How long do we think someone should go on serving their sentence once they've served their jail sentence?

I don't have any problems with him playing. Most people know footballers are, in the main, uneducated, unrefined lads who are good at sport. They're not diplomats... and anyone who's ever been to a football match will know that it's the last place you should be taking kids to give them a moral compass.

I agree with you Livia.

He's served his time, he's the one who's going to have to live with that "shadow" over himself for the rest of his life.

Let him play football.

And he was sentenced to serve a jail term, which he served. And now he's out. You can't continue to make him serve any kind of sentence once he's done his time, it's a ridiculous concept. If you're going to say that rapists are damned for all time, even after serving their sentence, then you're going to have to say that anyone who commits any kind of crime should still be punished even after they complete their sentence.

The information available to the judge and jury is of no relevance here as his sentence is complete and he is free to continue his life.

I just think the context of this needs to be taken into account too - he didn't violently beat her or stalk her and rape her in an alley; they were two drunk people who hooked up and she said she didn't consent so he was convicted of rape. He's not a violent offender or a likely repeat offender; he's served his sentence and his crime doesn't affect his ability to do his job. Let him play.

I don't think anyone would ever think it's okay, would they? It's a horrible crime, and despite him still upholding that he was innocent, he was convicted, so that's that. For the rest of his life, anywhere he goes, he will always be known as a convicted rapist. And frankly, if I was in his position no way would I want to walk out onto a pitch and face the chants and hate from opposing fans which will undoubtedly be relentless.

I agree completely... but you know that's not a particularly well-received opinion, Judy Finnegan will tell you that!

No country has the monopoly on rape, it's sadly a world-wide occurrence.

It sparks a nationwide moral debate, hardly an absurd question. Then again coming from someone like you I'm not surprised.

You can only have an opinion on rape once you've been raped? Are you serious? I have no problem with you either, and not to belittle your horrible experience, for which you have my sympathy, everyone is entitled for form an opinion. I've spent some time in the Middle East this year where rape is used as a weapon of war. I have an opinion on that too... a very strong opinion. The main one being that it bears no resemblance to getting pissed and going back to a footballer's room.

had to take a moment and thank you both Livia and niamh....Livia I am not saying you can not have an opinion on rape...its just that when it has happened to you your opininion whill prob be diffferennt.......again I love your posts

Kizzy 17-10-2014 02:34 PM
No means no, and if the person you wish to have sex with happens to be asleep/passed out you wait and ask when they are lucid... If you don't it's rape.

I can't believe I'm having to explain that.

Rape has risen by 29% in the last year, shocking and saddening statistic.

There is a definition of what rape is and this definition should be stuck to, however with date rape drugs being used it makes things even more difficult as there is intent behind date rape, if it can be proven that date rape drugs were used by an offender to gain sex then this is rape, the society in which we live in is ever changing and maybe there should be an overhaul regarding laws in this area.

As you know i have young teenagers myself and i've already educated them and will continue to educate them on the danger of alcohol and drugs.
It's not a bad decision on both parts. Getting drunk is only hurting yourself. A Man raping you was him attacking and hurting someone else. How do you not understand the difference?

You sound like one of those battered women that says "i shouldn't have made him angry" after her husband punches her face in. WAKE UP!
