I was very disappointed with the paltry sentence handed down to that serial sex attacker Marlon King yesterday, The Wigan striker received 18 months, under current rules a third of that gets taken of automatically ( someone please explain to me why that happens) he will also be eligible for parole after serving half of the remainder, so he should be released sometime in April just in time for the end of the season which will give his agent plenty of time to find him a club for the new season.
And find a new club he will, there will be a chairman out there who will take him on though this animal should be hounded out of the game, and certainly not be allowed to ply his trade as a professional footballer with all the prestige and glamour not to mention the rich’s that comes with it.
In Kings case this was not a an isolated incident he has form going back 13 years, from violent assault on young women to theft and deception. the reason I feel so strongly about this is I have a young daughter who goes out to clubs and am horrified to think that dinosaurs like King are out there, this old fashioned mentality that makes women sex objects and believes that if they are out clubbing they “are up for it”.
As sentence was handed down Kings family shouted “Institutional racism” at the court and pointed to the fact that Stevan Gerrard walked free from an affray charge recently, as if to say he got of because he was white, there are black people out there that play the race card at every opportunity and sometimes with cause, but not this time the colour of his skin is not important he is in jail this morning because he is an animal.
Congratulations to Dave Whelan the Wigan chairman for immediately sacking King and making it clear he believes he has no place in football. I understand that he is appealing against the severity of his sentence and feels hard done by, it would be just like our system to reduce it so that he barely serves any jail time at all and in a couple of months this is forgotten and he goes back to his arrogant lifestyle, this must not be allowed to happen.
