Why would it be?

It seems important to not have a culture of silence around accusations of sexual violence, particularly against prominent people within society. The culture of silence around sexual abuse in football has been responsible for condoning such behaviour or giving people a free pass for it. The football media is the main instrument through which the cycle can be broken, and the TV media in particular has the biggest audience. So it seems pretty relevant to be discussed, if not by the commentators of the match, by the post-game shows on the various networks.

Because of an accusation?

No, that'll never be discussed on a broadcast.

Gutless campaigner if even half of if it is true he should be locked up

Poor woman now getting attacked by our so called supporters makes me sick

Worst part is those idiots who keep saying 'innocent until proven guilty' (on social media)

Evidence is pretty much clear cut.

Absolute P.O.S and if someone at Leeds was found to have behaved in the same way, no matter who it is, no second chances, they should be booted from the club as soon as possible.
