Aye same effect in walking free but morally totally different

That's a bit of a sweeping statement, based on some fairly subjective, and I'd say emotive, suppositions.

From the link I quoted

“ In November 2015, a jury found the case against him not proven, a verdict which has the same effect in law as not guilty.”

Not being legally trained, I feel only slightly less qualified than Donald Findlay in these matters so that bring the case, I’ve always taken it that “not guilty” means the judge / jury don’t think you did the crime while “not proven” always meant they think you did do it but the required burden of proof was not met to convict.

As said though the outcome is the same in that you walk free so I’ve never really understood the need for not proven. If the prosecution can’t prove their case then not guilty would suffice surely?

Anyway, I think we can all agree that badcock was a terrible signing, both for football and non footballing reasons.

I seem to recall DeidCo wanted him but thought they could get cheaper than the £2.8M Blackburn paid.
They were bidding for him after the rape incident.

There was no trial. That’s why she raised a civil action. No idea where you’re getting the not proven verdict from.

Aberdeen should have went nowhere near him. It was an appalling decision

Dont forget we gave him an extension too

No, they asked him if he’d win any civil action brought against him. He responded with a wee smile & a shrug of the shoulders.

No, he said "Helluva lot better chance if I'm playing for youse byrawaybut".

with respect, I have no doubt you have a better knowledge of things internal at Ibrox.
The media reported that several bids were made (and rejected), so talking to the player would have been tapping him up.
Evidently unsuccessfully
