There comes a point when Ched Evans needs a job. He has been found guilty and served his time. Is it fair to keep on punishing him ? It's not a case of he can't be a footballer because he has been convicted of rape. He can be a footballer but it appears he is not being given a chance because of public opinion. Maybe Grimsby Town don't want him for all the baggage and problems from others that it will bring and I can't blame the club for that. Sheffield United should have taken him back in my opinion and it wasn't a footballing decision that convinced them to bin him it was public pressure. I personally would have welcomed him at GTFC, providing he can still put the ball in the net and he is btter than what we have got.

Because it isn't and he isn't.
His sentence is still ongoing. He is out on license which basically means he is serving his time outside, instead of inside the prison system.
He didn't get time off for good behaviour, which is a different thing all together and until today was still protesting his innocence.
begging your pardon m'lud....thought he had completed his sentence....still... he is effectively released on license as he is not deemed a threat to the public...not interested in his appeal or his protesting of innocence as currently he has been found, by the judicial system we are all governed by, guilty of rape.

My apologies, I misread it. Thought you wrote it proves he is innocent which it certainly doesn't.
No prob. He'll probally end up in a fish factory at this rate lol.

If we had backers putting money in for Evans,
Will they still put the money in for another Div 1 striker ?
I thought Fenty said a number of weeks ago ( on signing THAT player ) money isn't an issue. I didn't understand that statement but waited in anticipation. If we have already signed THAT player i must have missed it, better give my head a shake pronto, oh wait a minute i forgot about Hamish.

But he is deemed a threat to the public, which is why he is out on licence and will be on the sex offenders register for 15 years. People keep saying he has served his time but he hasn't.

He still is protesting his innocence. Todays statement was based on the vile behaviour of some of his supporters towards the woman involved in the case. The reason he hadn't done this before was on legal advice. What I find utterly infuriating about the whole thing is the media mob rule focused on absolutely crushing the bloke. Sky Sports news and the BBC literally contacted every League 1 and 2 club to ask them if they'd sign Evans. Purely on the fact they wanted to pressurize clubs into condemning him. He's 3rd story on the BBC News only being 'beaten' by a 12 person flipping massacre, he had a full front page spread on a national newspapers sport section today. Oldham council blackmailed the club into not signing him by saying they'd refuse a stand if they didn't. The media are ringing every single Oldham sponsor pressuring them to drop their name from Oldham. 'Campaigners' sent death and rape threats to board members. Anybody remember any of this for killers, Lee Hughes, Luke McCormick or Adam Chapman? No, you don't because there wasn't any of this. It's an absolute disgrace that this whole thing has even come this far.

Which part of out on licence dictates he shouldn't work?

This probably explains why, better than i could. http://www.express.co.uk/comme.....-play-football-againI don't particularly agree with all the article but the problems he will face are apparent.
