Today every now and then there are some accusations. I'm not saying things aren't happening, but there should be big punishments for false accusations. I don't see the reason why should we ban Partey if he is not proven guilty
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you work in an office? If you were accused of something this serious you'd be suspended with full pay until there was an outcome. You'd not be allowed to go into work.

Why do you think this should be any different? Being suspended doesn't make you guilty of anything either. It's just nornal standard practice for serious allegations.

Arsenal have put first team goals over this case which is utter baffling and a major own goal PR wise.

Would you not open yourself to some sort of legal recourse if you did that though?

Innocent until proven guilty is a concept for the justice system, not ordinary people. If we lived life to that principle the world would be mayhem.

AFAICT around 0.5% of men accused of rape get convicted. There needs to be some recognition of the context here. Though of course you're glad he's playing for you, he's a good football player. Who cares if he rapes women right? As long as it's not proven beyond reasonable doubt in court.

Completely unrelated, but the judicial system in Canada seems to be an absolute joke from what I can tell.

I'm all for rehabilitation or whatever, but there's none of that so just seems unless you do something really serious and you have no assets there's nothing to lose

He has been bailed until July 23
If guilty then he deserves all he gets

It’s a tricky one. I really would hate it in football terms if Partey were suspended for whatever reason. But some things are more important than football. Arsenal could take a serious hit to their reputation from this. We all love it when our players turn out to be decent guys, but there is a flip side. I never want to see Mendy in a City shirt again regardless of guilt or innocence, and I’ve yet to meet a United fan who wants Greenwood back.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you'd not want an innocent man to play for your team again because he was accused, sounds pretty stupid to me but each to their own. Partey as it stands is innocent so we'll gladly have him in the team until proved otherwise thank you...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It remains to be seen if he is innocent. He is certainly a sleazeball, and his ‘fixer’ even worse. I don’t want him back because I don’t want kids like my son looking at him and thinking that treating women like that is ok. I’m also certain that the club see it that way too.

Seems unlikely given what happened with Mendy. It's a civil thing with an employer, not sure how far you'd get trying to sue because of that. And if you'd really want the publicity? For what gain? The club could just tell the manager to not select him, have him train alone etc.

If you were accused of something this serious you'd be suspended with full pay until there was an outcome. You'd not be allowed to go into work.

Not true.

That's wildly dependent on the job you're doing tbf. A public figure like a politician would have to resign immediately.

Isn't there literally a current MP who was arrested for rape?
And another who was only sacked after being found guilty (Imran Khan?)

Fackin hell fair play I didn't realise how disgusting politics had got over there. Fair enough. SHOULD have to resign immediately

Pretty ridiculous to suggest your son would look at a footballer and automatically think "hey I'll treat women just like my favourite footballer" rather than "I want to play football just like that". Which of those do you seriously think is more likely?

Are you also going to stop your son from watching or listening to violent content? 🤔
