As someone who grew up and went to school in Harringey, North London, let me tell you that you couldn't be more wrong, my friend. I remember that neighbours used to leave their front doors open all day and never get robbed. All night even. with a plate of sandwiches for any passing tramps. Down at the local pub, toothless pensioners would rattle out a few tunes on the Joanna (Cockney translation: piano), and everyone would sing along, including us kids. Sure, us kids were scamps; we'd do a bit of scrumping, and the odd game of knock-down-ginger, but it was all nothing more than harmless fun. If the local bobby caught us, he'd clip our ear and send us home with something to think about, but it would always be with a smile. Most days, you'd find Londoners dancing in the streets and singing songs about food. Mary Poppins was our patron saint, and probably still is. The streets used to be paved with gold, but that's all been half-inched (Cockney translation: pinched) by thieving Northerners, during an influx in the 60s and early 70s.

Compare this with how it is up North. Cobbled streets, run-down cottages with grimy back-yard barely large enough to swing a cat, flat caps, whippets, ferrets down trousers, ****-witted lynch-mobs, Jimmy Nail... the list is endless!

Aye, we look silly for lifting the suspension in the first place. Our PR department, laughing stock yet again.

I don't think you look silly to be honest, it was just a gamble, he didn't come back and do anything of note. If he'd saved your bacon and then got sent down for this, that'd have looked fairly bad.

Well you being a neutral that's reassuring mate. I think we look like idiots but then it's the latest gaff in a decade of bad PR.

I don`t think that was wrong tbh. At the time there was nothing more than allegations. Bit different now he`s been formally charged though.

I do, first the u turn and now another u turn is needed. They should have decided to either suspend him or not and stuck to it.

Seems like some have got him hung drawn and quartered before the trial has even took place....So much for being innocent until proven guilty eh!!

Guilty proves nothing for some as well though mate, just look at Ched Evans... this isn't a cut and dry case, it's supposedly one girl so his defence has to be that he didn't know her age.

Even if found guilty, people will still have his back if that's his defence.

Some people draw lines where they see fit, if there's enough evidence to charge him.

I wouldn't be happy about him being in a room full of kids, whilst still technically innocent, would you?
