Alleged racist City fan has been arrested. My bet is he'll get a ban from the ground, but not be prosecuted if he denies it. CPS, burden of proof and all that.

He's also been suspended from his job pending an investigation.

I absolutely deplore racism but I'm not sure how I feel about people potentially being sacked for things they've done out of work

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

If it is a criminal offence, which this is, then it's fair play by the employer as far as I can see. Reputational damage risk of not doing something and all that.

Working as a supervisor role in a very reputable company he’s never going to keep his job, comes down to reputation. Also comes down to a matter of trust to.
How would you feel as an ethnic minority and him as your supervisor?

At the risk of going of at a tangent the current prime minister hasn't lost his job for multiple racist comments, if the PM hasn't, why should this guy?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That's a bit whataboutery, with all respect.

Pretty much every employer I have ever worked for has had terms in the contract allowing for dismissal for criminal conduct. I know of people dismissed because of drink driving convictions for instance.

 

[Tredman]

This guy works for Kier, they are always keen on sacking people.

Oh Dear

3-1 to Leicester now. Targett very lucky to not get red for that as well.

Top 6/8 of the table usually is.

Agree.
How var says that isnt a red is fucking ridiculous, could have broke his ankle

 

[Premier Quality]

Ricardo is a fantastic player.

 

[Premier Quality]

Grealish runs into the back of the defender and appeals for the penalty... awful.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Villa are fucking bobbins.

Which is amusing.

Graeme souness - “Vardy has more chance because he has better kickers of the ball behind him”

I think he, Zaha and James are the most unlikeable trio in the PL
