I thought it was Common knowledge with him.... Whispers for years

I have no idea. I only know that the press are sitting on a story. Think some printed it today without naming names.

To use a well worn phrase... its a funny old game is football eh?

When you think about as well as operating in a different financial world to the rest of us it has to be said that in the past there have been proven cases about Scout Masters, childrens homes and priests and the like with young boys yet clearly football clubs and youth set ups will be teeming with young lads yet somehow we are supposed to believe this sort of thing is a one off. Never happened before or since despite the evidence to the contrary - couple of bad apples over the years etc etc. However in other walks of life in the real world its well known that sort of environment is a magnet for peado's - they like to get into these organisations and avail themselves of what they see is on offer. Yet football has and probably will be in denial. As I say funny old game as it seems anybody involved in football couldn't possibly be a paedophile could they? I mean its not as if there are any gay footballers either.....

I love the game but there are aspects you cannot help but question.

This.

There was a discussion on talkshite about it this morning where the jurno said we could be looking at another Savilleesque situation. If that's the case, along with the corruption why aren't journalists investigating it?

Whilst he was fiddling with kids he was actively running around buying bent swag from house burglaries....he bought so much he opened a shop and kept his face straight.

Not sure how much I'm allowed to say but the press, more specifically The Guardian, are about to break a story about DG. All very sad if true, he's been a well respected manager for decades.

Who's DG?

Maybe they are and just keeping it quiet for now - but as I say football seems to be in a different world

I played for Whitehill 70s, coach used to rub legs of players before Match. Was it j homes. Anyway city got rid of him and hushed up things. Think he fled to Canada or something.
Bennell had SENRAB about this time. Asked me to play after whitehill disbanded, didn't go.
Later Was at Rochdale and rumours rife then about Mr Dg. At Crewe.
