    Although I'm a firm believer that until someone is convicted we shouldn't know their identity, like Micheal le Vell/Kevin Webster etc etc, what d'ya reckon the club do?!?

    Play him, drop him, ignore it all?????

    Be a strange decision to make regardless of the innocent til proven guilty philosophy.

    Ask him to donate his winnings to Barnsley hospice and let that be the end of the matter

    he needs to be dropped until the outcome is known.

    If he is played then every booking/foul/missed placed pass out for a throw by him will be questioned and and ridiculed by the fans especially if we are losing and not playing well. If found guilty then he must be sacked, because how do we know that any decisions he has made to make himself some money has not compromised the team or broke our own attack up, this just doesn't sit right. If found innocent then the club make a big announcement and pursue the papers/police through the courts as to why he was arrested and named with insufficient evidence to find guilty hence ruining the back end of his career because this will now stick with him.

    If the manager thinks he should play then play him. He's not gonna be up to no good whilst there's an ongoing investigation anyway.

    I think it's better for the club if Wilson plays him rather than making him an outcast in the dressing room. That would have more of a negative impact especially as by all accounts he's a bit of a character & a popular lad in the dressing room

    Don't think he should be dropped. He's not guilty of anything till convicted. Dropping him implies something is wrong

    I agree with this, I dont think this is serious enough to warrant suspension while the club investigates, plus the fact that he is playing very well at the minute. I'd be playing him until the facts dictated otherwise.

    first and foremost, innocent until proven guilty. that should be at the very forefront of all this. but danny has a decision to make, in terms of whether dawson is mentally prepared for the match and/or if the confidence of the squad would be affected with his presence.

    DJ Campbell was playing for Blackburn and is recently on loan at Millwall (after an internal investigation of sorts iirc). Sam Sodje is not playing since Portsmouth released him in July of last season. His brother Akpo Sodje whom he was caught talking about is playing for Macclesfield.

    That would be him admitting he is guilty. The club have to give him the benefit of the doubt as of now. We have got to go as we were. We need him in the team on Sat.

    I think he should play tomorrow. If he gets booked, gives away a poor corner etc I won't be questionining it because even if he's eventually found guilty he won't want to put more suspicion on himself by carrying on the same way tomorrow. Get him down for 1st goal scorer :) Le Tissier mentioned doing spot fixing in his book. Trying to kick the ball straight out for a throw in from kick off, only for his team mate who wasn't in on it to jump high to head it and keep the ball in play.

    He'll play tomorrow.

    He posted on Twitter that he has been released, he has not been charged and will be available for tomorrow's 2-2 draw with Brighton.

    He should be placed in the stocks at the clubs training ground while the other players throw rotten vegetables at him. He should then be paraded through the town to the town hall, where a public execution should take place. I think this would show us fans how bfc view such matters.

    If he's mentally right to play then of course he should play. He's not even been charged with anything.

    Innocent til proven guilty. Not even charged. If he is in the right frame of mind, he should play.

    That said, if he were found guilty, I wouldn't want him in a Barnsley shirt again.

    I remember when Jonathan Woodgate and Lee Bowyer were on that charge of assault; Woodgate went to pieces, and Bowyer played the best football of his life.
