Hales and Stokes

[Mackem00]

It’s not

Fuck all happened

Slap on the wrist and a night in the cells

It’s all it ever should have been and it’s all that would have happened to me

Took it to court because it was Ben stokes

I imagine you'd take a broken eye socket in a similar blaze fashion. Whilst your innocent mate got knocked out.

Bit of a dodgy message sent out by the jury but it's all over now and no-one was seriously hurt thankfully.

Hopefully he's learned to steer clear of this type of carry on in future.

He's not guilty. Fuckin ridiculous the media smear campaign against him and by some law experts on here. I'm pleased for him and he's conducted himself very professionally.

During the case he has indeed. As he had to

But to say he has behaved professionally is most certainly not true. Professional is not going out and getting tanked up and getting in fights

 

[The Rat]

Well it wasn’t a complete non story. I’d like to think that where there are incidents involving violence in our society it will be properly investigated and considered by our authorities like.

Only if you get a conviction

Complete waste of our money

What media smear? Examples please.

Can't believe he missed the ashes for this

Yeah I’m not agreeing on the last bit

He’s an idiot obviously

But that’s completely separate to the smear campaign and farcicle trial

 

[Ageing trundler]

Some would go out and have a few pints to celebrate good news like that.

That’s one of the most ridiculous statements with regards to a justice system I’ve ever read

Mate he’s not guilty

Say what the fuck you want, you’re wrong

The last week on the BBC/ITV have been disgusting. They have believed every word that has painted Stokes in a negative way. "Stokes hurled homophobia abuse". Conveniently no mention in any media outlet of the bouncer proven in court to be a liar though.

No it’s not

That incident should have never got to court, that’s fairly obvious

Absolutely

Some people are gutted they're wrong about this verdict.

I thought he should be punished for breaking someone's eye socket. I'm not upset that he's been found not guilty ffs.

I'm surprised he was mind.

 

[Steak Pie]

Purposely avoided this thread during the trial for obvious reasons, but I'm pleased the jury came to a swift verdict. Should never have gone this far.

That's quite an exact amount.

 

[Herberthall]

There seems quite a few on here disappointed he was found not guilty.

Stokes and Hales now face ECB independent disciplinary committee, likely to face charges of bringing the game into disrepute. Might take a few days, up to a week to convene.

Surely media outlets should only be reporting on what has been said in court and not claiming "definites" that exist only as accusations or one side of a story.

There surely must be links to this great media smear led by BBC and ITV.
