Exactly. Which is what she continues to do despite the verdict. Absolute vermin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CPS and Nottinghamshire Police taking the Forestieri case out of football and into the courts is a new one on me - and I'd have expected they'd also be aware of the assault on Tom Lees, given it took part during the alleged Forestieri incident. Bizarre to have dealt with the two incidents so differently - one goes unpunished, the other ends up in court. I'd consider assault just as seriously as racial abuse. I’d consider assault MORE serious than any kind of verbal abuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I notice that BBC and Sky Sports aren't bothering to even report this yet, despite falling over themselves to report when he initially got charged and when he failed to turn up at court before. Although BBC Football are probably busy with their big breaking news story about Yeovil Ladies going into administration. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure when she get told to stop being a pr#t by her bosses, she will have been misquoted or had her account hacked by a K Pearce from the Mansfield area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insisting you can now say what you like and get away with it. Hope she loses her job because of this. Sadly with her tweeting that I expect that some of the responses will kind of prove her point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 All seems a bit of a waste of time to me. You think CPS and Police would have seen the evidence was very, very unlikely to get a guilty verdict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't he be mistaken if he thought he heard it and didn't? Bit surprised by the judge's comments (as reported by the guy I quoted before) to be honest. Seems very much to be saying that he thinks Forestieri said it but it isn't proven. Not sure how he works that out from the evidence presented.

It could be interpreted in lots of different ways, but I'm going with the judge is sure Pearce thinks he heard it, but he could have been mistaken.
