They're absolute fucking arseholes. As bad as the Mackems with Johnson. They don't renew his contract and suddenly 4 days later he's charged with this? 

They fucking knew, and they continued to exploit the situation in spite of it. 

Horrendous.

 

Also suggests there's a gooner near the top of the CPS in the London area...his contract runs out and only then he's charged? Fuck off man 😏

Dont criticise when you dropped the screenshot with no mention of which clubs it referred to. Half a fucking job.

The Thomas Partey case really makes me wonder what's fair. Should we keep the player out of jail while he's being investigated or rely on the presumption of innocence while a trial is underway?

The reality is that Thomas Partey was arrested by the police and spent several days in jail in 2023, which meant he couldn't travel with the team for preseason training in Germany.

Back then, the press had already leaked a case of rape involving a player from a London team. It was never mentioned publicly, but the Telegraph did say he was an Arsenal player, so everyone knew it was him.

While he was in jail to testify, another case involving another woman was added to the mix.

Later, I remember that videos of him admitting to one of the women what he had done and threatening her were leaked. (For me, at that point, even if the court says otherwise or one of the women drops the charges because they reach a settlement, it's already clear that Thomas is a bad person, and from that moment on, he has my animosity.)

The Telegraph has been reporting more or less regularly on the progress of the case, that in the summer of 2024, Thomas was taken back to the police station because a third woman had reported him, and in January, it was stated that a warrant was already being issued against him and that he would have to testify and face trial in the coming months.

So, Arsenal's position strikes me as unacceptable, cowardly, and groveling. "Thomas is no longer a player for this club, and we cannot comment on that." No. Thomas was a player for your club while he committed those acts. Thomas was arrested twice for those acts while he was a player for your club. And you tried to renew Thomas's contract knowing what was going to happen. That he was going to face trial for raping three women.

Surely, moreover, the one who has not wanted to renew the contract has been Thomas himself, because if he ends up being found guilty, he will run away from England looking for a country where they cannot touch him (Saudi Arabia) and where he can continue playing football for several years, earning a lot of money and improving his image until what he has done is forgotten and expires.
