The player will get his abuse just like Marlon King and Lee Hughes do. They both still have the right to continue their careers though, despite being twats.


Although I agree it did seem like a light sentence.

Hopefully he hasn't lost his ability in prison. Used to be really good for Plymouth

Harsh prisons don't work. This man is not a danger to society.

Good then, so if someone kills you, or more so someone in your family. If they serve a few years and do the time, would you be happy. The law is fucking bullshit and he should have served a lot more time at least, is it ok for people to go out and drink and drive and kill people and still have a life.

Sorry, but some things are unforgivable.

Do you think he's likely to do it again?

If it was cold-blooded murder, but it wasn't.

No, you wouldn't. You'd be worse than him.

What if he didn't kill anyone? Would you destroy him along with the other idiotic footballers who have done drink driving like Pennant and Defoe?
