Graham Taylor involved in sexual abuse cover-up at Aston Villa, inquiry told

The aggressive tone of your posts shows you've basically tried and convicted him already. There's a world of difference between allegations and something being proven.

If these allegations prove to be false I wonder if you'll be so quick to post on Reddit about it. I highly doubt it, yet an innocent man will have had his name dragged through the gutter.

I have immense sympathy for genuine victims of sexual abuse. If you read my original post I defended Graham Taylor as I misread the article and thought there was only one person making the allegation.I admitted my mistake and edited my post. It obviously needs investigating but don't try to take some kind of moral high ground that you don't have.

Here's a thought for you, being sexually abused is horrific.Being falsely accused even if you're found not guilty ruins people's lives too, people think "there's no without fire", "he got away with it then" and it can cost the falsely accused their reputation, their family and friends, pretty much everything.

The world does not need people like you jumping to conclusions. Try thinking before you post.
