    Ched Evans

    Hmm.

    Tricky one. He has shown zero remorse, he still maintains his innocence.
    On the other hand he's served his time (whether it was enough time is a separate debate) and so should be free to pursue a career.

    Hmm.

    I agree he should be free to pursue a career now he's done his time.

    In all honesty he's got some guts coming back to play. I think the question for Sheffield United is a moral one, do they really want to be represented by a rapist?

    He has served his sentence so he should be free to persue his career. I'm not sure I'd want him representing my club, but that's another matter.

    Also, ched is a terrible name.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    I don't see any Moral conundrum here, he has committed a crime and has been punished for it

    Just because the nature of the crime makes us feel emotionally uncomfortable, there is no reason to stop him from returning to a job now that he has paid his debt to society

    Sheff Utd would be gaining a footballer but conceding a huge advantage to the away fans. She was drunk Robin Chedders, she was drunk.

    He has done his time. Nothing wrong with him doing what is best for his career from now on. Sheff Utd are also free to do what they want. Starts scoring (a few goals) and the fans will be behind him.

    I'm guessing most of the people that signed that petition know no more than I do about the 'truth'. Depends on how much faith you have on our legal system. Messy area, couldn't give a fuck. What would actually be very interesting is reading what self-appointed bastions of morality, Gary Lineker and Piers Morgan had to say on the issue. Unthinkable that they could go 2 minutes without seeing which way the wind is blows.

    Not a straight forward one. His lack of remorse is only acceptable if he is appealing/denying responsibility but even then he has completed his sentence.

    He will get stick for the rest of his career now and arguably the rest of his life (not that I'm saying that is a just or sufficient punishment).

    True, he has served his time. But that does not mean people have to stop feeling or expressing what they think about him. While a now free person should not be denied the right to make a living, others equally, are well within their rights to not want to fund it.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
