yea, that's not how justice works. You can't punish a footballer for what other footballers MIGHT do in the future.

I do agree that footballers should be taken down a few pegs, but that's the job of the league and the media, you can't do it by just punishing this one person. He shouldn't be made a scapegoat for all of the problems in our sport and media culture.

I'm saying that the English FA and any other Football Associations need to ban anyone that commits a really serious crime, starting with this Ched Evans as his the most recent case.

Footballers and criminals in general should not go back to their lives as normal if they have affected someone elses life on purpose as what sort of punishment is that? Especially considering Ched Evans only spent a few years in prison anyway with the cosy XBOX, so I doubt his been punished that badly.
