Can we start having breath tests before people post on here?

You'd better not be in the same state on Sunday that you got into last Saturday, Denbo.

I'm not holding you up or letting you fall asleep on me.

Might prove a bit tricky to police

Must be worth a try though

Best ask him on your forum Ash, he cannot reply on here for the time being.

Awww, it was such a civil conversation between him and red al too, I really thought they were starting to bond.

Haven't read the thread so I'm probably repeating what others have said but having just seen the video he should be behind bars for a long time. He is an absolute disgrace to RL and I'm ashamed to have him associated with the sport so I feel truely sorry for all the decent Rovers fans who have to have him associated with their club. The mind boggles as to what the judge was thinking and it sends out completely the wrong message to all the other thugs out there who now have the freedom to behave like that and simply use this case to get off with it. Anyone who was even thinking of giving him the benefit of the doubt surely cant after seeing that video. Just think if that was a relative of yours on the receiving end.

best read the 34 pages robbo.

He hasn't got time to do that, he'll be too busy playing Call of Duty.

til his mam says lights out.

I just have and you should be ashamed of some of the crap you've been spouting. Thankfully some of the more sensible and moral rovers fans have seen the incident for what it is. Try looking at the incident as if you didn't even know who he was, let alone that he is a rovers player, and see if you come to the same conclusion.

A couple of points. You could understand him protecting a mate who had been punched, you could even understand him throwing a few punches but once he is on the floor and defenceless its just cowardly thuggary to continue to attack him with the help of his mate. Even then you could possibly argue he was in a fit of rage and influenced by alcohol but he then comes back to dish out a further beating. Watching him walk away afterwards he doesn't even look that drunk so his thinking cant have been that impaired. Its sickening and he should be prison and he certainly shouldn't be earning a living off decent hard working RL fans.

he is scum and should be treated that way

People would be wiser to rail against the judicial system, and not individual figures.

What he's done is very, very wrong, but to make him out to be the be-all and end-all is not the way to act.

I'm sure he was expecting a spell in jail, we all was. British justice decided this was not so, and therein lies the problem.

Were you his cell mate while he was on remand?

Absolutely spot on

I ain't nobody's bitch.

If he had been sent down, that would have made Rovers board's life easier. The fact that the victim is in the HDM today listing his injuries (seven broken ribs, a broken nose, severe head swelling etc) is throwing petrol on the flames. People say (usually rightly) that FC's board is inept, but I think it's a bit odd that Rovers are saying "they don't know when the meeting will take place".

Maybe they should have acted as quick as Cas on their descision whatever KR decide..the way it is going in the media there will be a national outcry for him to be sacked

i did hear last night that the club will be releasing a statement at some point today. as for the hdm, they will print anything to sell a few extra papers as all rags do. tomorrows chip paper! the sooner this whole ugly incident is out of the way the better.

The Sunday Rags tomorrow..be like a flipping Kangaroo Court

What size brush would you like to use ?

I would imagine that it's quite difficult for the club to deal with. It is outside the normal day-to-day happening surrounding a rugby club, and despite having a legal mind on the board (tap-in), it's a case of asking lots of questions as to what the best course of action is, and i am sure it's not a decision that will be made lightly.

not sure, may ask auntie james and uncle kath!


TBF things like this probably will not be forgotten but should quieten down in a couple of weeks.

Cas clearly though it was not a difficult descision which puts KR under a little more pressure I expect..the rags are not interested in the level of the player inolved
