Some may not have heard of him. He's then ex-Plymouth Argyle goal keeper who was drunk whilst driving a car and killed two people.

I know people need to get on with there lives, but he killed two people not just driving a car, but was under the influence of alcohol.. He's also been on day release which makes things ten times worse and even going to be signed up with another club too. The FA need too look at this? Maybe the family shouldn't have this rubbed in their face by the media, but the whole justice system needs to be looked at. At least he can get on with his life whilst others are still grieving.

Also if McCormick had actually served a full sentence then there might not have been such a backlash. The judge helped the person jailed and never considered the victims. Maybe the football clubs should have consulted the family first too?

As I've already said on another thread I think that all away fans in League One should boycott all Swindon Town home games if for no other reason than as a mark of respect to the parents of those poor children who were killed by this idiot

He deserves no place in any public arena and even in the lower leagues this situation still applies

I notice that Swindon have now said that they are at this stage only planning to give him a trial so perhaps they are just flying a bit of a kite to test public reaction leaving themselves the option not to go ahead if there are problems

I sincerely hope they see sense Sad
