Sunderland Chief Exec resigns

She has resigned because Sunderland kept Adam Johnson on before the trial. I am not saying that he didn't, as it turns out, commit a very serious offence; but whatever happened to innocent until proved guilty. A company cannot be judge and jury before a case has been tried. Some people might say he should have been suspended pending the trial. Same difference imo.

The 15yo is NOT on trial.

Anybody that thinks the 15 year old is an innocent is an idiot - Adam Johnson had to be punished because she is under age but her actions were not those of an innocent...

Wtf is that supposed to mean? She was under 16, and therefore could not consent, legally this is not a grey area.

It is shocking Johnson got 6 years and is viewed as a monster now.

Why?

Because Graham Rix and other footballers have done the same and did they get a custodial sentence or were deemed as a monster?

What about R. Kelly, seems to have a thing for 14 year olds or Billy Wyman seem to have a thing for a 13 year old.

But that is OK, is it. Or the past doesn't matter.

Roman Polanski is another, who likes to drug his victims before, but plenty of your favourite stars still like to work for him.

The media plays all of you for fools and you fall for it every-time.

You seem to be under the illusion we are happy about the other outcomes. What a pathetic strawman argument!

Sure, point me to the media campaign groups and the masses of public opinion that have sought to bring these men to justice and see them as the monsters Adam Johnson is.

Don't think you know what a strawman is as well. Ironic that you used it to create the illusion you defeated my argument by implying you are not happy about it equates to the the response Johnson got from the media, public and the courts.

You are trying to go at us using other examples that no one here has said they were happy with the outcomes. We aren't happy with those either, so don't try and use them to defend AJ or to try and call our condemnation of AJ. Get it now?

Also, any decent person would be happy that someone that used his position to take advantage of an underage girl but I guess you are not that.

Think you mean wouldn't.

But you seem a bit slow on the uptake, being happy or not happy is not what this is about.

If you don't see the disparity in the cases I have pointed out, then you are a fool. And they are far worse that what Johnson was found guilty of with younger girls.

And I know personally friends of mine that have been in the same situation and they are fine with it.

Happy and not happy, there you go again, are they the two extremes you go to, or is your vocabulary that of an 5 year old?
