I think it’s come to light now, because he’s just been charged.  Probably nowt to do with when his contract at Arsenal expired.

It’s been common knowledge for a long time. Doesn’t reflect well on Arsenal to have continued playing him all that time.

5 charges of rape PLUS one charge of serial assault. Plus another accusation that can't be investigated here because it happened in Spain.

Arsenal knew and continued to play him.

If you are being investigated about a crime and in employment would your boss stop paying you ?

Remember Benjamin Mendy he was acquited of everything he was accused of while playing for man city who stopped his paying his wages and he took them to court over it so being accused and guilty are very different.

I'd be suspended, as would many.

It would surely depend on the individual’s Contract of Employment. Football clubs must be very conscious of their image and the conduct of their players figures largely in projecting it.

He was arested and charged on at least a couple of occasions but still continued playing

The police while doing an investigation have no obligation to tell your employer,I worked with someone around 10 years ago who went to prison for 4 years because of indecent pictures on his computer around 1500 in total and he worked in a restaurant where families came into and it was not until he was sent down that the police made contact, because they said he was innocent until found guilty and it took them around 2 years from start to finish the case against him

Was it a crime of this magnitude and were you working for one of the country’s biggest football clubs? If not I’m not sure how many parallels you can draw.

 When announcing he'd been charged The Met Police very helpfully chose a photo of a white man in handcuffs, why?

https://news.met.police.uk/news/thomas-partey-charged-with-rape-by-the-metropolitan-police-service-499140

This is he, one of the going down on one knee brigade at the time of the alleged rapes and sexual assault.
Obviously someone therefore of shining decency, let's all clap like sheep

To those who seem to need it explaining to them, do you find ‘laugh out loud’ to be an appropriate reaction to a topic where we’re discussing a man charged with 5 counts of rape?

Whether or not you have daughters of your own, when discussing rape lol has no place in any post.

If you don’t agree then you’re posting on the wrong topic.

On your original post there was no mention of LOL hence why people were asking what you were on about

You didn’t think to look back a couple of posts on this topic then given I’d specifically named two posters, one for posting the lol acronym & the other who gave it a like?

Not that difficult to join those dots ravenrover surely.

If you can't  distinguish between a comment discussing the original subject and a light hearted comment about a minor inexactitude in the OP then the attention given to what is written is clearly insufficient.
