    Ex-England footballer Adam Johnson is to appeal against his conviction of sexual activity with a 15-year-old girl.

    Johnson was found guilty of sexual touching but cleared of one charge relating to another sexual act following a trial at Bradford Crown Court.

    The court was told the grounds for appeal had been lodged on Thursday.

    The former Sunderland winger is in court awaiting sentencing.

    Johnson previously admitted grooming the girl and one charge of sexual activity.

    Judge Jonathan Rose previously warned him he faced a "substantial prison sentence"

    ****in nonce!

    Not really, just explaining how these things work. . 95% of murder victims know their killer.

    Away from the hype what he did wasn't the greatest crime ever and if he was the local Chav/Ned from the Estate he'd get a 2 year suspended sentence. What with him being so high profile I'd expect the Judge to be a bit more harsh and go for about 5 years. More than that and Johnson's legal team will certainly complain that it is too long for a nosh & a whiffy finger.

    Not sure what the grounds for an appeal are, he's admitted what he did so is bang to rights and should expect at least some time away in chokey.

    Sorry Adam, it's 16 for a reason and you have to take what's coming to you.
