Danni Alves sentenced for rape, everything he achieved in football is now worthless. Seems Spanish courts are even more lenient than British courts which is quite something, 4 and half years for rape is ridiculous, should be doing 40 years minimum.

Not sure if that's more lenient. You can be out in six months over here.

With the amount he gets paid you wouldn't think he'd have difficulty pulling willing birds!

Somebody wake up the suspend monkey at Roma.

Fair play to the German fans for standing up against investors and that's exactly the problem investors in football rip the soul out of football clubs to get there money back and don't give a shit about the clubs or the communities there supposed to serve. German fans know this as they only have to look at the Premier League.

Good addition to Prison FC, they looking strong these days

Sadly just another example of how rampant rape culture is in these circles and how predatory a lot of our role models are

Whatever little power we get we seem to consistently abuse it, just seems a dejected fact of life

It seems he entered a restroom and raped a woman. How daft do you have to be allow yourself to be positioned there. If he did rape under those circumstances 4.5 years is almost token. Rape is a terrible offence, it strips someone of their dignity and control of their life. An appaling offence.

Welp, women are drawn to status like moths to flames and these guys don't take rejection well

A recipe for disaster greenmark

Given his vast wealth, how would you protect yourself from accusations of rape? For me, be squeaky clean and constantly aware.
So either, he's guilty or as thick as a plank to allow himself to be even a suspect. Being thick isn't a criminal offence but the effect is the same.

He's probably both. He initially denied ever seeing or knowing her, but later claimed it was consensual. Drastically changing your story is usually fatal to your defence.

I'm happily trading an OU market while the MO traders are screaming at the suspend monkey.

I keep searching the list under V for Villa.

Premiership markets weaker than usual. My OU bot struggling to close trades.

The Betfair live graphic is about two minutes behind today, and so too is the information bar!

Don't think I've ever seen an xG of 0.00 at 52 mins?

That's quite something

Took 68 mins for Everton to get their first xG on the board.

Saints go on an unbeaten 25 game run and just don't know how to lose. Suddenly they have forgotten how to win. Psychology is such a key part of any sport.

Another 1-0 grinding it out. Falling behind on GD though.
