Danny East

Danny East hit two guys, hard (injuring them). He received a conviction (suspended for 12 months) and a Community Service Order. He now has a criminal record. He apologised. Apart from the fact that he's a City player, it didn't involve the club. I doubt that he's a destabilizing influence on the other players.

Jimmy, on the other hand, hasn't committed a criminal offence. His behaviour has a destabilising effect on the club. It certainly seemed to, with regard to Ash once he fell under JB's influence. And the (rumoured) Slovenian hoohah will, no doubt, have taken place with an audience of young (impressionable?) players.

How can you maintain that it doesn't matter what Jimmy does, as it's all off-stage?

How is it ?

Danny East was by the sounds of it provoked into giving someone a dig. A one off mistake that he deeply regrets.
Something he can be forgiven for .

Bullard has repeatedly taken the piss and shows not one ounce of remorse or guilt for years of arse hole like behaviour.
For ****s sake don't drag out you're 'it's all hearsay' bollocks because it's wearing thin.
Bullards behaviour is unforgivable .

Just my opinion mind .
Remind me again what Bullard has done?

No you're right he's done absolutely nothin wrong ever.That's why he's suspended until further notice .

Yes - I have a dictionary too. Your point?
 
- is my question to Percy. You don't answer it.

Because he's easily our best player and I'd rather not have 45 repeats of last night <ok>

That's not the issue here though, the issue is AP's rather obvious hypocrisy. Thought you AP lovers might try and change the subject though...

Change the subject? I was responding to your post on Chazz's thread about Danny East. On subject.

And - I'm not an 'AP lover', but your attitude is that of (irrational?) AP hater.
 
so someone hit someone he was being threatened by? sounds fair enough to me.

I'm sure the club are very disappointed with East's actions. However, he's a young lad who will hopefully learn from his mistakes and put this behind him. If he regrets what he has done as the press report then hopefully a lesson has been learned.
 
It would be interesting to poll how many of the posters on this board have at some time thumped someone.

What is the difference between them (and I'm sure the number would be, er, nearly all!) and Danny East?

Answer: a) He was unlucky enough to actually do some damage and b) he got caught.

There but for the grace of God.......

I can honestly say that I've never hit anyone in my life. Not even a woman.
 
I never have either, but that's probably my intelligence coming through.


You're quite right Percy violence really does show a lack of intelligence .
As such I renounced it years ago, I am
prepared to make the odd exception though .
