We'll never really know what happened that night and for most of its the truth we really want. However those who consider him a 100% guilty will need to except he'll become a 100% innocent and the victim of a terrible miscarriage of justices if this goes his way

This case has always bothered me, I know what my opinion is but lets see what the Court of Appeal denotes.

Be interesting to see what clubs and others reactions are if the conviction does get overturned.

Nothing to say it will be, but to get referred back is a big step.

As it stands he is a convicted rapist having been found guilty.
There can be no ifs and buts.
If he is found to have been the victim of a miscarriage of justice and is completely exonerated, then he should be considered innocent and treated accordingly.
No ifs , no buts.

Is it that simple? What if he is cleared of actual rape, but clearly acted with quite some degree of impropriety, or amoral behaviour?

How would you feel about him as a person / footballer?
( that is a question, not a point of view on my part).

Having a lack of morals, or not sharing the same moral compass as most of us, is not a crime and its not appropriate to pass judgement on lack of morals alone.

The deleting of facebook posts about 'winning big'. The one thing that bothers me most about this case is what a lot of people in Cardiff/Wales seem to have become. In the old days a convicted rapist would be treated as such, not as some sort of weird eyebrowed folk hero.

From the website you mention, the video of her running back outside in high heels for her pizza suggests she wasn't as drunk as she says. that is not true anymore. just recently there have been two cases where women have been found guilty of rape (one by association and the other or forced penetration using an object)

The other players' testimony saying she was telling each of them to do this, and to do that to me, and f me harder etcquite. it does seem odd. I think it is more to do with the fact its (i) high profile (ii) he is maintaining his innocence and (most importantly) (iii) we are all bar room experts on here

I understand how the older generation cannot get their head around a girl consenting to two men, but in my generation its pretty common. And its even more rampant with late teen/early 20 odd year olds these days. <b>Blame pornhub/redtube etc and how easily accessible these sites are.A little bit of extra naughty-ness was a bit more of a treat and a joy back in my younger days, not some guaranteed action and run-of-the-mill copy cat PornHub re-enactment.

The deleting of facebook posts about 'winning big'. The law has changed then? Association-isn't that the same as aiding and abetting? and I was under the impression that the law states that rape is constituted by penetration with the Penis-not a nice subject really-have you any links or evidence to show that both these woman were convicted of rape?

Then the fact she never actually claimed rape. She lost her phone, the players came forward and explained to the police what had happened that night, and the police decided that maybe she was raped. She says she cant remember which is understandable. Its better than admitting to being a dirty slag.There is an exact equivalent of rape called 'causing another person to engage in sexual activity without consent', which carries the same sentence as rape and was designed to catch women who force men to have sex with them. As Feedy said, there is also a separate offence of 'assault by penetration', which also has a life sentence. So while the word 'rape' is not applied to a women in those contexts (the judgement being that juries would find it too confusing and be more likely to aquit), the acts are treated equally.

Why should she be considered of loose morals? Putting the consent issue to one side, why would a woman who chooses to have sex with two guys on the same night have loose morals? If a guy did the same we wouldnt be questioning his judgement (whereas we would be bemoaning his luck).

That's a seriously mysoginistic viewpoint - as if women can't think and act as sexual beings in their own right.

You can claim for compensation. Depends on the circumstances.You can claim but the Tories made it almost impossible to win it unless someone else is convicted. This will be challenged by Strasbourg at some point but is the current situation.
