Just to reiterate this point, not only was "Remy" trending quite highly on twitter earlier, but "QPR" was as well. |  |

If that law applied Stuart Hall would still be on Radio 5. Most of the evidence against him was gathered after he was named as numerous other victims realised that they might actually get listened to and came forward.
I see the point of anonymity in sex cases - though its worth remembering that it doesn't apply in any other crime - but its not as straightforward as some of you seem to think. |
Surely though a conviction does not , or at least should not depend on how many victims there are. If after a man has been proven guilty others come forward then surely you can put the offender back in the dock? |  | | |

qpr cannot stay out of the headlines....fergie retires,mancini sacked
so now it's a qpr player on gang rape charges.... 
long way until any court case...remy will be lucky to be bailed imo.
there are 4 players up on a rape case now, 2 or 3 from brighton. |  | | |

He'll definitely get bail if charged. From QPR perspective the difficulty is that they now have someone who they cannot sell until the trial is complete (assuming he is charged). This means Remy will be a QPR player on our books for quite a while yet. The big dilemma will be whether to play him whilst awaiting a trial. My guess is that if he's on form they will. |  |

Tis the football way - can you play football? Then it doesn't really matter what you've done. Biting, spitting, racism, shagging a team mate's girlfriend, punching a woman for refusing to sleep with you, getting drugged off your tits and smashing your car into an old fella then leaving him to die in the road - goals and towering centre half performances apparently cover a multitude of sins.

You're being rather naive.
You don't associate Suarez's actions with Liverpool then? Or Terry's with Chelsea? |
What I do is associate with Liverpool and Chelsea is how they dealt with the actions of their players. | | | |

Don't think I'd feel comfortable cheering the goals of a player facing a rape charge.
I know that he's innocent until proven guilty but it's a bit of a moral dilemma. |  | | |

Anybody that doesnt think this incident will bring association with the club is a fcking idiot.
And anybody that has been paying even a small amount of attention over the years will realise this is in a LONG LINE of incidents, some of them isolated, that are also associated with QPR. To guns in the boardroom to bust ups with olympic teams to Faurlin-gate to murdered players etc etc.
Nobody is saying QPR has any accountability to what the players do in their personal lives, but to say there will not be negative association is just naive. It is being reported on Sky Sports News, why? Because he plays for a football team. This could all be rubbish, and I hope it is. But when a picture of a player, in a QPR shirt is plastered across the news with 'Rape' headline, it brings about further negative press to the club and the wider game generally. |  |

I agree but I'm also a realist. If Remy is awaiting trial and turns out for us next season, no matter what our views are now if he scores then we are all going to be on our feet cheering. It may not be right, and it may not effect how we feel when we sit and ponder, but it is a fact. When the ball hits the back of the net, it doesn't matter who put it there or how it got there. If its an important goal, you celebrate 1st, your brain engages later. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

That anyone would imply that going somewhere that men are is an invitation for rape, is unbelievable. For gawd's sake. Is the implication that rape is somewhere in the back of every bloke's DNA or something? Is the implicaiton that whenever you get 2 or more men together women should live in fear? I can tell you that as a young 'un I was drunk lots of times with a bunch of blokes and never felt the need to be affraid of rape. I can also tell you that in y youth I have been drunk with blokes and women and none of the women had any reason to be affraid. Only a complete sicko commits rape, drunk or not. |  |

Yes. But I guarantee the women who didn't 'cry rape' (a pretty disgusting phrase as it is) but were raped, but were too afraid to come forward because of the hell they go through in court only to find that overwhelming majority of cases are lost, substantially outweigh those where the woman is genuinely lying. Of course, I'm really sorry for that guy whose life was ruined - don't get me wrong - that is tragic.
The comment from another poster about 'what did the woman expect' makes me sick to my stomach. Lazy, sexist, offensive bullsh!t. |
Thank goodness for some sense! Sickened,too, by Hayesenders comments.
There is a lot of talk here about people being found innocent. This is not how the law works. The prosecution have to prove guilt "beyond reasonable doubt". Although I grant that there may be some women who falsely accuse others of raping them, they are deterred from going to the police or court as successful prosecutions are rare in this country (perhaps as some of the jury think "what did she expect!!!!!!")
I know from a good friend who worked with BBC slime ball that was always bothering women (working on kids TV) and was well known for forcing himself upon them. He got off when it came to court, but his girlfriend who stood by him, buggered off as soon as the trial was over. Not sure Clive likes names being mentioned, so wont, but sure there are many who know who I mean. Glad the toe rag is now moaning his life has been ruined... doesnt even realise what he did to women |  | | |

Although not well put I believe Hayesender to have an objective point within his post.
This case and more so that of the Brighton players highlights the dangers of alcohol and casual relationships for both men and women. Nobody should ever be in fear of rape but it is sensible to avoid an intimate evening with people you hardly know. An old fashioned attitude this might be but I pray to God that it is one adopted by my kids. |  | | |

Forgive me if I have misunderstood but are you suggesting in rape cases the burden of proof for the prosecution should be less than in other cases.

cant see their being a case to answer unless its proven she was drugged otherwise its her word v 3 of them
easy for them to say one of them and her had sex then she agreed to the others joining in only to feel used dirty and ashamed the next day and complain
if however there was date rape drugs in her blood they could well be in massive trouble
as a side issue if you shag your otherhalf while shes alseepor drunk out of her mind is that rape ? i guess it could be the way things are these days

Of course it bloody is, sod all to do with "these days" either, if it ain't consensual then it's rape. Simple.

He shouldn't play for us until the investigation is over. If he's charged he should be suspended without pay. If he's found guilty he should be sacked immediately. If he's found innocent he should receive his back pay and the suspension should end.
Please, please, please let's not fall into the fcking Liverpool and Chelsea trap of standing by our man and hiding behind 'innocent until proven guilty' simply because he's a good footballer and a sellable asset. He should not play for us at all until this is sorted one way or another. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

To be fair to Chelsea and Liverpool their players weren't arrested for rape. |  | | |
