It is after all difficult for any criminal to get work so I guess he's going to struggle.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I do know of a few former cons who do an honest days work. I know of a gentleman bricklayer who taught his skills to cons in our local prison (Highdown). They actually leave prison with work qualifications and why not if it gives them a chance in life to better themselves.
If I am expected to feel sympathy for a convicted rapist who is unable to return to his overpaid sport I can direct him to the word sympathy in the dictionary. It lies between soot and syphilis. I reserve my sympathy for the victims of crime.

On here we have statements that jury knew best, he should show remorse (for something he says was not rape, so why would he be showing remorse?) and that he is only half way through sentence etc. He is out and he needs to do something. If he is a good footballer and goal scorer why not allowed to do that?
There is an appeal in process.
" The Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) said in October that they would fast-track its inquiry into Evans' sentence, however it could still take 35 weeks for the independent public body to make a decision."

I agree with NJ on this one.
He has been released after completing only 50% of his 5 year sentence, and he is now out on some kind of licence I presume. He is also on the "Violent and Sex Offender Register" indefinitely, although his appeal is pending.
Until his appeal is dealt with, I really can't see any Club taking him on. If he were to show some kind of remorse, maybe the situation would be different, but he hasn't shown any inclination so far.
I'm afraid that all this is of his on doing.

//If he were to show some kind of remorse, maybe the situation would be different, but he hasn't shown any inclination so far. //
However ,if he was to show some kind of remorse now - the accusation would be that he is only doing it to get back into football and that he is not really remorseful
no easy solutions here

I've not followed this story but it seems to me should an innocent be accused they would most likely deny guilt, and not show any remorse for something they didn't do. It seems a strange thing to judge someone on.
If he is found guilty then he will inevitably find it difficult to get a job in the public eye again. If found not guilty then it *ought* not affect him, but probably will.
Meantime, I don't think I'd want to attract flak by employing him yet. He should lie low until it's all settled.

The jury did the job required of them by the law of the country "knowing best" is immaterial, they made a judgement on evidence.... if we question that we question the whole system of law dating back how long??? Magna Carta?? He was convicted of Rape under the terms of our law, isn't that the way it should be??
