Ppl aren’t innocent until proven guilty. If they were then ppl would not be locked up for months or a year or more on suspicion of some serious offence while awaiting trial. Only to subsequently be found not guilty. But I do agree with you that ppl should not judge ppl before trial and if acquitted in a trial then ppl should not reach different conclusions because they think they know better. If he is found not guilty then treat as such. In Scotland they use “not proven” I think? Slightly different connotations involved as a result.

Think you'll find that the law in this country is 'innocent until proven guilty' Thats the entire basis of our criminal justice system.

But I can't be bothered discussing it further. There's transfer talk to be gossiping about :)

Typically only if you're considered a danger or a 'flight' risk.

The issues you raise can get very complicated.

The Scottish footballer David Goodwillie (unfortunate name) being a good example - charged with rape but not prosecuted as prosecutors decided the evidence was not strong enough. So 'presumption of innocence'

However Criminal injuries Board decided there was enough evidence and awarded some damages to 'her'.

She brought an action under civil law, and won substantial damages.

So is he 'guilty' ? If he is, not enough to be jailed on basis of sufficiency of proof..

And then you run into public opinion, particularly if you are a high paid footballer in a high profile job, as pretty much any professional footballer will be seen to be.


With Bissouma I think we need to let events unfold. But the timing to come to an end is uncertain, as the series of legal processes (criminal, CIB and civil law) took years.

I was trying to remember the case - David Goodwillie. Thanks
 
I think we'll make 3-4 big money signings, the likes of Bastoni. We'll pay the £51m for him because we want to show we'll back Conte.

Bastoni, rwb and a striker is where I can see us spending big.
Kostic or Perisic for lwb. £12m at the most.
Centre mid - Bissouma is £30m. Eriksen is a free.
Forster is free.

I hope Levy won't mess up this deal by haggling over a few £££. If he is the world-class LCB so many claims he is then £51m seems like a fair deal.
