So if Ched Evans signed for us would you stop going to Oakwell?

Not for Barnsley though which is what the thread is asking

 

No I wouldn't stop going. It would be a stupid move signing him in that they'd bring the permanently morally outraged media to the club, but we could sign the reanimated corpse of Colonel Gaddafi and I'd still go.

Whilst the faux-outrage from the daily mail and mumsnet brigades would be strong, it would take a lot more than that to shame me into handing my newly-bought half-season ticket back.

 

absolutely not

Don't agree with it but wouldn't stop going

Wonder how many would start going again if he scored 20+ goals

Yes I'd stop going, after 33 years. I'd be ashamed of my club, but I think the question is irrelevant as I honestly believe we would never even entertain it.

 

i wouldnt stop going but i wouldnt clap for him or support him

 

Would you celebrate if he scored ?

Genuine question

yeah i know and i answered truthfully

 

Morals are more important than ******* football.

 

I was replying to a earlier post where the person said he doesnt have a divine right to play football again becausr he is a convicted rapist. The point I was making is other people have continued there careers in football.

 

Yes

 

I can't see how anyone can sign him. I wouldn't pay to watch him for us or playing against us . I hope that those that do watch him give him the constant grief he deserves and drives him out of football for good

 

I guess only for some

 

I would possibility applaud the goal but I wouldn't cheer like I do any other Barnsley goal. All theoretical though because I probably wouldn't go.

 

I agree 100% but sadly not everyone does. You only had to listen to the blunt morons on radio shitfield when he was training with them to know that.

 

No. He's only a player in a team.

 

Fair point didn't see that post tbf.
Few different points with the others though and I'm not defending them as if I had my way none of them would be playing.

1.he is unrepentant.the attempt at a plea for redemption with his girlfriend was pathetic IMO but showed him to be the person that is definitely not repentant.

2 a comeback into football should be the last thing on his mind if he is trying to clear his guilt as far as everyone is concerned a court of law has found him guilty and that is what he is until a court of law says otherwise.

3 non of the others have denied their crime and served their time and been seen to be repentant. As I stated I dont agree with them returning to football but the criteria was met.also they didn't set out to commit their crimes they were more or less the result of their stupidity. Evans however had planned well in advance.

Another thing that gripes me is the fact that some fans would welcome him back knowing it would split the fan base.
Even if I didn't give a fek about his crime I wouldn't want him back for that reason. Some of the Blades fans attitudes and reactions were pathetic IMO.

 

Yes I would stop going. There are other lines of work Evans could do away from Football.

 

A question I would like to ask is....................

if it was your Daughter he had raped and you said you would go and watch him in a Barnsley shirt could you ever look her in the face again?
