[Vermilion]

I bet his wife could tell a few tales eh, if she wasn't, which i expect she is, dominated by him and afraid of him.

utter ****.

[Chrono]

As he was led away, one of his moronic relatives shouted from the gallery:

"This is institutionalised racism! Gerrard walks the streets. Look at you all, you're all white! Heil Hitler!"

What a ****ing moron. Disgraceful to say such a thing when it seems quite clear he violently assaulted a young woman

[anfieldanfield]

What a lovely man.

[Leyton388]

Hope he gets to know what it feels like to be on the wrong end of a sexual assault in the next 18 months!Let him know how he must have felt.

Birmingham City star Marlon King arrested after crash

A Birmingham City footballer has been arrested after a man was left with serious injuries in a three-car crash.

Striker Marlon King, 33, was released on police bail pending further inquiries into the crash near Newark, Nottinghamshire.

A Porsche, a Volkswagen Polo and a Vauxhall Astra were involved in the incident on Friday afternoon on the A46/A17 interchange.

The seriously hurt man was airlifted to Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre.

Other occupants in the cars also suffered from whiplash injuries.

King, whose previous clubs include Watford, Middlesbrough and Coventry City, underwent knee surgery last month.

A spokesman for Birmingham City said: "We are aware of a road traffic accident involving our player and the matter is now being investigated by the police."

Just nipped in to post the same.

Bloke can't seem to stay out of trouble.

[Pablo]

He's a scumbag

[Shaggy]

What the **** is wrong with him???

[Fredo]

He's probably got issues, I mean, medical issues. Poor fella.

[Neil Young]

Hmm, maybe.

But with his record I'm not tempted to give him the benefit of the doubt.

King has convictions for 14 offences, dating from 1997.[54][55] He received fines, driving bans, community service sentences, a rehabilitation order and orders to pay compensation on convictions including: theft from a person and from a car, criminal damage, and attempting to obtain property by deception; fraudulent use of vehicle licence document, driving without insurance, speeding, drink driving; a wounding incident while playing amateur football, and two cases involving assault of young women rejecting his advances in the Soho area of London.
Two cases led to imprisonment. In May 2002 he received an eighteen-month prison sentence for receiving stolen goods, in relation to a BMW convertible that he was found driving. He was found not guilty of a charge of assaulting a police officer in a related case. His solicitor commented that "His reputation will be tarnished forever, whatever success he achieves, he'll always be referred to in a Tyson-esque way as someone who has had a criminal past and that is a considerable penalty."[56][57] Gillingham continued to pay his salary while he was in jail, and supported in his appeal, which resulted in the sentence being reduced to nine months, and he was released on licence after five months, returning to the Gillingham team within two days of his release.[58]
In December 2008, again in the Soho area, King was arrested on suspicion of punching a 20 year-old female university student in the face, causing a broken nose and split lip for which she was treated in hospital. He was later convicted of sexual assault and assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and sentenced to 18 months in prison and placed on the Sex Offender Register for seven years.[2] Wigan Athletic immediately initiated the cancellation of his contract.[19] King’s agent, Tony Finnigan, said he was confident that his client would find a club on his release, which was on 29 July 2010,[59] and accused the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) of failing to offer support. Gordon Taylor, the chief executive of the PFA, said that the PFA did not represent players when they have broken the law and been convicted on non-footballing matters. It would support members with anger management or other issues if approached but no approach had been made by King.[16] After his release, he made an appeal against the conviction which was unsuccessful.[60]
King was arrested and bailed in April 2013 after a car crash which left one man seriously injured.[61] On 30 July 2013, he was arrested in connection to a hit-and-run incident which had left a man injured.

He's not a kid any more. Whatever the cause, he's a danger to others.
