I think that the encroachment charge is difficult to push in this instance as thousands were on the pitch, might be wrong though.
I did think that but I'm sure they could have charged him still. Probably made a deal of sorts. Either way it's an awful sentence.
6 months is the highest magistrate's can give anyway isn't it? Suspect it's all around court space as much as anything.
and prison space . the whole criminal justice system is ****ed right now. Edit : actually pretty much everything is ****ed right now
My childhood mate Stan had pretty severe cerebral palsy but i swear he was more stable on his feet than Gordon
So as it stands, if Everton lose, Burnley draw and Leeds win their next games. Toffees are down. Everton play the toughest team, away.
I often see in local papers where some incident has been dealt with nowt more than a slap on the wrist, so was quite surprised he got 6 months for a bust lip tbph. Plus not forgetting as a football incident he gets a banning order as well, so punished twice. Where's if he'd busted his lip on the street, most ppl wouldn't have given a shhite.
Everton are still likely to survive because I don't see Burnley getting a win or Leeds beating Brentford. Everton did just enough I think
