Sure, hanging one person who has stolen a horse will stop them stealing another one, unfortunately "make an example of them" sentencing has been tried time and again, yet has never succeeded in eliminating crime.

Exactly. Crime has other social aspects. In today's society I can't see it diminishing. Anyway, as a matter of principle: the man WAS sentenced, served his time (as an example, nothing can undo what he's done) and should be allowed to live (and work) now. Or just kill him. This blaming "family football club" is utter bollox. Then just go and shoot the bloody goalie, if you won't let him live.

Not an easy one to comment on, especially for peeps who have kids of their own. If it was my kid he hit, well I ...... .... .... a sniper and ..... ... bastard. Thats from my heart but my head would say he has done his allocated time for the crime now lets lobby the people who dish out such shit sentences.
If he goes on to play footie and work with youngsters in under privaledged areas and turns the lives of countless kids using his life experiences, turning them into respectful adults, what would you tell their parents ?
He will live with what he done every day of his life and hopefully the pain of what he did will never leave him.
