Just been on sky sports football front page! Story is on about Johnson, but next to that is about Henderson signing new 5 year 100K contract at Liverpool. I think that one page really sums up how far we've come over the last few years! Very sad state of affairs for all concerned!
I hadn't seen any pictures... seems he's getting used to wearing a tracksuit nice and early. FFS, who turns up in a tracky to answer bail?
The answer to that question, judging from my hometown's most local courthouse (Newton Aycliffe) is nearly everyone Although, you'd hope for better given Johnson's occupation. FFS who over the age of 16 still wears a hoodie?
As someone who grew up and went to school in Harringey, North London, let me tell you that you couldn't be more wrong, my friend. I remember that neighbours used to leave their front doors open all day and never get robbed. All night even. with a plate of sandwiches for any passing tramps. Down at the local pub, toothless pensioners would rattle out a few tunes on the Joanna (Cockney translation: piano), and everyone would sing along, including us kids. Sure, us kids were scamps; we'd do a bit of scrumping, and the odd game of knock-down-ginger, but it was all nothing more than harmless fun. If the local bobby caught us, he'd clip our ear and send us home with something to think about, but it would always be with a smile. Most days, you'd find Londoners dancing in the streets and singing songs about food. Mary Poppins was our patron saint, and probably still is. The streets used to be paved with gold, but that's all been half-inched (Cockney translation: pinched) by thieving Northerners, during an influx in the 60s and early 70s. Compare this with how it is up North. Cobbled streets, run-down cottages with grimy back-yard barely large enough to swing a cat, flat caps, whippets, ferrets down trousers, ****-witted lynch-mobs, Jimmy Nail... the list is endless!
They're useless at most times in terms of PR but it's better to get it right than get it rushed in a case like this.
Come on... (haw'ay) pops, he's a grown man, if his solicitor is wearing a suit, he should make the effort.
A pass can be allowed for sporting purposes. But being a sportsman doesn't give you reign to dress like it whatever the occasion. He'll probably turn up to court in full kit, shinpads and all.
Innocent until proven guilty for me simple as. However I'm worried the the club haven't released a statement explaining that he's back under club suspension. This statement should have been ready for instant release.
