I see Kiko has been nominated as Fans championship player of the month. Well deserved for his performances and clean sheets but dodgy timing with racist abuse charge Just read Phil Hay on Forestieri case, like John Terry, he was acquitted in court but found guilty by FA due to the burden of proof being different ( beyond reasonable doubt as versus balance of probabilities) With Forestieri the victim reacted at the time and there was a huge brawl, with kiko first anyone knew was in post match interview and a cryptic question and answer, Lee Bowyer said at time he knew nothing Big worry for kiko is that after all investigations the same body who will hear the case (? different people?) found case to answer I hope the club are preparing for the worse behind the scenes IF guilty and in no way am I pre-judging it, he will get a minimum 6 game ban but the question will be should the club stick by him or sack him. In the past I was of the old Wilko school " I would pick Genghis Khan if he stopped us conceding at corners" and I had this view re Bowyer/ Woodgate and indeed Lee Hughes etc , albeit I sang 'murderer's at him, I would have had no problem us buying him if good enough. My views have changed a bit now and, IF guilty I would support the club sacking him. Bielsa and his morals may came into it , would he have to go against his own principles about society being more important than football or will he go along the cop out, a racist nsult during an argument does mean someone is actually a racist ? Which to be honest is true. Whatever it is typical Leeds and our uncanny ability to self destruct Dave _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected]
