no sorry what I was trying to say is that even with the £1000.00 cash that equates to roughly £30.00 a week throughout an eight month season, if I take your first memory of £50.00 win and £20.00 a draw and if the owner honours his bonuses then it perhaps goes from £30.00 for a loss, £50.00 for a draw and £80.00 for a win, decent money no doubt but no where near the £100's some say was paid at that level.

Wrong, Arundel is the last outpost before the Portsmouth creepage occurs!

His sister posted something on fb yesterday to bring the whole thing into question naturally that could just be a sister looking out for a sibling difficult to know exactly what to think without knowing everything
That is why we have a court of law, of course.

It wouldn’t be the first time an innocent man went to prison either
And it wouldn't be the first time someone has lied to try and cover up their crime.
Still makes no sense why if you had been abused, you'd choose to blackmail your abuser rather than deal with it through the courts? Especially as the 'trigger' was the Bennell case etc...

Same here. I was academic, but also covertly a naughty sod but got away with a lot. I was never bullied, stood up for myself very well if someone thought they could attack me, and overall have decent memories.

His sister is claiming that the fella paid it to geddes as hush money then went to the police and claimed it was blackmail
Well, she would, wouldn't she?
I presume her facebook posts also explain how the man came to be in possession of letters written by Geddes, and texts sent from his phone, demanding the money?

Wasn’t the police/court also shown comm’s from the victim to GG? Court papers are available to the public to see, if someone could be bothered to look (I can’t).
