Cancel Ched Evans Player registration
Cancel the registration of Ched Evans to play professional football.
Why is this important?
Ched Evans continued attempts to sign for any club prepared to have him are bringing the game of football into disrepute. Evans is a convicted rapist who has shown no remorse and refused to acknowledge his guilt. Footballers whether rightly or wrongly are viewed as a role models especially by their younger fans.
Evans is a convicted rapist who has not served his full sentence he has only been released on licence, and is on the sex offenders register. Most football clubs run community projects and Evans due to his conviction cannot have any dealings with children and would not be able to take part in any such projects.
His registration to play professional football should be cancelled with immediate effect. Once his appeal has been heard and if it is successful that will be a different matter and his situation could be reviewed then.
