John Flanagan 16:56 - Jan 17 with 1755 views | westwalesed | http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-42715074 As someone who works with many, many victims of domestic abuse who go on to develop Mental Health issues as a result, this is an absolute disgrace. 40 Hours unpaid work for slamming a young woman against the wall and kicking her on the floor. Makes my blood boil. | |

it depends on whether that is classed as 'Serious violence" or not, as to whether he'd get a custodial sentence. I would if it had happened to me. But I am guessing the injuries are also taken into account, as well as the victim's statement. Is she still his girlfriend? I assume she is, so that's why he is a lucky boy. https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/web_domestic_violence.pd | |

More than 40 hours community service that's for sure..... first offence or not. | |

Fine of six months wages and a good public kicking by the local Women’s Institute. | |

John Flanagan on 18:37 - Jan 17 with 1439 views | Daggyjack | Working in Mental Health myself, these types of lowlife should be made an example of. 40 hours unpaid work is a joke. It was the same with Lee Hughes and the ex Plymouth keeper McCormick. They killed someone yet as soon as they were available, they were snapped up by desperate clubs with no morals. No doubt Flanagan will continue on his merry way as the big "I am" lauding it up like so many of the overpaid footballers of today. Worth too much to LFC for them to do anything about. | | | |

I think they'll get shot of him asap. But you are right, I don't see them sacking him, which would morally the right thing to do. Domestic abuse has no place in this world. Be Interested to know what your views are on the Ben Stokes situation. | |

Re Ben Stokes, I think that if found guilty, he should be banned from playing for England for a specific amount of time but he may well get away with that given his importance to the side. He will also probably be offered a place in the IPL for 2018, I think he went for £1.7 million in the 2017 bidding. Again, if guilty, he should be banned from playing and making that amount of money but I'm sure he will play. | | | |
