I’ll be honest, when it comes to working with kids I thought that was precisely how the system worked….I assume a child sex offender should be banned for life from being anywhere near children ever again? Including living in the same street as any?

He'll just change the name?Ironic considering where he's flushed his business reputation.
No, read it again - I’m specifically talking about working with kids.Does it - so sex offenders cannot ever live in the same street for life? Oh are you sure? How about rapists, murderers?
I am just amazed how you agree certain types are beyond redemption and rehabilitation
Popular decision on the SW fans forum as well.
Scumbag racist from Coventry game.
A spectator who directed a racist gesture towards Coventry City’s Kasey Palmer has been given a five-year football banning order. Edward Rabjohn, 21, from Sheffield, made the gesture towards Palmer during the second half of the Sky Bet Championship match between Sheffield Wednesday and the Sky Bl...www.owlstalk.co.uk
Charlie Nicholas levels of banter there torchIronic considering where he's flushed his business reputation.
But people can change right?Nah. No matter how drunk I would be at a football match or anywhere for that matter, I wouldn't be racist, because I'm not a racist.
Being drunk is an excuse. Chances are he'll be (or had been) racist when sober. It's in him.
They can but it's such a strange take from him. This isn't some backward village or an Eastern European country where they rarely see a Black face, but Sheffield. A working class City where some of his very idols for the team he supports are also Black. I can only imagine what they must have thought, job or not, to then go out and represent and be expected to perform to the maximum ability.But people can change right?
Some on here would have you believe their whole Fanbase is racist thoughGood to see.
Let he who casts the first stone eh.
I am 70 years old,and have made plenty of mistakes in my life. Leared a few harsh lessons from them as well.
He did what he did,has got his punishment ( probably won’t finish there) let’s drop it now. I am sure we are not all saints.
Fuck himSeeing his business and address being shared on Twitter is incredibly sad. We always let ourselves down as a fanbase.
Seeing those on here asking for a harsher punishment, perhaps they should receive a life ban from this forum for their ableist and homophobic outbursts…
Boosh againWhy don’t you share that energy for posters on here who have posted homophobic and ableist abuse?
How did you work it out? You’re so clever
Obviously great they have been identified and jailed but why not a ban for life?
do they have a limit on how long a ban can be over there?Obviously great they have been identified and jailed but why not a ban for life?
do they have a limit on how long a ban can be over there?
no idea, was the only reason I could think of they wouldn't ban someone for life, or at least a lot longer than 2 yearsNot sure, do we have a limit over here?

Think it’s 10 years. However once you’ve served 2/3rds, you can appeal to the police to be allowed back.Not sure, do we have a limit over here?
I think we are well ahead if Spain when it comes to prosecuting racists, this case was dismissed by the police/prosecutors and Madrid/Spanish FA forced them to prosecute. Vinicius Jr was racially abused on social media last season, think it was by Valencia fans, and the police/prosecutors looked at those involved and their social media history & decided they weren't racist!well played Spain. We need to follow suit….
i agree it's maybe a bit heavy, but they are clearly trying to stamp down on this.I probably need a tin hat for what I'm about to post, but anyway, here goes:
So firstly I don't know the background to the Vinny J case, but mine is a general point as it seems pretty unanimous on here that we should be applying similar action.
Imo it's too much. I'd go for longer banning orders, public shaming, personal apologies, diversity courses and even community service, but whatever the circumstances, when we have downgraded so much other criminal behaviour that doesn't mean jail time, then jail for insults, however abhorrent they may be, is too much.
If however we're talking George Floyd or especially Stephen Lawrence type crimes then that's different of course and they should throw away the key, but shouting insults unless there is a catalogue of previous or a repeat offender, jail seems ott.

there is an easy solution, don't do it in the first place.
I've got a slightly different view, I think they don't do enough generally but then go totally over the top in a high profile case to try and make it look like they're really trying to put their foot down.
I can see Robs point on this, and I say this as someone who abhors racism, you only have to look at my posting history on here.
But there's been plenty of appalling incidents where they could have dished out points deductions or ground closures and they've done nothing.
I'm really uncomfortable with jailing people over something they've said no matter how unpalatable.
Should be banned for life the fucking cunts
Agreed. I don't want to downplay how abhorrent this case is, but it's not rape or murder or violent crime, so I think the punishment is about right.I probably need a tin hat for what I'm about to post, but anyway, here goes:

I do agree. Not that I don't think racism should not be dealt with firmly as of course it should, but I'm of the opinion that prison should be a last resort for only those that pose an physical threat to society. Other than that I prefer restorative justice. As you say community service, rehabilitation, apologies, compensation etc.I probably need a tin hat for what I'm about to post, but anyway, here goes:

i'm not sure anyone capable of doing this is likely to get embarrassed,Agreed. I don't want to downplay how abhorrent this case is, but it's not rape or murder or violent crime, so I think the punishment is about right.
There's worse crimes where the perpetrator avoids prison time.
If he has any decency in him at all, (which is debateable) being named and shamed (along with the other punishments) should leave him deeply embarrassed. Although the ban should of been much longer IMHO.
No depending on crime they may be on the sex offender register for life and while on licence this will impact on work and where you live but woood be pretty hard to ban someone from living next to a familyI assume a child sex offender should be banned for life from being anywhere near children ever again? Including living in the same street as any?
