The question should be. Would being a convicted rapist having any bearing on playing football?
If you suggest that it would, then how?
As many have pointed out if you've served your time in jail and have been let out. What happens next? It makes no sense to prevent from playing football because past convictions. You may not like him, and what he's done is wrong. But banning him from football would require a change in the law and set a precedent for other ex-offenders guilty of other crimes.
Besides, this isn't City's problem, or mine or anyone on this forum... Yet's leave it and get back to looking forward (getting nervous again) to the lads starting the season tomorrow at Newcastle.

I defo wouldn't want a racist rapist wife-beater. That'd be some serious shit right there.nijinsky's fetlocks said:I very much doubt Manchester City Football Club would consult me anyway.
Frankly, no - I wouldn't want a convicted rapist playing for my club, but then how far do you take any personal stand?
I wouldn't particularly want a racist or a wife beater either, but we've probably had both over the years, only we never knew.

He's a convicted rapist but once he's served his sentence he should be allowed to get on with his life. Lee Hughes killed a man and he managed to get on with his life and play football again.
I must admit I thought he was scum but if you actually read his website it does seem like it's not as clear cut as it seems and it does seem he was unlucky.
Although of course a website with the headline of "ched Evans was wrongly convicted or rape" is not going to be I partial!
On an unrelated subject his girlfriend is really fit so I do wonder why he decided to go a raping anyway!

Has anyone on here actually followed the case from start to finish?
The main reason his girlfriend, family and friends inside and outside of the football community have stuck with him is because the case was a farce from start to finish. Hes been made an example out of, when the details of what happened are sketchy. Girl on night out, wakes up next morning, wants to make money!
If he still played for us and Pearce was the boss then yes, i'd accept him. We put up with Joey Barton for long enough and hes done things far worse that arent even up for debate.

What did Barton do that's worse than rape?
And you can truly get to fuck with putting the blame on the victim.
As for the bit in bold, that makes no fucking sense.

Ched Evans has served his time and taken his punishment and is entitled to continue his career , I can understand any person with a position of authority would not be able to resume their employment , but hes a footballer , not a member of parliament and if he did somehow turn into the next lionel messi and knocked in 30 goals a season for us , I would probably be able turn a blind eye to his previous misdemeanors , (and some people say football supporters are fickle :-)

What if he raped your mother?
