Bob Higgins.

Jury finds him guilty of one count of indecent assault on a youth player and not guilty on another. Still deliberating another 48 at Winch crown court.

Either way by the end of it all he’s gonna be royally ****ed!

Hope he doesn’t get put in seg straight away, and is properly served up to the proper lads, they’ll tear him to shreads on the daily, unfortunately even that is probably to good for vile insects like him.

Enjoy

 

Conflicting reports it seems. Echo says still deliberating the other 48 while beeb says they couldn't reach a verdict and have been dismissed.

Hope the former is correct.

 

What this guy has done should not be underestimated, he's probably ruined 100's of lives, not to mention the collateral damage to families and friends?
Pity he didn't do the descent thing and dangle himself from a nearby tree.

 

Jury has been dismissed. I think they are going for a retrial with a new jury.

 

I see that as a nice way to go tbh, he really needs to be shown th error of his ways, and dangling him from a tree wouldn’t be justice for me.

 

Awful for the victims.

Very poor (though not surprising) for the Echo to get that wrong too.

 

Your right of course, bit of over reaction on my part,
I have a relation that was abused by a someone in a position of trust many years ago and it totally ruined his life in so many ways.

 

he shouldn't be dignified with a thread

 

****ing dirty ****

Hopefully that means he spends his rest of his life locked up.

 

Horrible.

I consider myself very fortunate, having been coached by him for a couple of years.

 

Doesn't bare thinking about mate. Just awful.

 

I knew One of the lads who was interviewed by South Today last year or whenever it came out. He had been one to have a bright future forecast and I remember playing against him at about 17/18... he completely fell away and hardly did anything on the non-league scene to the best of my knowledge. I was shocked when I saw him interviewed.

I wonder if Higgins is thinking about what happens after his sentence!

 

Club statement:

I find it hard to believe Mcmenemy knew nothing...


**** this abusing ****, guy needs to rot

 

Does anyone know if there's been suggestions of accusations of complaints not being followed up on or outright ignored?

I wonder if the club will offer compensation.

 

Few are suing the club apparently

 

Just seen another player on the news I knew, who has come out and said he was abused too.

Scary and shocking.

 

Piece of ****.
