...unfortunately offered a new 2-year deal to stay at Oldham.

If the board at Oldham had any moral decency whatsoever, they would realise that Hughes is a bad role model for their young fans and wouldn't give him a job to work for a professional football job.

He'll get more pompus and more up his own arse than he already is.

This is the guy who at 18 tried to give a music lesson to someone who lived through the 70's and has the most musical knowledge of anyone i know, and his source was wikipedia!

You couldnt make it up.

He'll probably get a top job in the climate change industry, as lentil outreach co-ordinator on 80k a year.

He did his time and has since quietly gone back to work. I've said before that I find the abuse towards Hughes incredibly hypocritical from Hartlepool fans given our history.

Very true, we can all think of someone who gets feted on their return... a bit of selective memory loss eh?

Mr POK, I rarely 'bite' at your threads but couldn't let this one go.

Hughes committed a terrible crime, was convicted and served his time. On release he went back to his job as a professional footballer.
We may all have our own views of crime and punishment & reflection and education. What do you think should have happened to him? Should he have gone on benefits, returned to crime, what?

There is nothing to say that professional footballers or anyone else involved in the entertainments business has to be a role model. History shows us that people involved in the arts and entertainment have often been involved in criminal activities, whether that be narcotics abuse, homosexuality (before the laws were changed) other sexual deviancy, alcohol abuse, self mutilation and violence.

Whatever your views on Hughes I hope he has learnt a lesson and that he will use his experience to the benefit of others in keeping them away from trouble. He would then earn my respect as a role model.

A considered response to a provocative but shallow comment (in my humble opinion).
