    The best thing to do is to ignore him. For the media to ignore his matched and not say his name. That will ruin his career more than anything.

    Well that’s not something that’s going to happen. Nor should it as he has already paid a price for been a dick and should be allowed get on with his life without fools like these turning up to make themselves feel important.

    Actually you kind of implied all jews were mass murderers.



    And you had said previously Israelis shot children from from their bunkers.


    Ok, I'll bite

    did some Israeli soldiers assasinate children from bunkers?

    This is a question. Not a statement, lest I be accused of something or other.

    kind regards,

    People tend to use personal insults when they have nowhere else to go in an argument.


    Its a shame neither of you can discuss a topic without them.

    I try not to be rude to people. I am human though.

    I do see myself as plain speaking though. I can't do it in real life though. You have to be careful.

    You're only talking gibberish. You already said you want Paddy Jackson "ruined"... you're also talking about the Jews and Israel... It's time for the ignore button.

    Never said it was. I don't get why this disgusting fella is getting defended so vehemently though. Any abuse he gets is deserved, why feel sorry for him?

    Because he's been punished enough. His life will never be the way it was before, in spite of being found not guilty.

    A culture of guys engaging in group chats that are hugely debasing to women, is no crime (shur der only havin de craic).They have an endless porn menu at their fingertips and attitudes to women seem to increasingly reflect it. It's really depressing, but he should be left alone.

    I am not the one talking about Israel or Jews.

    Yeah would love to see Paddy Jackson ruined that would be hilarious!

    Lets be honest who wouldn't love to see Paddy Jackson disappear from Rugby??? I mean not die ..but just have to get a real job.

    Lots of guys would love to be in his position and would have appreciated it enough not to **** it up by doing black face and being disgusting.

    He said it was not possible to determine what exactly had caused the injuries or whether they resulted from consensual activity.

    “It doesn’t help to decide on consensuality of possible intercourse,” Dr Philip Lavery said of his examination.

    Totally agree with this.

    His own actions led to the public backlash and he has to look to himself for that. He acknowledged his own poor actions, albeit late and he has now had the time to reflect.

    It was a very harsh lesson. Whether people think that was fair or not, it is where he is now and needs to move forward too and put it behind him.

    more than enough now, all should be allowed move on.

    Correct me if wrong he went to sue one person? A politician who posted about a rich boys club and who works in the Seanad....the biggest rich boys club ever....

    This case and it's continued fallout makes me wonder if some would prefer if we did away with the court system. Some took him to be guilty from the get go and will never accept the court verdict.

    Would people prefer if an accusation is enough to make someone guilty.

    Trial by Facebook Twitter is the new legal system

    Clearly shown in this case when 99% of the people had no clue about it bar a few bits in press but all ran around like headless chicken after it

    Some people still are

    You can't believe "all the witnesses" obviously. Not all of the witnesses agreed with his story. Some totally contradicted each other. With the amount of alcohol taken its not surprising no two witnesses gave the same account

    His initial statement after the court case left a lot to be desired. His attitude sort of backed up the scumbag impression he gave in the WhatsApp group. I think this is what people are talking about rather than his suing someone.

    a court of law has shown that paddy jackson has done nothing illegal

    i am not painted in a bad light to normal people that can see the facts of this case.

    under technical examination spots of blood were found.
    they said there as a 'laceration' which if you look, this counts as a laceration : https://images-prod.healthline.com/hlcmsresource/images/Image-Galleries/infected-cut/7403-unifected_cut-1296x728-slide4.jpg.

    she wasn't 'bloodied' or in an awful state.

    The taxi driver says otherwise. He testified under oath that she was visibly upset and he noticed blood staining on the back of her clothes even in the dark. So much so that he checked the seat wasn't stained.

    My head is spinning after reading this thread, like something from the twilight zone.

    I don't know exactly what did or didn't happen that night but he was found not guilty, and in this case I'd be of the opinion that he should be let get on with his life.

    Most did, some didn’t ....

    Mostly because they had drunk the majority of Belfast before going back to the house, then they drank more....

    The main person was the lady friend who walked in on them and was not drunk....some people like to forget her to continue their argument, she also talked to the lady involved in the house.....

    and people are more likely to believe that 2 rugby players are rapists and liars and that they conspired with a third man and a female acquaintance in a conspiracy to completely cover up and mislead the police about a rape over one woman telling a lie to save face.....

    Paddy Jackson was found not guilty of rape and not guilty of sexual assault. There is no evidence that any crime took place. I think he should be left alone to try and earn a living.

    His known contribution to the infamous WhatsApp messages was very tame. The derogatory language was used by others. The word 'slut' was never used by Jackson. Ironically, it was used by the complainant to describe the other girls at the party.

    Yeah but he did say that they were all "top shaggers" which I cringed to death at. Sounds like something a virgin says when he firsts gets the ride. Who the hell even brags about getting the ride once there past the age of 20 anyway. He was 24 when this happened LMAO

    Did anyone read the article? He won't play. Why would they bother risk the controversy. When Jackson played for Perpignon, they had an away game in Connacht. Jackson started every game up to till then but was left out of the entire squad for that match. They aren't stupid.
