    I don't condone what he's done. I just don't see that taking all of his presumed wealth is any sort of appropriate punishment. That's why I responded to your post as I did.

    I do suppose on reflection that I commented in haste but I get a bit riled when people who are fortunate in their lives and should be role models act in such a way.

    Good tip.

    To be fair I was with it up to the last episode then i probably had too many disteactions to really concentrate on what was going down.

    Fair enough, we agree on that. Sadly, despite all their fame and money, some footballers aren't equipped to be role models. Thick as pigshit halfbakes is a description that springs to mind...:emoticon-0100-smile

    I lost my best mate in a drink driving accident in 2010. The bloke responsible was so distraught he has tried to kill himself on five occasions and is now in a secure unit being monitored (or he was the last time I heard).

    Genuine people who are remorseful and feel emotion don't deserve any more punishment than is given, going out of the way to be extra cruel is just vindictive and helps nobody. No, it wouldn't have made me feel better that the fella killed himself or had his assets stripped. It wouldn't have brought Tom back either.
