Arsenal were correct in not finding him guilty before a trial, if they had suspended him, they were telling him we don’t believe your side of the story which would be grossly unfair
We have seen several high profile people found guilty in public opinion only to be found innocent in the only court that matters

We have seen this script play over and over. When such reports come out we assumed the football player or celebrity is guilty.we see the women as guilty can’t we for once look at the celebrities as victim. My advice to this footballers is to be extra careful with this ladies.

Very sad that all these allegations always come against black African players. As an Advocate I also find it very sad that people a quick to judge without allowing the law to take its course. At the end of it all it will be found that he is innocent but his name will still have been tainted. Cry beloved Africa.

You wholeheartedly agreed with unproven allegations . Change your fabrics and start wearing garments laden with conscience.

Arsenal did well by refusing to join the bandwagon of “judge him first before he’s heard”. Allegations do not have any other description, they are just allegations. If Patey had indeed committed those acts, it’s the court that finds it out when all the parties present thier evidence.

Stop judging people based on what others say.

I don’t know how you people in the UK run your lives… you people seem to believe everything that women say. How can you be equal yet a woman’s word is more believable than a man’s would?
Here in Africa, we are all equal, a word for a word. Proof for proof.
You can’t just blame someone over something just because someone has accused them.
I can’t say that Partey is Innocent either, there could have been subjective reasons and situational circumstances that could have led to these allegations. People should also be mindful of whom or where they spend their time.
That said, please let us all know that we are not righteous in all our dealings. So let’s be kind in judgement of others.

That is simply not true. Partey was a player I coveted, I have said on countless times how good he has been. My issue with himn – when I have had it – is because of his injury proneness – it has nothing to do with the colour of his skin. Do I say the same thing about the other black players at Arsenal? Of course not! In terms of on the pitch, I have only ever been disappointed with his lack of availability, not the player. And if you have followed me closely for some time, you would know that already.

I am very surprised that you have passed a judgement even before the accused is trialled. You have to remember that we seen cases like this before where the accused were proven innocent. The sensible thing is to wait for justice to intervene before passing any judgement.
I am surprised that you have been allowed a column to pass judgement without trial.

Very simple, the court is there because they don’t just assume that someone is guilty. The suspect has to be tried first. Arsenal has no way of knowing the final court ruling so I don’t see anything wrong the club did. My thoughts with the involved victims

It’s disappointing that some Arsenal fans are so quick to judge Partey based solely on allegations. Both as a club and as a society, we should uphold the principle of “innocent until proven guilty.” A person’s career shouldn’t be jeopardised by an unproven accusation.
Perhaps the club could have quietly suspended him, citing injury, while the investigation ran its course. The media also has a responsibility not to allow public opinion to predetermine guilt.

Bloody nonsense, this concrete evidence you’ve seen! Care to elaborate? I looked at everything that girl plastered on social media at the time and it was a money grab at best. She was after his money plain and simple. You and your Mrs virtue signalling to prove to the world you’re “good” people when actually it shows you to be part of the problem.

You admit you don’t know the ins and outs of this situation but you and your misses agree the player should have been sacked……. Tat says more about you and your misses than te accused…

We were both sunken each time his name was on the teamsheet. The idea of innocent until proven guilty doesn’t really stand here as the evidence was concrete and obvious from the get-go.

Nice to know we weren’t the only ones who felt this way. Questions need to be asked.

This isn’t new news and was publicised back when the initial accusations were made. Then followed by counter accusations of the offended parties being a spurned ex girlfriend and her friend. The third accusation seemed more spurious from my memory. Someone is lying that’s the only fact known currently.

You, just like the rest of us, don’t know the facts so your supposition is poor form. The club stuck by him so clearly believe his version of events?

The player seems to welcome the bringing of charges as an opportunity to clear his name. If he is guilty then he will be found so and then you can question the clubs actions and decry the player as sub human – but your decision to do so now – rather than be objective for a player that has been largely great for us since his arrival – we’ll, there is nothing more to say in my view.

As for timing – Partey is out of contract and will likely be leaving the UK – perhaps to a country with less that simple extradition protocols. I imagine that’s a CPS decision point

I hope he is innocent – but support the most stringent penalties if he is found otherwise- until then ….

Days of believing all women are over. Did you not learn that women have been lying on men for centuries and getting them killed? Don’t you know the modern version of that is financial gain?

You saw what Amber Hurd did to Mr Depp, Mendi(killed his career with an accusation), etc…

In fact a lying white woman is responsible for black Wall Street in America to be burned down and caused the death of many.

Tell me the consequence(s) for making a false accusation for anyone when it’s proven for destroying someone?

You don’t seem to understand how the criminal justice system works.

“how we talk about what is a very serious crime”

An allegation of a crime it is not a crime.

You are essentially announcing partey’s guilt — Did you do the same for Jonny Depp, Emery, Mendy, McDonald and others?
