HarryBosch Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I've spoken to 3 regulars today who don't really do the Internet and they weren't really arsed. They weren't all for it either but certainly not dead against it and all were of the (mild) opinion he'd been hard done by..... Most of our supporters will be largely unaware of the fine detail of his case (as was I before Monday). Lets not forget that us over-opinionated internet cranks don't necessarily represent the feelings of our fans as a whole. We're still right like......

ShireBlue Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) First piece on BBC NW Tonight. Corney says they weren't surprised by the backlash and Barry seems to think talks are going to go on longer. Reporter said they've had fans walking past chanting "sign him up".

BP1960 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Wow Just :censored:ing wow... How unprofessional and armature was that. Total arse As if the media will go away and wait for a phone call, we all know they want to be first with the headline story, were there that many anyway they all had to stand out in the pouring rain? giving them the sponsors lounges and a brew might have been more professional.

PlayItLivo Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Also. The JC is the choice to give an interview. odd? Unprofessional if anything. The same can be said for Barry on SSN.

ShireBlue Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Nothing against the JC, but why go to them and not directly to the club's fans? It'll all get out eventually, but I can't imagine a great deal of us read this particular publication daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueatheart Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Barry isnt paid. Just saying. I imagine we'll take the focus off of the home game this week and Evans will make his debut away at Fleetwood, takes a bit of the sting out of it at Boundary Park itself.

Markspark92 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Were not the only ones and it's not the first time it's happened I'm struggling to see why we shouldn't sign him, I think SC is doing it because he genuinely as I do belive in giving people a second chance ! He might even be innocent what do we know ? I understand he's been convicted in a court of law but like many have said the case is sketchy and how can he show remorse for something he belives he dident do ? SC belives this will benefit our club to achieve something he wants the best for the club like all of us, Hughes was a far worse case then this he was banged to rights and rightfully jailed what he did was despicable, Carslile have a player on Thier books at the minute Courtney Meppen Walters he was jailed for a similar crime to Hughes but he was still signed by Carslie the backlash lasted a couple of days as it did when Luke Mckormick returned to the game, killers who are without doubt guilty of the crimes they committed, they were aloud to continue in the game so why should it be any different for Ched ? I hope he does sign and contributes a shed load of goals to the team, he was a very very good player for our level before he was put away and you dont lose your knack for scoring goals your born with it, I also have my fingers crossed that his conviction is overturned so then everyone can see he was innocent all along and what he was fighting for justice for himself. What I do agree on is the way the club have handled it so poorly they should have done all thier homework first instead of dragging out this long, I'm gutted to see people saying they won't go again just over this,the club shouldn't suffer, why throw it all away over a decision made that may benefit our club in the future, the team will have my full support on Saturday regardless of who's in it.
