtime]

The club will stink forever, probably. But I won't be self flagellating, because I have done nothing wrong.

you executed Charles the first you lying bugger

 

[Sweeper]

That would mean the statement they put out was an outright lie.

Do you have a source for this because I haven't seen one?

How? The club haven't said anything about that either way. Deliberately it seems.

 

[CARLOS CLASS]

Yep. She can not outlast this sham.

Agreed. Her position is untenable

 

[Doberman]

It doesn't though does it.

are you deliberately ignoring the 2nd paragraph?
