    He’s back on Social Media .. his personal Facebook but of course he uploaded a picture and made it public.

    Might be testing the waters.

    A lot of commenters commenting and supporting him.

    If this was a man who had (been accused of) abused / sexually assaulted / harassed a woman he’d be vilified.

    It’s disappointing people are quick to sweep the accusations under the rug.

    He’s learnt his lesson apparently, he said as much at a Dave McSavage show last night. And sure, as Dave says in the interview “How can we know a boundary until we’ve crossed it?”

    Pathetic

    Is he? Great. Fair play that him. Welcome back Al. All's forgiven. Come back to your lucrative career on the radio and telly.

    Go get some counseling, talk to some victims, understand what it means to be a victim of such actions, cop on and grow the f#ck up Al.

    Then come back with "I've learned my lesson"

    I'd prefer if he fcuked off and was never heard from again.

    Idea for a TV show
    He’ll be presenting the Late Late before you know it.

    He was a very naughty boy, and he needed to be disciplined as he said himself.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,037 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread


    Well 90% of his act has been decimated now anyway.

    clearly contrite...

    imagine even the idea of weinstein or whoever else on that #metoo hitlist coming out with the same, ‘shįt, i got found out and i’ve learned my lesson....right so let’s carry on because i’m gay and it’s not same, it’s just a bit of fun at the end of it all’


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,420 ✭✭✭splinter65


    Needs to reinvent himself in some way now. It’s not going be easy.

    So he's admitted it's true then?

    Learning how to actually be funny certainly isn't going to be easy.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    I guess you could say al's forgiven









    Yes. It's a **** joke. I'll grab my coat.

    Yeah double entendres, sex stories, nudge nudge wink wink matron are off the table now.
    He'll need a totally new shtick. Mother in law jokes perhaps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,519 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    It's so funny how it always see.s to be one sided.

    If one is a male and straight they have no hope.

    If you're gay or female then y'all be grand....

    #Men's lives matter.....

    Pathetic

    Like claiming - How would you know what sexual assault is until you've been charged with it ?

    Speaking of which are any of his victims pressing charges ? The lad that was a patient in the psychiatric hospital when he was sexually assaulted by Porter definitely should. Porter should not bet getting away with any of this. Why is there readiness this country and the west in general to dismisses certain homosexual assaults of white male victims ? You don't hear many in Hollywood speaking out about and supporting Kevin Spacey's victims, only Harvey Weinstein's.

    He’s on one of the front pages today, the story being he’s now on a “clean regime” of therapy and healthy eating etc. And he’s aiming to resurrect his career

    If healthy eating eradicates his sex pest urges it’ll be a huge sensation.
    “Al!! Step AWAY from the Pringles NOW!!

    As a straight white male, if I was accused of what Al allegedly did (except to a woman), there wouldn't be a campaign to get me back on the airwaves.

    No words

    Can you imagine the outcry if one of the metoo targets were given the front page to say he’s cutting back (but not given up) alcohol and cigarettes. Beyond a joke at this stage.
