Obviously he thought she'd slap him because of his advances, and therefore acted merely in self defense.

Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
We being in a position to know changes nothing. Once he has done his time. There is little else one can do to stop him playing again. Apart from clubs just deciding not to sign him ever again out of their own free will.
His criminal record should have been enough to have stopped clubs from wanting him to represent them. The clubs he played for either didnt care or didnt do any background work on Kings personality.
And if YOU had a criminal record that included theft,fraud, and numerous accounts of assault against women/police officers. YOU would have trouble finding any type of employment. So why should Mr King be treated any different?
even tho hes been sacked by Wigan he will still earn 228k from them while in prison.
strange society we live in.

Yeah. A career as a footballer is a dream job. It cannot be denied. What a fecking idiot, and over something so stupid
Social worker ?
She's a disgrace!!thinking he is innocent of 13 crimes-please!
Are you trying to say she should leave him because he's a criminal? There are people who don't consider divorce an option at all.
Well he's back out and looking for a new club. Was linked with QPR, but Warnock (QPR manager) has just been on R5 and said that it's rubbish and he's not interested.
His agent is on R5 now, and still going for the sympathy, complaining about how difficult prison was - no mention of apologising, regret etc.
Sadly he will get a club, but I really wish that he wouldn't

And he's still claiming that he's innocent and it was all mistaken identity. What an absolutely despicable person
Meh. As much as I hate to use that word, meh.
I mean I'm not cheering him on or anything but if he can find a club willing to take him on, record and all, I don't see why he should be stopped.

Has he signed for Chelsea yet?
Why didnt Gerrard get this sentence too, the sneaky bastard. They did the same thing! Oh wait, Stevie's was in 'self-defence' 
tbh, none of us was there so none of us can ever trully know what actually happened.
Regardless of wether he done the crime or not, he served his time and deserves another chance at society and football. We are not perfect human beings, we all make mistakes, so who are we to judge?

His off the field antics and indiscretions aside, he is actually a decent forward who could do a job for at least a third of the teams in the Premiership alone.
hard to see what clubs will come in for him. The only way I see him turning his career around is if he plays for free and gives all his wages to charity.
he would fit in at Newcastle, with Barton, Nolan, Smith, S.Taylor, Carroll...
What did Smith and Nolan do?
they're not exactly soft on the tackle or anything
As opposed to Barton, Taylor and Carroll who are mostly criminal.
Hopefully he serves all his time, not sure of the sentence he got. But once he serves his time, he can not be denied employment by the FA, he paid his debt to society. I assume most clubs will reject him on principle.
He can't be denied, but it'd be refreshing if no-one wanted to touch him with a barge pole
There's a Barry Bonds precedent in Baseball football could look at

So if he gives nothing to charity then...?
It would be refreshing, in the real world, people with criminal backgrounds are disqualified from most jobs that require a measure of personal responsibility
what i see happening, is a club needing reinforcements, buying him on the cheap. Life's a bitch eh?
