    The Peterborough United striker has been charged with misconduct by the F.A.
    for historical online posts , which allegedly include " reference to ***ual orientation ".
    The 27 year old was 18 years of age at the time, when social media comments made
    between 27th October 2012 to 6th March 2013.
    The forward is charged with 6 breaches of F.A. rule E3 as well as an ' aggravated breach '
    of F.A. rule E3.2.
    At the time of alleged posts, Peterborough United was the players parent club, but out
    on loan some of the period of time.

    On loan Southend United 1st October 2012 to 1st November 2012

    On loan Bury 23rd February 2013 to 28th April 2013.
    Snowflakes nothing more but this is a serious situation for many of us in this day and age. Most companies will search your social media activity and anything what they consider concerning could have a massive impact on you getting employed. So if you’ve commented on a post that could in anyway be seen as racist, ***ist, homophobic etc, you’ve had it. Think back over the last 10 years, how many people will have expressed their opinions on topics like, new genders, non binary, immigration etc, all potential minefields.

    Go back a bit further, say 20 years or 30, 40. Office banter, what might have been said to the girls in the office, how many bums may have been slapped, how many comments made about how they look. It only takes someone to look back and feel offended by what happened and soon they could be a knock at your door.

    I’ve worked with groups of women who were like bitches on heat, every day someone would be saying ***ualised stuff to me, as Lewd as it gets but I just saw it as banter, was sometimes embarrassed but never offended. That said I could make out now I was deeply offended at the time, that it’s affected me my whole life. I could put the blame on my then employers, some of the worse culprits were managers. It will only take some successful claims for compensation and you watch the floodgates open, the no win no fee brigade will have a field day.

    For me it’s a load of b0110x but I do think things may well start coming back to haunt people, all people in all walks of life potentially!!!!

    Your post seems a bit over the top Riley but the sad thing is....it isn't. The last Smiths album titled 'Strangeways Here We Come' was based on the theory that 'everyone' will end up in prison eventually. Orwellian times have arrived!
