TV Tom Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 Barton's 3 game ban upheld, obviously he didn't have an expensive slimy lawyer to bail him out this time Barton initially denied two of the three charges before later admitting them and expressing remorse over his actions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay I did but I’m sorry….let me off please?” ”I didn’t spit or slap that girl twice…okay I did. But I was drunk. Forgive me please?” “But we submitted planning permission….no it wasn’t accepted before we built the glorified steel tent which was wrong but can we keep it up, please?” Running theme here. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviestevieneville Posted July 9, 2023 Report Share Posted July 9, 2023 On 08/07/2023 at 09:13, Miah Dennehy said: I still stand by what I said in my original post btw, there are many, many crimes, committed by all sorts of people, not just footballers and the hypocrisy of the lynch mob knows no bounds, but that's all part of the modern world I'm afraid, along with vacuous meaningless statements put out by corporations, including football clubs, whenever they feel like they should be 'being seen' to be doing something. It's all incredibly depressing. Oh, and one more thing that got my goat, although it could just be me overthinking things. The welcome to Rovers post that was put out for Jevani Brown showed him in the kit with his kids. I don't think I have ever seen a welcome pic like that before, the cynical among us may be tempted to believe that was an attempt to portray him as a 'family man' and that sort of shite really does piss me off. I don't think Rovers are any better or any worse than any other club at this sort of bollocks. Jevani Brown has been punished by the courts and not one of us will ever really know the circumstances behind what happened that night, but he isn't the first and he certainly won't be the last to be involved in something like this. Third time you’ve backed him. Just as bad as the rest of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main difference for me is that I don’t remember any City fans making excuses for Simpson the way lots of slags are making excuses for Brown on Gaschat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made several posts on this subject and one of them mentioned the meaningless statements clubs and companies put out when something like this happens, just so they can be seen to be doing the right thing, it's utter bollocks. Of course I wouldn't defend Jevani Brown doing what he did, who on earth in their right mind would? But I don't buy into all this shite about how this should effect how I support my team. The hypocrisy stinks when it comes to things like this. When Barton was first employed at Rovers a bloke I know(City fan fwiw) was saying it was disgusting we had employed him and how I should be ashamed to be a Rovers fan. Ten minutes later he was chatting and laughing about how he made a teenage Liverpool fan cry when they got him cornered around Ashton at the cup game- and I'm the one who should be embarrassed? nah, I know I'm a half decent bloke, I've done things wrong like we all have, but who Rovers employ isn't a reflection on me just as some bully isn't a reflection on most City fans. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you still support a club that’s morally bankrupt & have been for some time. If city had Barton as manager I’d withdraw my support for as long as he was there.

Obviously I don’t condone violence of any sort . However , a fight in a pub between men is completely different to violence against women . Both Barton & this new signing are repeat offenders . How many chances do you give people . If you listen to under the cosh podcast , Orr goes into the incident & it was one of the worst days of his life . We actually did get rid of the main instigator which you conveniently failed to mention . 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is/was Jevanis Brown rehabilitation, is he fully rehabilitated in a few months? How has his attitude changed? Does he still drink alcohol and how does it affect him? Is he on any courses for this rehabilitation - he may have met Barton on one... I have read he received counselling for alcohol issues since 2021, then this happens in 2023 - so please explain how he is now some sort of rehabilitated role model. Did Brooker or Orr get signed when they had been sacked by their previous club, had just pleaded guilty to assaulting a woman, and had another assault charge hanging over them as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you possibly believe fighting with nightclub bouncers is in any way comparable with hitting a woman? For clarity if we had signed someone who had tried to cash a dodgy cheque in a pub no one would be too bothered about that either. The Simpson example is much more similar & I consistently posted at the time that we should not have signed him & even if he’d turned out better (the fact he didn’t is actually totally irrelevant here) I would still wish we hadn’t. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
