Vinai Venkatesham - CEO

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

Vinai Venkatesham was CEO at Arsenal when the Partey 'rumours' first broke.


He would have known about the investigation, needs to be 'let go' IMO.

I don't know if Partey is guilty of these allegations and think people should wait until the judgement of the court before making any decisions.

I think you should reread what I posted.

If you were being investigated of rrape (admin - fcuk off with that *struggle cuddle* bollox) , would your company allow you to carry on in your role as if nothing had happened?

A foundation of our law, which we exported to most civilised nations is: innocent until proven guilty. It dates back to 1215 and the manga carta? Has served us well.

Ackchually I think you’ll find that the Manga Carta is Japanese. You’re thinking of the Magna Carta which is completely different.

Not believing the victims is one of the charges laid against police and social workers in the grooming cases. I'd take a step back and consider believing the victim and at the same time expect the courts to do their job too.

Believing the victim is different than punishing someone before a trial. Believing the victim should mean you take allegations seriously and investigate fully.

I don't know I imagine it would depend on circumstances and any evidence available.

And having someone accused of such a thing at the top of the club I support makes me uncomfortable and must make many women very uncomfortable. My view is suspension with full pay. Anything else undermines many real victims who are scared to speak out

Maybe one of the reasons he left is because the club took the decision to stick with with partey.

I did, optimistically wonder that
I doubt it but who knows

We don't know, rushing to judgement (pre judging) doesn't do anyone any good.
The way the Internet works now I'm waiting on the indian/Muslim + rape in the mix and he's in a grooming gang and that's why he left arsenal.

Imagine I accused you of rape. That is it, you're automatiaclly suspended from your work. With your boss automatically cupable and in the firing line - just because I accused you. Yeah that sounds workable!

ARL Commission chairman Peter Beattie and NRL CEO Todd Greenberg have announced there has been unanimous agreement from the Commission that there will be a "no-fault stand down" for players who are charged with serious criminal offences.

It’s not without its critics, but far better than what came before it.

How does that work? Could you get a Goon player banned for example just by writing a letter saying they’d abused you? Where is the line drawn and by whom with what detail?

Except he isn't accused of anything so don't know why he would be suspended or why it would make anyone uncomfortable.

Absolutely correct, wait for the verdicts.

Benjamin Mendy found not guilty of six counts of rape

The Emirates Marketing Project footballer faces a retrial on two counts the jury could not reach verdicts on.

Ched Evans ‘suing’ lawyers who represented him in 2012 rape trial

The Sheffield United player spent two-and-a-half years in prison for being convicted of raping a 19-year-old woman in 2011. A retrial in 2016 later found him not guilty

Logic would say they’re a little bit more thorough than that.

To those of you critical of wanting to see a football club act through a suspension or otherwise before someone is found guilty:

Would you say the same about murder or attempted murder accusations? Would you say the same about match fixing accusations?

There is a guy within my company who killed someone whilst driving, completely accidental and the guy who was killed was crossing the road on a dual carriageway. Its under investigation as they believe he was driving recklessly (way over the limit). The guy is still working like normal and action will be taken if / when he is found guilty.

I think its likely a better way of handling than it has been. I would think having full pay and stood down for the time would benefit everyone IMO. Its not a sign of saying "you are guilty" more, you are unlikely to perform under the scrutiny" If and when found not guilty, they can still return to work with a clean slate.

The alternative is whats happened here with statements of "with what he has been through" which leaves a far greater bad taste
