Stewart Downing - West Hahahaham player

[peekay]

In either event it is poor decision on his part regardless of circumstances.

He should have known better.

No excuses if he did hit/slapped her.

Considering the situation the club is under , this is the last thing we need. He definitely should have known better.

His critics say that he's a spineless bottler but hitting a woman clearly disproves that.

Of course. But it might have been a slight push and she might have made a meal of it but the Daily Mail will have been all over it anyway.

After the Steven Gerrard incident, the club should have warned and enforced strict rules on players. They should have warned the players against getting involved in stuff like these.

I dont think Downing is a wife beater or anything. But he knew, the club knew, how these things normally pan out. he should have had the sense to avoid getting into such situations.

I think it proves he is a spineless bottler, hitting a woman ffs

I don't think it proves anything as it is just an accusation at the moment.

We don't know if it's true or what exactly happened . It's the Daily Mail ffs and seeing that it involves a Liverpool player once again, they would have smelled blood. Let's wait and see.

He's not been convicted but this quote doesn't make it sound like just handbags

Referring to last night's incident, a police spokesman said: 'Police were called to an incident at a pub on Yarm High Street.

'A 27-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of assault and a 32-year-old woman has also been arrested on suspicion of assault.

[RichC]

It is the Daily Fail so the facts are of dubious quality but it does seem like he's in the nick.

Most likely she was beating him anyway

[Mostar]

He should have exercised the better judgement even if he was provoked.

At this point is only an accusation but he should have found the way to get himself out in that type of situation by simply walking away.

[McDermotX]

He finally delivered a decent right cross.
