BBC Johnson free to play for Sunderland

[Randy Ostrich]

Club cant win. They've obviously spoken to him and taken legal advice. It's really a case of an employer supporting their employee. If he wanted time off then I'm sure they would've granted it.

Looks like Ellis Short is panicking incase he looses his TV money, don't know what he expect Johnson to do though his head will be all over the place. Could come back to haunt us after May 20th

Yep cringe is the best description I can give.

So you spent the game looking at loads of different lasses in the stands? Perv.

 

[Clatts]

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.

Agreed - or support them and allow them to play (if they are keen to) until any time that they are found guilty

The in/out doesn't look good

Suspended initially while under investigation but free to play after charged.

Makes sense.

He shags who he wants chant?

Sang by about twelve idiots. Most sang super Adam Johnson.

 

[Freddie the Greek]

Sunderland say Adam Johnson can continue to play for the club after he was charged with underage sexual activity offences.

Bad move

Makes sense.

Boycoutting a game you've already bought a ticket for.

Makes sense.

 

[Chappers]

Out of interest what did Sheff Utd to when Evens was charged. Does anyone know?

 

[Keith S30S]

I admit I'm surprised but the club, the PFA, the player and his legal team know far more about this than me.

He's been convicted of nothing so I hope he contributes towards us winning football matches.

I didn't buy a ticket for the Spurs game.

Aye mostly, but also the lady next to me didn't like any of them I think. Kept muttering about the people singing were "f***ing idiots"

I know I'm going to get shit about this on here but its the truth

I'm not going back, did you see the clip of the fuckers jogging suit and trainers.

Disgrace.

An explanation from the club would be welcome. They dont have to discuss the case, as do none of the supporters, but the club's policy for matters such as this should be very clear cut and the supporters of the club should be made aware of them.

 

[MunkyHeed]

CAN play, not WILL play.

Couldn't afford it? Scruff.

Not having a season ticket for the best supported club in the universe.

Makes sense.

 

[GBSAFC]

wrong decision made by club.

innocent till proven guilty an all that
but... i think the clubs just "sold" a bit of it soul

He played up to the trial, but then we all know he is innocent

Dear fans, he hasn't been found guilty of anything, cheers, the clerb.
