John Terry found not guilty and FA investigation

I'm chuffed with the verdict and thanks for asking!

 

I don't even know where to begin, you have failed to grasp my point completely.

 

The only one talking sense from the initial posts I've seen is BillyBob. United fans seem even less clued up on law than football which I didn't think was possible

 

Find someone that agrees with you, slag off everyone else good job

 

Doesn't mean a thing, just means there's more idiots than rational people.

 

You're doing the same thing easy to call someone an idiot.

 

One thing I've learnt in life is that you can't reason with the unreasonable. If the United fans on this page had a grasp of the law and had followed the case from the beginning like myself and many others had they would see why the verdict was given as it was.

I also object to people calling Terry a racist

A) when he has been proven not guilty in a court of law
B) when they don't know him
C) when they don't know what a racist is and have never experienced racism at the hands of one

 

But you are idiots, you haven't followed the court script and therefore your opinions are void simply because you watched a YouTube clip and saw a headline.

 

I understand why it was given, but it was clear what he was saying on TV in front of god knows how many. I said earlier i don't think hes racist just really stupid, obviously a criminal conviction is way over the top and it probaly should never have made a court room, but surely the FA have to make it clear this sort of behaviour isn't acceptable?

 

have you read anything i've written?

 

No, don't take it so personally. When I say 'you', I mean United fans in general. But take your response to DL for example, you've said 'he clearly said it on TV' which is what I have a gripe with, he has admitted to using the words but saying them in response to an accusation supposedly made by Anton. Ashley Cole confirmed in court that JT said to him 'Anton has just accused me of being racist'.

 

I followed the court proceedings and the script. I have read the magistrate's verdict too. The court delivered a not guilty verdict. It said that the evidence was not strong enough to have a safe conviction. Nowhere is it said that there was strong evidence that Terry was innocent of what he was accused of. Lack of evidence of guilt but lack of evidence of innocence too

 

But that's the case in every single trial, if there is no evidence then why the **** are you going on about it as if you have some irrational personal vendetta against Terry, are you really that bored? If this were some league 1 player you wouldn't be banging on about this, you'd accept he is innocent.

 

Easy to generalise against fans. Well ovcourse he was going to say something like that, because he has been backed up by his team mate is hardly proof either is it, its disapointing this was in court which im sure you will agree but to avoid any sort of warning, fine, ban from the FA is rediculous imo.

 

Nobody is saying the system is perfect but at the end of the day unless you have full proof or the case is beyond reasonable doubt you cannot convict a person. That system is in place to stop innocent people being wrongly convicted

 

See, there you go again, not using common sense and logic. Ashley Cole is friends of both Ferdinands and Terry, he is also black therefore would have no reason to lie for either of them. Terry wasn't just backed up by Cole, he was given glowing character references by an associate outside of football, Bosingwa, Bertrand, Wilkins, Buck and Mourinho, all of whom stated there was no way JT was a racist and all men of wealth with no reason to be paid off or any other ridiculous consipracy theory some **** wants to come up with next.

Terry stuck to his guns throughout the whole saga, since October. Anton's prosecution story had holes in it, such as the timing of the changing room 'meet' and of course the only evidence they had was a 5 second clip on YouTube.

 

Your naming people that Terry is friends with, i said i don't think hes a racist, but he needs to be careful of what he says in front of a live audience, by not punishing it sends out the wrong message. If you think he hasn't done anything wrong at all then were going to have to agree to disagree.

 

Very true and it worked here Terry doesn't deserve to have a criminal record for what went down, but imo a fine/ban from the FA would have been appropriate.

 

Well do you care to explain what you claim he has done wrong then because it's clearly going straight over my head?

and I know you don't think he is a racist, read the Ashley Cole part - that was my main argument.

 

Sticking to my answer, you're making no sense whatsoever and have completely failed to grasp any of the facts and are continuing to make up your own bullshit theories.

I'm off.
