    Question is, was it money well spent?

    Peter Beagrie for one. This Mason kid was 21 and stuck his hand up a womans top. Daft, foolish behaviour but hardly a rapist.

    Mason sounds a good player, He made a silly mistake in a nightclub, No one died and he has learnt his lesson, City would be a good place to move on to and rebuild his career

    You might think differently if it was your daughter he'd done it to.

    7 years on the sex offenders register. Don't need players like him at our club

    Changed my mind on this one.

    It isn’t ideal.....then again we adored Jamie Lawrence and we was done for armed robbery. Wasn’t the only wild child in that 99/00 team either from what I gather.

    If he’s served his punishment I guess we have to hope he’s a reformed character and judge him on what he does hereon in, on the pitch.....that’s if he does indeed arrive.

    If im brutally honest, id say his punishment was enough. It was dealt with and folk should move on with their lives.

    Its called a common sense approach.

    There are boundaries - Nonce, murderer, rapist but he is neither.

    Edit: we have to remember we are dealing with the cancel culture kids nowadays. Outraged and offended by almost anything with no forgiveness unless it fits their narrative.

    Most wont know who Jamie Lawrence is.

    Basically a kid, silly thing to do and not nice for the girl, but does it warrant going on the sex offenders list and in the same bracket as rapists and Catholic priests ?

    If it was my daughter I'd hope she punched his lights out and moved on. I'm not condoning it at all, but modern society has a way of blowing things out of proportion. Show me a child of the 70's who didn't squeeze someones bum in a nightclub ?

    Ok, things have changed, but if we concentrated more on actually banging away more real criminals and dangers to society, than punishing easy targets who made a massive mistake when drunk, then the world would be a better place,

    A drunk, misplaced fumble doesn't make him a rapist, doesn't make him likely to be one, and doesn't mean he's a danger to Society. I'm not belittling the girl at all but there are two sides to every story, like the side that says the girl who Tyrell Robinson slept with looked 18 and told him she was 18.

    It might not make him a rapist but women have a right to go out without getting moletested by some arsehole who thinks he's got a right to do as he pleases.
