saw the news at tea time, looks bad MikeA. but i will wait to see what transpires with the trial.

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

I'm hoping that by pleading guilty now, they may just end up with a slap on the wrist, however, depends on the judge. But I wouldn;t expect the punishment to be too severe.

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

i think so also, though 6 months fer dunsavin wouldn't upset me.:D;)

One law for the rich?

Stevie G found not guilty. Best of luck to him, but funny that all the little men held their hands up and took the rap (for him?) - wonder if that had any bearing on the verdict? Or maybe he could just afford a better lawyer?

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

The Daily Telegraph online carried a full, verbatim account of the judge's address to Gerrard after the Not Guilty verdict.

It explained everything that we didn't know.

This summary now appears to have been withdrawn by the DT, and the only reason which I can imagine for this is that the half-dozen who pleaded guilty (or some of them) are now trying to change their plea.

The thick plottens.

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

There cant be one law for gerrard and another for the rest. Gerrard from what has been publicised seemed the main aggressor (handbags at ten paces!) and walks scott free yet the lads including dunbavin and grant plead guiity to affray recieve a punishment. Unless theyve been slipped a few quid £££££. Totally blown out of propotion because of Gerrard as everybody well knows.

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

i say if that trial had been held anywhere else, with that cctv evidence i am damn sure the verdict would be different.:rolleyes:

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

gerrards lawyer earned a quarter of a million for the case.

According to today's Guardian, the six non-celebrities will be sentenced at a later date:

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

I reckon it would have been fairer on all concerned to hold this trial away from Liverpool. This case smacks of 12 good and true folks in the red shirt of Liverpool. So what of the other 6, even though they have pleaded guilty to affray etc, why should they not now change their plea. I would if I was in their shoes. To punch somebody 3 times (Gerrards own words) is NOT self defence it is downright thuggery and I think every right minded person on this island will also think the same. His image HAS been tarnished whatever that jury and the judge has said. It stinks.

Re: What Will Happen Now??????
 

thing is he stated he did not "SEE" his mate elbow the guy in the face, the cctv evidence says otherwise.:rolleyes:
