I wonder why

[GreasyChipBeattie]

it was always 'Rapist Ched Evans' reported in the press, but 'Footballer Adam Johnson' or 'Sunderland winger Adam Johnson'
Maybe grooming a child for sex is more acceptable?

Because Johnson hasn't been convicted yet. Next question.

Vile ,you forgot that bit

 

[Cyprus Blade]

and referred to as a SUFC player even when he no longer was.

 

[northsomersetblade]

Graham Rix got 12 months for shagging a 15 year old and he seems to have been rehabilitated by the press. He went straight back into his old job when he got let out.

Fair enough but Ched has acquired permanent new forenames since he got banged up

 

[boo radley]

do we really want to cover all this again for a player who had 8 or 9 good months for us.
Move on.

he did plead guilty to some charges though

How about 'Self-confessed paedophile, Andrew Johnson" then?

But seriously, it will be interesting to see the press reaction and how they report it.

He might have elbowed Santos, but let's not go overboard on his crimes.

 

[Gavlar]

In other news, neither of these players play for the Blades.

And because........"Low life, dirty bastard, peodophile, sex grooming child rapist Johnson" is too much of a mouthful

 

[Tyler Durden]

When Cheds conviction gets overturned (which I believe it will), he'll be 'Former possible rapist but definite cheating Welsh bastard Ched Evans'.

 

[JohnDenver]

In which case he'd be the perfect Blades metaphor. Full of promise, a fleeting moment of substance, on the very brink of a real success, only to be brought down by a combination of his own stupidity and outrageous fortune...

 

[penthouseblade]

I notice the ultimate cunt, Jean Hatchet hasn't made comment yet. If he/she is what he/she says he/she is; suerly he/she will be rearing his/her ugly head very soon?!

The fast tracking of his appeal really has been quick hasnt it?

 

[Blade82]

Adam Johnson's having a party, bring your play dough,
and your Barbie

I know it's serious but this made me laugh. Don't take em long to come up with em eh

 

[Pollingtonblade]

When Cheds conviction gets overturned (which I believe it will), he'll be 'Former possible rapist but definite cheating Welsh bastard Ched Evans'.

When will we find out?

 

[Tyler Durden]

Well I know there was some possible evidence that recently came to light which would've helped his original trial, so maybe that's played a part. I've not heard anything for a while mind.

 

[Tyler Durden]

When will we find out?

Not sure, it's gone a bit quiet lately after this new evidence in his favour came up. Can't be much longer surely.

 

[mosbolad]

Can't be much longer surely.

And that's the evidence for the defence!

That was almost a year ago wasn't it?

It's because there's an ongoing trial so it's against the law to write anything that might prejudice a jury.

Once his trial is finished, it will be open season, particularly if he gets convicted of the last 2 charges.

 

[PeteBlade]

Ched Evan's conviction won't be overturned.

 

[Gavlar]

Ched Evan's conviction won't be overturned.

I find it hard to disagree with you mate.

Thanks Sheff. That makes sense.

'Disgraced paedophile footballer Adam Johnson'?

Or maybe

'Paedo Adam Johnson'?
