He's hardly going to accept any wrongdoing when he maintains his innocence is he?
He's been convicted by a court of law and a jury of his peers. The evidence must have been pretty convincing for him to be sent to prison. Non of us were in the court room and it's remarkable how people can just say 'I believe he's innocent'. I guess they must know something that the British judicial system doesn't? |

While I'll admit I don't know all the details to the case after looking on his website something just doesn't add up for me. I'm definitely in the he's served his time, let him get on with his life camp. I would have him in a town shirt tomorrow if it got us back into the football league.
Is a website dedicated to freeing Ched Evans really going to present the facts in an impartial, comprehensive and unbiased manner? Let's not forget this girl had to change her identity twice. |

I'm confused, are you saying a child shouldn't look up to someone who is gay or Muslim?
Not at all. |

There's being 'hardly angelic' and there's being a convicted rapist.
What's your point about gays and Muslims? Not quite sure what you're getting at but as far as I'm aware being gay or being Muslim isn't a crime. Having gay or Muslim footballers that are public and proud I'd argue would be good for society.
People make mistakes, granted. But going to prison is not just about punishment and serving your time. Even more so it's about reform and accepting the crime you have committed is wrong.
Your argument was decreeing that all footballers should be whiter than white. Yet we have many that are hero worshipped that are far from that. I believe that the man has done his time and should be able to once more ply his trade. Not saying what has happened is/was right. Would I mind him playing for us? It wouldn't bother me personally. |

Not the point I was making. I didn't say I think he's innocent or that the courts were wrong. You said he doesn't acknowledge any wrongdoing or show any remorse but he isn't exactly likely to when he maintains his innocence and is actively trying to get his name cleared. |

That wasn't my argument at all, my point was that convicted rapists shouldn't be put on a platform to be worshiped and idolised by youngsters. The role of a professional footballer isn't merely confined to kicking a ball around. Already have sections supporters chanted 'he's Ched Evans, he shags who wants'. As if this were some big joke. |

So then why compare not wanting Ched Evans as a role model to not wanting a Gay/Muslim footballer as a role model? |

It just doesn't add up for me, personal view, if he's still maintaining his innocence now after he's served his time. Look at the video of her and Clayton going into the hotel room, if she's so drunk she can't remember a thing then i'll eat my hat she looks to be walking fine (in 4 inch heals), I've seen people who have been so drunk that they can't walk/talk due to alcohol and she certainly didn't look like that to me. Again personal view from what I have seen. |

Would the ones who do not want to see Evans in a Town shirt,Say at what level who they be happy to see Evans play, ?
Sunday league or not at all,
I thought going to Hartlepool would have been enough extra punishment for him,
Maybe playing non league for us is a bigger punishment.
