Popular Post Colin Traive 23,838 Posted October 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2021 1 minute ago, Paisley Blue Loyal said: Whilst I agree with every word of that sadly I take nothing for granted given what a fucked up little backwater of a country we currently live in . You are so right. The very fact that we’re even discussing the possibility of the “separate entity” garbage being accepted as an excuse is unbelievable. Personally, I’d increase any penalty imposed to reflect an attempt to pervert (how apt) the course of justice. Ironically, it is one of their standard defensive claims (“Stein threw Torbett out when he found out”) which may work against them. If the boys club was truly independent, then Stein would have had no authority to dismiss one of their staff. That’s the smoking gun, right there. dougie76, Negri's lovechild, Bears r us and 5 others 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the SFA have to be involved. A member club settling countless child abuse cases out of court, even on a “no liability” basis, taints the game in this country permanently. Clubs getting grief over the absence of a sponsor logo is one thing but NDAs over industrial scale child abuse is on a different planet. ronniescu and kelvd1873 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that a compliant media and "their" ability to deny reality at all cost. We'll hear very little about this is my guess.

In order for cases to settle, both sides must agree.

Paisley Blue Loyal 11,794 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Not really anything to do with The Scum but CSA is a massive story today with revelations coming out about The Catholic Church in France going back to 1950 I believe, Numbers in the hundreds of thousands sadly, If this story does gain traction then things may well get extremely Uncomfortable for Scum FC with a bit of luck.

If there is a compensation award it will be a single value. It will.then be split to the I individuals behind the class action. That split may be even or there may be some other formulas to allocate damages on some other basis. plymouthranger and Ivybank 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
