Youth Team & Central League Thread 2024/25

He broke a 57yr old woman's leg while she was sat at a bus stop with her girlfriend, stood over her shouting "Do you not know who I am?" and threatening to find out where she lived. He then tried to get the sentence lessened claiming he'd had 11 pints of shandy and complaining he'd received an injured lip from being punched for breaking a 57yr old woman's leg...

He shouldn’t be employed by North End after that……

And before people say Ched Evans, he was found not guilty of rape during the retrial.
 
And what the fuck is this supposed to mean and imply?

That comment is bizarre, weird and completely unnecessary.

Correcting someone about how a woman was beaten is probably one of the oddest things I’ve seen on a social media platform.

You’ve always been pedantic and attempted to correct people on how their figures are out by £0.1 million but to correct someone on how a woman got kicked by a bloke rather than punched by a bloke is just odd.
 
Not surprised given his love of hitting women - I'm sure the club are glad he's finally on his way.

"... if we think there’s a certain part of his personality that doesn’t fit with this football club, because it’s proud Preston, because it’s Sir Tom’s club, we won’t take them. This might be to the detriment of the short-term success, but we have spent a long time becoming who we are and I certainly don’t want to destroy that..."

The thing for me, is that we chose to hire him after that.

I can accept the club supporting an existing, contracted employee through things with a duty of care through everything that's gone on (no matter how unsavoury) to reach the best outcome for all, but the Welsh choice baffles me. Working with kids and influencing youngsters like Cross-Adair with that on his DBS disclosure? Odd.

Not pedantic.

As I posted a couple of months ago, my OCD regards exact prices goes through the roof. Same with ages. Must be a numerical thing with me.

Apologies for swearing at you but domestic violence isn't something I take lightly having been on the receiving end. I said both were bad instances.

Maybe I expressed my thoughts poorly. FCA was multiple times, Welsh was once? That's my angle. And for the record, I forgave 24 hours later after the 1st DV against myself. Happened twice.
 
Yes, I am ok.

Just pointing out.

I said both are bad.

One was a punch, the other was a kick. One was continuous over time, one was "drunk 🙄" in a bus shelter. Both disgusting.

BTW, I have been on the receiving end of domestic violence. More than once (same ex). Required dental work at one stage.

Go fuck yourself you condescending twat.

For perspective FCA also kicked his victim in the face after he’d dragged her to the floor having flown out to find her whilst she was on holiday with friends.

Hence why he couldn't do pre-season in Benidorm, as he'd have been arrested.

Didn't know the bit about flying out to find her, that's incredibly controlling and basically stalking. I hope any future partners know about this part. I know for a fact I wouldn't want my daughter with anyone who had done that.

Not quite true son - he was on holiday with Josh seary in Ibiza with their partners … having seen the video fca kicks up as he’s led on a bed causing a bruised lip to M … I believe he’s moving into a house with the same girl in question . Dont want hammering for this it’s just the real version.

Didn’t Ched get off with his conviction because the case collapsed, during the retrial, through lack of evidence? Not because he was found not guilty?

Domestic abuse and any violence towards women is unacceptable on any level, and it is a very emotive subject. In the case of FCA he’s been found guilty and has now paid his debt to society, that the courts bestowed upon him. More importantly, the young Lady involved has forgiven the harm he inflicted upon her and if the rumours are true, found a way to continue their relationship.

His actions may have probably curtailed his career with PNE and we are all entitled to our own opinion of FCA, but unfortunately he isn’t the first and sadly won’t be the last to commit such an act. What we can all agree on his, we hope he has learnt from his mistakes and never commits such an act again.

Good luck Fin.
 
There was a lot of people who were annoyed at the time when Mikey was allowed to leave. Was quite a lot of uproar if I remember rightly. Especially when it was to a team in the Prem and then scored some goals for their younger side.

But I really didn't see anything in him that made me think he'd ever make it at this level.

I guess you'd need to know why he is currently at WTFC rather than the league clubs that wanted him.... suspect you don't ?
 
He has signed for Fleetwood but can’t officially move until 1st Jan
He’s gone to Warrington for a month to get fitness for when he is eligible to play for Fleetwood
Suspect it will be announced officially on 1st Jan and that tweet is a bit of a mistake !

Thought he'd gone to WTFC because their main striker, Josh Amis, as suspended for 3 games?????

Believe he is getting online abuse from WTFC fans and dogs abuse from Curzon fans when he came on as sub....not going to be easy to rebuild a career....
 
When my lad was 11/12 years old he used to play for the schools town team…

One Saturday they were playing at Sefton and after the game a scout came and asked me if my lad would come for a trial at Mellwood…

My lad went but it was all a bit of a clique and he didn’t feel comfortable playing with a load of strangers who weren’t very welcoming…

Quite daunting for a young lad, so he never went again.

I feel sorry for your lad, Ando. Growing up in the shadow of a Deepdale legend, the pressure on him must have been enormous.

@Ando60 missed a trick at Melwood all those years ago. If ever there was a time for, 'do you know who I am?' that was it. Them Scouse scouts would have been falling over themselves to sign his lad and make him feel wanted.

no hes definitely signed for Fleetwood, not sure if its been announced officially by either club yet ? Gone to WTFC for a month just to get some fitness before he can play for Fleetwood, probably ties in well with their striker being suspended. Probably depend on how well he does at Fleetwood as to how easily he can re-build his career, a few decent performances and people will start to get off his back. Theres players whove had a good careers who have done similar or worse at a young age and it gets forgotten about over time.
