    I'm suggesting somebody recruited him and it's been implied on several occasions that the club does a huge amount of due diligence and interviewing on character and personality traits.

    No it wasn't. The club has confirmed this under Edin's watch.

    Definitely. I can't believe somebody can't tell a potential criminal just by looking at them and having a conversation.

    I'm stunned the police didn't actually arrest him before it allegedly happened. Surely they could have easily seen it coming.

    In response to being asked for a response.....apparently there are others who feel the same way so I will leave it to those better able to express their opinions.

    It's a wonder that there are all these criminals out there with employment histories. How did any of them ever get a job when their employers knew full well that they were going to go on to commit crimes?

    The OP should insert "alleged" into the sexual assault part as it reads as though it's a fact before anything has been proved.

    As much as I hold edin to blame for the mess we are in, to lay blame at his door for Robinsons alleged actions is ridiculous.

    However, the more pressing issue is that for 350k a year, we have developed only one half decent player from the development squad in over 2 years.

    Everyone is happy with everything that's going on .....

    ....... apart from :

    1 We don't hnow what's happening with either Riley or Mellor at right back

    2. We aren't convinced that Chicksen should be left back

    3. Kilgallon and NKP - what's going on?

    4. Centre midfield - Akpan and Wright ??

    5. Wrong (ever changing) formations

    6. Loan striker - not working

    7. Owner who is being ridiculed

    8. Manager - same as 7 above

    9. Captain - nuff said

    10. Attendances falling

    11. Talk of protests

    And the season is only 3 weeks old

    I have watched City since 1980, travelling around 90 miles per home game. Have I had enough of this utter rubbish - very nearly?

    The sad part is that I can see a game by game decline, which is far from bottoming out. And I truly believe it will get considerably worse, not better.

    Bronco, Much appreciated. But you are assuming I have even half a brain :)

    One day we shall meet, put our arms around each other shoulders, share a drink and understand we are, ultimately, on the same side.

    First time I've ever heard of one being compared to a cannon, any male would be happy with that.

    Although, I have my suspicions that it probably wasn't loose.
