Sam Kerr

I don't have any "identity politics"; I liked Kerr because she was a good player. Beyond that I'm not really surprised at anything she might do. This would have to go down as one of the most ridiculous trials in legal history- five days for name calling and hurt feelings. Most of the people hating her on social media seem to be soccer haters, womens sport haters and gay haters, using the other issues as an excuse to post.
What her future as a player will be has still to be determined
i dont hate football, nor do i care if she wants to be the man in her relationship, i just hate double standards.

Luckily i dont care, nor do i attend Women's football, cause i'd booo her every touch. Privileged C.

Good thing you don't care. Imagine how fired up you'd be if you did.

I agree with this and said as much earlier in the thread.

People who, like you said, hate the attention the matildas have gotten, hate women, hate talk of equality, hate soccer, hate gays have used this as a vehicle to put the boot fair into her and by extension all of the above.

And then there are blokes like me, and others here, that don't hate any of that but think the trial was ridiculous and she acted like a shit.

Showing her bank balance on her phone to the cop was the nadir of the whole thing. She has come out of this looking cod ordinary.

I doubt she'll captain again.

She won't lose the Captain because in her and her teams eyes she did nothing wrong they will all be laughing at this
 
Pretty much this.

British Cop Found Guilty Of Being A Soft Cock

 
MCG - those with some IQ will STFU, pretty normal behaviour.
Avoid rocking the boat and flak thrown back at them.
 
she wont lose the captaincy, if they stripped her off that it will be a sign of guilt.

The judge said she was NOT Guilty, and that's how it will remain.

This is pretty much how I see it.
 
Apologies if this has already been covered in this thread, I don't really care all that much about so I haven't been reading it. However, my missus asked me about it (she has zero interest in football), she asked why was there a trial by jury for this? It seems like such a minor crime, why does it need a jury? Is this how the law is in the UK, or is this special circumstances because of who Kerr is? Again, sorry if this has already been answered.
 
I have many a time in my 20s, and Im sure a pretty big chunk of people on here have too....

Once got into the back seat of a cop car (was totally blotto and saw the checkered pattern on the side strip of the patrol car and thought ... ah taxi) and told the jack up front to take me home farken and to hurry because im gonna chuck up everywhere.... he told me to get farked, I told him to get farked, he had to get out of the drivers side and come and open the back door for for me because I had locked myself in and then we both went our separate ways....

Kerr is a privileged, angry little moron nothing more nothing less.... She'll (or more likely Chelsea) get stung with a hefty court costs and mark against her reputation.... stupid actions, not criminal.... lets all move on....
this says more about the kind of person you are than it does validate her behaviour

My wife the same, doesn't follow sport much & has no idea why this has gone to court.
 
same would apply to over half the population like most things reported by the press.
This was a beat up but shouldn't have got to this but hey, the UK authorities saw it differently.
My wife also wouldn't give a toss but for us watching NT games - she abuse's me though calls me many things but I don't report her to the cops haha

My missus is a healthcare worker, and has a natural caring and compassionate personality. Her exact response when I filled her in on the details was to roll her eyes and say 'someone needs to tell those cops to harden up princess'. She said if she reported every mongrel that calls her a slur she'd be in court every other week. She also made the comment that nobody should really be surprised when a star athlete behaves like a brat, they've been like that for aeons.

yes mate agree and kudos to your wife being a healthcare worker, a challenging underpaid job.
Correct its all OTT but this is todays world - can't say this can't say that, even here I control myself for X takes it all the wrong way but I also don't wish to offend at the sametime.
I employ 16 people, they can say anything to me it seems but IF I do ? unfair dismissal here we go and thats stacked against the employer.
