The shit that does merit its own thread

He might actually realise that he’s been busted and now has a real problem.

“Consensual” is the new black.

I don’t really see how e.g. in the case of Rubiales the claim can be made that it was consensual if she basically says otherwise. It’s for her, not him to decide that.

I agree. Just watching Dispatches, he’s toast.

Yep watched that last night and agree.

It’s been an open ‘secret’ for years what he was like, backed up by his aggressive lawyers, so Times and C4 had to do their homework very carefully. Will be interesting to see how many others now come forward.

He’s also known this is coming. Couldn’t get work on TV or radio so retreated into a pathetic conspiracy channel on YouTube and trying to dress himself up as a wellness guru.

Reap the whirlwind.

I had no idea he existed until he got a (?Sunday) morning slot on 6Music twenty years ago - back then he was the funniest DJ I’d ever heard on radio, bar none.

Everything he did with his ‘career’ after that was a wrong move, and it seems his personal behaviour went even more badly wrong. Cocaine, egomania, and toxic narcissism are a killer combo… Amazing he didn’t shift to tory politics TBH.

It’s just such a shame she put her hands on his waist when he kissed her though. It just lends a tiny bit if credence to his argument that it was consensual.

No it doesn’t. Get a grip FFS.

Fuck you :roll_eyes:. All I’m saying is if she hadn’t done that, the twat wouldn’t have been able to drag it out for so long.

No, it’s sexist Spanish cunts fault, she just gave them a tiny bit of ammo to fire back.

It’s all been a well timed event for the head of FIFA who seems to have gotten away with his sexist rant.

They spend all that time training them to keep their hands by their sides when the ball’s nearby. Maybe now they’ll fit in a couple of sessions on what to do with their hands when they’re being molested :roll_eyes:. Reminding them that kneeing the ball(s) is still within the rules might not come amiss either.

Chortle.

And TBF it’s going to take a LOT of that to crowbar FIFA into doing the right thing…

They should have put a couple of Apple tags in it.

Recognise most of them, but who’s the blonde on the left?

Also is that the sweaty sock from Coast, didn’t realise he was a nutjob like the rest.

Think it’s Alison Pearson.

What a state this country has got into that people take sides over stuff like this.Pretty sure they would be somewhat slower out the traps if the allegations were against sadiq khan
