Luke McCormick

I wouldn't want him here.

That could easily have been pook or nicho.

The Smith/Brez debate got me thinking when I saw this topic.

IF in 3 years time we needed a new goal keeper and IF McCormick was out on good behaviour and IF we did sign him...what would everyones re-action be?

Shouldn't even be debating this. The guy has through utter bloody stupidity killed two young boys and ruined the lives of many others. Would you really want him representing your club and singing his name!!!!!!!! He wont play football again unlike that scumbag Hughes who is a disgrace to the human race.

If he gave half his wages to charity or spent a fair amount of his time in charity work eg visiting schools / colleges warning of the dangers of drink driving then I wouldn't have a problem as it would look like he was genuinely sorry. Otherwise then no. As well as the 2 kids the bloke involved was also badly injured and nearly killed. And what about the wife?
It was an absolute tragedy.

As a driver ime afraid alot of what happens on the roads is fate.....i see people on drugs,and people on the mobile...a lorry driver i knew was texting and hit a stationary maintenance lorry at full speed....he died instantly bu my point is it could have been a people carrier he hit and wiped out a family
Ive said for years that if you can put a man on the moon there has to be a way that we can get something built into a vehicles computer that can stop the vehicle if its being driven erraticly.

My reaction would be for him to get fucked. I think it is somewhat disrespectful to the boys family to bring up signing him when he gets out of the nick.

Oh do fuck off, its a hypothetical question and the family arent likely to read it are they.

Must admit when i see Hughes doing that silly jig after scoring it makes me sick.

the likes of hughes and mccormick should never play professional football again, i think its a disgrace, i'd be dismayed if they ever represented my team.

if mccormick behaves himself and gets out early, he'll be serving just over 18 months per child he killed. that is fucking disgusting.

watched a news report showing CCTV of his car speeding along the motorway, and moments before he hits the toyota. they said his friend had phoned him earlier and begged him to pull over, 2 hours sleep after being on the piss all day is ridiculous, he knew the risks, and 7 1/2 years is hardly justice for utter, utter stupidity.

the fact is they when hes released he has served his time and is free to play football or do what ever he wants to do as he is a free man, what really needs addressing is how can they possibly jail him for only 3 years for killing 2 young boys?

There's probably loads of people that have done all manner of horrible things working in Britain, who you come into contact with day in and day out.

I think people kick up a fuss because it's high profile. Fact is, if you didn't let ex-criminals work, they'd be committing even more crimes.

[Leggett]

yes, but i doubt many of those people who have been in prison for killing people will earn as much as mccormick if he plays after his release. the way i see it, playing football is a priviledge. yes its a job, but its a well-paid one. at no point in my life am i gonna be paid large amounts of money for playing a game, these guys are, so they're lucky.

[JPC82]

footballers get battered quite a bit, nothing to do with McCormick but these blokes work hard from 7/8 years old to earn what they do today, ive known so many lads who were great players but didnt put the work in and wouldnt make the same sacrifices as the lads who made it did

[leefer]

Its not just footballers though is it...Lesley Grantham killed a man in cold blood,got out made millions.....if you kill or rape you shouldnt ever be let out of prison IMO....most rapists commit other foul crimes when let out.

I think JPC is right, the sentence is the thing that's wrong, not letting him play (assuming he ever plays again).

Surely the privilige is not being in prison. I'm sure anyone who's been inside and done things with their life since they've been out will tell you that.

In that respect JPC is absolutely right - it's the sentencing that's wrong and not the allowing them to play.

Anyway, it's all rather hypothetical. He may never play again.
