[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 946940, member: 76349"] He is getting a second chance, just not in Ireland. Wanting him to get another chance is all well and good but the reality is that his image in Ireland is completely destroyed, there's a vocal minority who'll kill off any idea of associating with him. It's easy to underestimate how big the court case was in Ireland, it was genuinely one of the biggest news stories of the decade, more or less headline news every day for several months. The WhatsApps being used as the reason is nonsense (they're terrible but they're hardly the only ones) but even if he was found not guilty his actions that night were far from perfect. He's unlucky in that others have probably done worse and gotten off but it's his and not anybody else's fault that his career in and for Ireland is gone. [/QUOTE]
