The evidence was leaked on Instagram and Twitter at the beginning before he was arrested.

It was fairly damning.

It wasn’t leaked, the girl put it on Instagram herself iirc & he was questioned initially on the strength of that...
It was very damning indeed and he's incredibly stupid, guilty or not guilty, to break his bail conditions that have led to his arrest.
I just hope justice is served one way or another, the truth will out...

Ex already pumping out that we're unlikely to spend much in January.

Getting in early.

He has said we'll likely go back in for Ola Aina.

09 Apr 1923.....D2.... Hull City H 3-0
07 Apr 1923.....D2.... Crystal Palace H 1-1
02 Apr 1923.....D2.... Bury A 5-2
31 Mar 1923.....D2.... Crystal Palace A 5-1
30 Mar 1923.....D2.... Bury H 0-0
24 Mar 1923.....FA SF. Derby County N 5-2

Anybody see the story about Paul Mullin's boots? Wrexham have said he's not allowed to wear them on the pitch for them.

One dead and Arsenal player among several injured in Italy stabbing
One person has died and at least four others injured - some seriously - in a stabbing in a supermarket near Milan, northern Italy, reports in local media say.

They say a 30-year-old cashier of the Carrefour supermarket died after a man started attacking people in Assago.

Among the injured was Pablo Mari, a football player on loan from Arsenal.

A 46-year-old suspect has been detained. Police have ruled out any terrorist motive.

The attacker has had mental health problems, the reports say.

They say he started stabbing people at random at about 18:30 local time (16:30 GMT) at a Carrefour in a local shopping centre.

Screams were reportedly heard inside the centre, as terrified visitors tried to flee in panic.

The attacker is reported to have been detained by several customers and handed over to police who arrived at the scene.

I was just having a look through our U21s results and it seems for prodigy Jay Spearing played for Liverpool U21s against us recently. At the tender age of 33.

He seemly left Liverpool almost 10 years ago, playing mainly in League 1 and 2. But now is a youth team coach for them.

Thought it was a bit odd. You shouldn't really be able to play senior players in U21s unless they are registered for the senior squad imo.

Obs we have bigger concerns but it seemed strange.
