Not defending the guy, but what happened to innocent until proven guilty?

That's a fair point but even if he is found not guilty of this and the manager assault, he seems to attract bad publicity and off-field attention like no other.

Even if proven innocent, it's not a great scenario for a club if your manager is forever distracted fighting (pardon the pun) off-field accusations. Whether it's his fault or not that he attracts that attention, he still does and it still detracts from the job.

I'm glad we never went anywhere near him for our manager's role.

Fair point… although I think my description is independent of this incident.

Not sure he should have been involved in football from the moment he put a cigarette out on a youth team players eye at city.

His reputation is also not helped by:

His prison sentence for assault.

Or when he admitted the grievous bodily harm on his teammate Dabo.

I think he is also currently on bail for another assault.

Either way… He’s a scumbag.

He's either really, really unlucky to have all these unfounded allegations made about him, or he's got one or two issues he needs to resolve.

His trial for the Daniel Stendel incident has been adjourned until November.

As a player he would have been protected to a certain degree, I'm sure there were other instances that didn't get out. 

Now he's a manager, there is nobody to protect you, you're the one supposed to be leading by example. One of those players that if he didn't have the gift of being a footballer, would be in and out of prison refusing to reform.
