Has pleaded guilty to grooming and having sex with underage girl.
Absolute cretin.
He's going to have a brilliant time in the big house.
And his Mrs is standing by him.
The fact that he has admitted a charge of "grooming" would suggest he knew how old she wasSo by pleading guilty is he saying he knew she was under age, or is it he did stuff, and she was under age.
Or could be in pleading guilty he is hoping for a more lenient sentence.The fact that he has admitted a charge of "grooming" would suggest he knew how old she was

That's what I thought, but then if he was texting her for sex but didn't know her age, legally he is still guilty of grooming isn't he?The fact that he has admitted a charge of "grooming" would suggest he knew how old she was

Good question. If a girls says she's 18 and then she turns out to be 15 who is legally in the wrong?
He still will be I think legally. IIRC he met her in a nightclub
The moment he gets out city fans will demand we give him a chance
Depends on how short her skirt was and whether she had lippy on or not.....and say it was her fault....
Once did some work on shows with a band who shall not be named *cough* S Club 7 *cough*. Had a security chap checking IDs on the girls they let backstage.

Well yep, if he met her in a club and she lied about her age etc.etc.etc. then at least he would be able to offer some sort of defence, but if he knew all along then the case should all be wrapped up in 10 minutes.Oh dear, coming out in court it wasn't that he met her in a nightclub like first said when it happened.
She was a fan, he clearly knew she was in year 10 at school as he asked her.
He has pleaded guilty to kissing her and grooming.
Not guilty to the sex. (he has pleaded)
Okay. But there isn't that much difference is there? Sexual contact with a minor or sexual intercourse with a minor.
By the letter of the law there may well be, but for me the 'minor' part is the key word and a sexual encounter is a sexual encounter isn't it!
And his contract with Adidas terminated.
Looks like his Football career now over?
