Simple truth is, he's been ####ing useless when he's put his Wire kit on, and rubber duckie should drive him to the airport, free of charge, because he's a wage thief
McGuire Not duckie
The wage thief I can let go…but I’m taken back by you calling me “ducking useless”!

Again the ability to understand what statement an inclusive sport being lenient on disability discrimination would have goes straight over some peoples head. Yeah let's just call black players the N word and gays queer, no harm is there

It seems that McGuire has twice now used the word spastic, or some diminutive of this.
Which is, these days, an offensive term.
If Josh Charnley's son has cerebral palsy, then McGuire has used an old-fashioned, now very pejorative, term to state a fact. It's not very nice by any stretch, and he deserves calling out on it.
If Josh Charnley's son doesn't have cerebral palsy, and is autistic as has been suggested, then McGuire has used an old-fashioned, pejorative term inaccurately. Again, it's not nice, and he deserves calling out on it.
In either scenario, Charnley appears to have taken offence at the word used by McGuire. Which is understandable, but this isn't a war crime FFS.
The capacity for people to be offended in this day and age seems to get greater almost by the minute.
Having said all this, McGuire has a fairly long rap sheet in the past, so it's not looking like he was a very sensible signing all told.
So, I cant speak for the other mods, I'm not gonna ban you as for the most part you've covered what's being discussed.
What I would challenge, is the highlighted bit, it's contrary in nature, you understand why he would get upset, but its not a war crime, and the list of things to get offended by grows longer.
It might give you a bit more information on what appears to have been a crime since 1986.

Having read the report the case against Maguire is as water tight as a colander. All seems to be about probability and who's actions seem more genuine rather than any evidence. All charnleys reaction and subsequent reporting could simply be down to him mishearing anything. This is not to say Maguire is innocent just the case against him boll9cks and I'm pretty sure in any court would be thrown out.

I read the judgement and the explanation of how they came to the decision. It's not a criminal conviction where the evidence is tested and guilt has to be proved beyond reasonable doubt. Nevertheless, they believed it was pretty much beyond reasonable doubt. He's guilty and the club should own this now. We've been one of the leading lights in PDRL for heavens sake.

I read it too as I said. 'beyond reasonable doubt' , I'd take issue with that. I repeat there is no evidence at all and you haven't pointed out where there is. I'm not saying he's not guilty but from what I've read there is nothing other than one person's testimony which could simply put down to mis hearing something, there is nothing else to say he's guilty either.

Someone is a lair. Is it Charnley or McGuire? It’s that simple.
