It tells me a lot of them that they'd do it in the first place. Innocence before guilt is irrelevant; chanting 'One Adam Johnson' the first game after he was arrested was very seedy. Everyone knows why they did it.
Adam Johnson: Sunderland winger can continue to play for club Adam Johnson can continue to play for Sunderland after he was charged with three offences of sexual activity with a 15-year-old girl on Thursday. The 27-year-old has played three times for the club since his 2 March arrest. "The club recognises that the formal legal process must take its course and whilst our position remains unchanged, we will keep the matter under review," read a Sunderland statement. "The club will not be making any further comment." Midfielder Johnson, who has 12 England caps, was also charged with one offence of grooming and will appear before Peterlee Magistrates' Court on 20 May. He was suspended by the Premier League club after his arrest pending the outcome of the investigation, but this was lifted on 18 March. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32446760 Piss-poor judgement if you ask me.
I guess we're seeing what price the club places on premier league survival. You can't believe they would even consider any action other than suspension.
Seems they should have kept their gobs shut... Sunderland's Adam Johnson pleads guilty to one count of sexual activity with a child and one of grooming.
He could always claim it was a sexual emergency. http://metro.co.uk/2016/02/06/man-w...med-he-was-having-a-sexual-emergency-5665443/
Sunderland v Manchester United on Saturday. The banter from the Red Devil fans should be interesting. Game is Live on BT sport for those not going to Blackburn Rovers. ko 12.45
If Big Sam has any sense he will tell Adam Johnson to stay away. The fact that AJ has now admitted 2 offences should be more than enough cause to do that regardless of the outcome of the other 2 charges. I wonder if the Prison system transfer window is still open ?
