Would rather we kept Sam to be honesthttps://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/foo...ld-pave-way-for-sam-gallagher-swoop-1-9235599
Says we are interested in Ings which may mean Sam can go to Sheffield Utd on loan.
Maybe at the time they did then thought he's famous lets press charges. It amazes me how many of these cases come up involving famous people i don't believe any party involved is completely innocent and as fran says if it wasn't for who they are it would be dealt with completely differently.
If that is a sexual offence, most men would be found guilty at some point in their lives. Quite frankly I'd have told him to get his mucky hands off, angrily moaned to my friends about him being a dirty old man and forgotten about it. The only reason it has progressed this far is because he is famous.
Most men drive women home and kiss/touch them against their will? Just because you grew up in a time when men could get away with doing whatever they want to women, it doesn't mean it's fine and should be brushed off.

Hey hang on a minute..........What makes you say that? We didn't get away with sod all.........The vast majority of us respected our partners. If anything we idolised them!! Just as today there are some that will not take no for an answer and I accept that. However to classify all of us in that frame is way over the top.
Didn't get away with sod all? That's why there are so many retrospective reports of domestic abuse/sexual assault coming out from years ago? Don't pretend that women had anywhere near the same voice, opportunities or protections 30/40 years ago than they do today. Same with children. Don't get so touchy about generalisations because you treated women well. I didn't say ALL men treated women like that either.
nb - it's accept, not except.
In the bar I work in in Manchester I've had to kick out around ten people ever. More than half were from Stoke and I've taken a right hatred for the place since! Enjoy chatting to people from all parts of the country but people from there always seem to have a chip on their shoulder!My ex missus is from Stoke, god bless her, so this may be colouring my judgement, but there is simply no night of the week that is ever going to make Stoke look appealing.

I wish we would give Sam a go and actually decide whether he is going to be in our plans.

I not fussed about whether we give him a go, but I am somewhat against loaning him out again. I'm at the stage now where we either keep him as part of the squad, or sell him.
PS. This is a transfer thread guys. (Obviously not aimed at you Whiteley)
Maybe believe the victim of the assault. This is why so many women don't press charges or see it as a common thing. Toxic masculinity effects our society big time and women are harassed and assaulted everyday.Maybe at the time they did then thought he's famous lets press charges. It amazes me how many of these cases come up involving famous people i don't believe any party involved is completely innocent and as fran says if it wasn't for who they are it would be dealt with completely differently.
No one is saying it is fine. What is being said is that we would have told him to do one and dealt with it ourselves rather than going to the Police. It wasn't right then anymore than it is now but most women would have just dealt with it and probably would now. If it's serious then go to the Police and how serious it is considered really depends on the individual. We all have different perspectives. Above all both men and women should take more care of their own safety and lessen the chance of situations arising. And no that doesn't mean it's their fault before anyone jumps on me.
There is more domestic abuse as more women report it that is a fact. To simple wave away abuse or assault victims as "maybe they liked it" etc is disgustingWith respect I lived through that period and I'm not getting touchy about generalisations. Also yes history does tell us about how women were thought to be "second class citizens " at one time!! That is one hell of a leap though from someone that has been accused of sexual assault in this modern age. The second world war and progress into the swinging sixties changed those old fashioned thoughts and quite rightly so. The country was even governed by a women in the late seventies!!! 39years ago.
As for domestic abuse....strewth there is as many today as there was years ago. A recent survey also suggested it happens more today than it did in the 30s and forties......although granted there is an argument as to whether there is more publicity today for the domestic abuse. I would also add that not all abuse is male against female, just as likely tother way round, non of which is acceptable.
All the above does not shore up your argument about down trodden women in this day and age!!
