So he admitted the assault on his former Man City team mate because the judge hinted that if he did so, he'd only get a suspended sentence. This man is a disgrace, a thug and a bully. He's going to be out on license soon enough and once more he'll be free to walk the streets and play football. In other sports a commissioner will invoke a 'for the good of the game' clause and ban someone from playing. I'd love to see that happen in the Premiership and this is the perfect time to do such a thing. |

They say in The Sun that they are going to sack him. Apparently as part of the deal that saw him sign from Man City, they could sack him if he was convicted of the assault of Dabo. As he's changed his plea to guilty that gives them the old they were looking for. Good Riddance - the sad thing is someone will give him another shot on a free transfer. |

What right do we have to stop him earning a living? |

Every right Frankie - do we want this guy being a role model for youngsters? Showing them that even if they beat up umpteen people that if they have a natural talent they'll be given a zillion chances. |

I agree, people with criminal records struggle to get good jobs. They have to start at the bottom again and gain peoples trust. They aren't given £10'000 a week and the chance to be on tv playing a sport. A high percentage of young people in this country can and will only dream of. |
