Brewster and McBurnie Charged

[BettingBlade]

The dog refused to talk.

Lord only knows what ordeal he went through! Lost a few dog lives I'll tell you!

You try getting an Alsatian to testify

Could McBurnie or the dog nonce go through the civil courts for any damages against the other party?

I bet Lassie could

 

[Grey Blade]

Can the EFL throw the book at Forest now?

 

[Houston_Blade]

He hasn't suffered any loss from a few bruises.

The dog nonce hasn't, McBurnie surely has been through loads of mental trauma?! Fear of losing livelihood, online abuse etc.

[Chingo]

Now they can punish Forest for not controlling the crowd … close the ground I say for 4 games

 

[Houston_Blade]

Begs the question as to why it even got to court in the first place?!

McBurnie's off for a few pints and then a drive home

 

[tomgclarke]

That poor dog is going to get a right seeing to now... #prayforthedog

 

[Paisley Blade]

CPS docked points.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

He hasn't suffered any loss from a few bruises.

He managed to slip in the trauma has stopped him going to matches. Compo talk.

Could have been worse, he might had been a cat lover. They would see their owners boil in oil and flick a claw.

 

[bertieblade]

You can only imagine that the Forest dog lover has Been telling all and sundry That he is going to get a massive pay off etc. etc. whereas he now has to hide in his bedroom and watch lassie films until people forget about it all.
feel sorry for him, he obviously has a very sad life.

Netflix: from the makers of Don't fuck with cats, the new series, Don't make shit up when you're a Dog Nonce.

 

[Torrix1889]

Might as well Oli....your train is bound to be delayed...

 

[Davalon]

And you can bet you'd of had book thrown at you if you broke the cunts jaw

Probably yeah. I was carrying my 4 year old at the time though and didn't see it as it happened behind me on BL.

SYP were good about it tbf but I couldn't help thinking that if it had been a United fan, the repercussions would have been much worse for him.

 

[programmechap]

I get that prosecution witnesses may just have been mistaken. But might anything said in court by DN himself constitute perjury?

Theoretically yes, but the judge made no finding he was lying and , reading between the lines, it was probably "he says one thing, OMB says another, I don't know who's telling the truth so I can't be certain there was an assault, its NG". That being the case, its highly unlikely you could prove beyond reasonable doubt, the complainant was lying, which you'd need for a perjury conviction. Hence he won't be prosecuted.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Was looking forward to seeing the state of his prison tattoos tbh. Oh well.

 

[Harry's Game]

Restored my faith in justice a little. What a waste of taxpayers money

 

[Cappy]

he's a dog nonce and a fucking prick
forest won so he ran on't pitch
dreaming of giving his puppy a jerk
But there was our ollie with a smirk

 

[Northyorksblade]

Iv spent the last few hours at pub with some mates all forest, they think Brinkley is a "daft yoof" but would find it hilarious if mcburnie is found guilty. He better be not guilty or I'm gunna get some right stick in morning.

You can relax.

 

[cooperblade]

What a monumental waste of time and money.

Very harsh, he's been excellent this season.

 

[Sheffsteel]

It's just been mentioned "McBurnie found not guilty" on the Talksport radio news bulletin.
No surprise really but you never felt 100% confident with with some of the weird justice decisions made these days.
Kept having flashbacks to the Ched situation and half feared they'd sentence McBurnie to 6 months in prison, could only happen at United lol.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

A great day for the British justice system

That blokes poor dog will be getting a proper seeing too tonight

 

[Davalon]

Justice served.

You've commented multiple times in the 40-page thread. Any need for a new one?

Any opportunity to use bad grammar is an opportunity not to be missed

 

[Blade58]

All the pigs sat with their ears next to the radio in anticipation of a guilty verdict will now be accusing the judge of being bent

 

[JohnDenver]

Would be interesting to know how much the whole charade cost

I can’t comment on Magistrates proceedings but a day of running a Crown Court is into the tens of thousands of pounds. I know this because the judge told us when I was doing jury service and a case got screwed up.

And of course that’s just one element of the whole process.
