i used to be sc_owl Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 At 14 you aren’t allowed to work are you? If not, then how can the FA have jurisdiction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scram Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 They're a law unto themselves Social media training is now mandatory in academies But not every kid attends an academy Also teens especially can say/write things they don't really have an opinion on but they want to create an effect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Following FA rules is explicit in the game but chasing soft targets (in kids) is setteing a bad example. S & H CFA's Ernest Kangley was ruthless with Kids and Amateur Players Bigger fines and Bans than league players for very similar offences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shireowl Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Same happened to Jarrod Bowen from 2012 when he was 15 are the FA really going back into the past tweets from kids raking up what was said from adolescent children ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Owl Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Really hope he defends himself against this and that it goes for assessment by a properly independent panel. If it does the FA will get absolutely mullered and rightly so. Total and ridiculous over-reaction to something that warranted nothing more than a quiet word out of the public domain.

Plonk Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 It does beg the question of what is the agenda here? Are the FA employing someone to trawl through every players social media history? Or has a member of the public / organisation spent time and effort doing the same? What exactly are they looking for, or hoping to achieve by finding idiotic comments made by children nearly a decade ago. Im glad we didn’t have social media when I was a kid. I’m capable of writing testicles now, hate to think what I was like at fifteen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 PDepending on the social media platform he wrote it on, there's a chance he wasn't old enough to have an account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trawling social media accounts for historic reasons to drag someone through the mud now is an absolutely insipid practice. Penny for Warnock’s views. Boro should stand by the player and tell them to shove it. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Willow Owl Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Can’t believe some low life is actually going through children’s accounts and then passing to the FA to charge. He’s obviously made a silly comment but there is nothing to suggest it’s the norm as they have had to go back that far to find it. The kid was 14 with no idea about life and life skills. Surely there should be a rule about searching kids media accounts. It doesn’t sit right with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ANDY Posted September 4, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2021 What gets me is that the FA are charging him over alleged homophobic comments posted when he was 14 Yet turn a blind eye to the World Cup being hosted in Qatar where homosexuality is punishable by death. 6 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
