Re: Two Premier League players arrested over alleged rape
Could I just ask one question, please?
If you are male, have you ever tried to begin to understand what it must feel like for a woman who's raped?
I feel it's much better concentrating on that anything else. Just my opinion, mind.

Possibly because of De Niro.
De Niro doesn't speak Italian despite his ancestry. And yet his Sicilian (dialect) accent is widely acclaimed.

Yes, there was Dunne and Benson (the latter's fee has never been revealed but I've read 500k).
I think the policy was essential because, as we all know, our youth system had been wrecked.
Dwight was different for me as he joined us when aged 14 (I believe).
