Given Oldham are broke and down the bottom and he is desperate for a club I doubt they are paying him anything close to average wage.
Sounds like they've signed him but keep bottling the press conference. BBC said sponsors had been informed.
Hold the phone! The father in in law owns Preston's of sodding Bolton?! 
Holy shit, their telly adverts are all about engagement rings and wedding rings and how they're THE prestige place to buy your wedding rings. And isn't love splendid and marriage is great and we want you to be happy for the rest of your life with your lovely new spouse and our super duper splendid rings.
And the owner of a company with that image is the one who's going to pay make up a the shortfall in Ched Evans' wages. What? WHAT?
I am flabbergasted. Is he all there, the boss of Preston's of Bolton?

Two have quit so far, Mecca promised to quit once the formal announcement comes through.
I read a suggestion that they are waiting for the PFA to join them so they can hold a joint press conference. Apparently that twat Gordon Taylor is off being a twat somewhere so they are going to have to wait till tomorrow when the twat will be able to join them and sit next to them to legitimise it all, whilst being a twat.

At his mother's funeral.
You heartless bastard.
You're clearly reading something into my comment that wasnt there. Personally I don't mind the guy................the fucking twat that he is.

For clarity, in response, to answers posted to this, I meant this is the FiL's perception. If he can believe it's best to encourage his daughter to stay with a rapist/believe Ched is innocent, he can certainly believe that this will blow over, Ched will score 30 in the remainder of this season and be a top premiership star with a couple of years.

I assume you have a profession that bars you from working in if you are on the Sex Offenders Register? Maybe I've missed it but what law is in place to stop sex offenders being footballers?
I have no sympathy for Evens. he's a convicted rapist - so doesn't warrant it. However, I have a lot of sympathy with the premise that once released from prison people should be able to try and reintegrate into society and part of that is working. So far the only objection I've seen to this guys working as a footballer is it's both highly paid and high profile.
Does it gall to see a sex offender earning lots of money? Yes. Does that guttural reaction outweigh the basic concept that people who've served their time should be allowed to work any any job they are legally entitled to? Probably not.
That's my view anyway you obviously have a different opinion.
I don't think the Daily Mail etc give two shits about the victim, they just love the clicks the story attracts. I can think of at least one player who is a convicted sex offender who the DM and Co run carbon copies of this story on who is happily playing professional football so the press know it's not going to stop someone signing him. In fact now when they report about him they don't even mention it.
At the same time the victim has had to move at least five times because of the continued publicity around the case. I'm simply questioning who is it actually helping? I don't think driving clicks to their shitty sites is helping her in slightest. Maybe someone should offer to help her sue him for damages, if that's possible - given everyone know how much he's getting paid.

I'd suggest you look a little bit harder then.

I stopped reading here. If someone arguing that offenders should have to right to work is going to be called a 'rape apologist' it's not worth taking part it.

He can't sit on the board of a club; unfit person.
He can't lead the mascot out on to the pitch; CRB fail
He can't have any of the youth team train at the ground when he's present; CRB fail
He can't partake in any of the charity work most clubs get their players to do if it involves children and/or vulnerable people; That sex offenders register that he's on for life can be a drag, ask Gary Glitter.

because you don't want to be challenged on having lied about the circumstances of the rape?

NOT ONE PERSON HAS SUGGESTED HE HAS NO RIGHT TO WORK.
Jesus, just how fucking hard of thinking are you?

too hard of thinking to bother reading anything other than pro evans propaganda i'd say.
Clubs do a fair bit with local schools as well, all that next generation of supporters thing. I remember players turning up at my school to help out with coaching etc. I doubt Evans will be able to help out much with that, maybe he could give the players who arnt rapists a lift?

Only as far as the school gates. People on the register for life are not really welcome inside schools.

he's a convicted rapist, that he raped anyone isn't in dispute - but whatever I'm past caring

Probably invites them to become members of his Lodge too, the greasy pig cunt.

Exasperated, not angry.
are you actually this stupid, or are you just on a pisspoor wind up?
Assuming you are just stupid, then you should go back and reread what I (and various other people) wrote. YOU claimed he had a 'right' to return to being a footballer. But no such right exists. Yes, everyone - each and every single person - agrees he has a right to work, but that does not necessarily equate to carrying out the same job as before.
What you have written essentially amounts to 'let him get on with his life, and us all forget about it.' Well, guess what? i think that's a crock of shite.
Evans is an unapologetic rapist scumbag, and you are apologising for him. I neither know nor care what your reasons for being such an apologist are, but do try thinking before you type in any more twaddle. Or at the very least make your points make sense, because your above post is barely coherent garbage.

There was a totally dumbcunt piece by Simon Kelner in tuesday's "i" newspaper, where he rattled on about Evans having done his time. Stupid fuck didn't seem to realise that the rapist shitbag is out on licence, and will be for about another 2 years - in other words he hasn't finished paying for his crime. I e-mailed the paper a letter saying much the same in slightly more polite terms, but I doubt they'll print it.

You can almost guarantee a demo by anti-rape activists at Oldham's ground, and quite possibly at their away matches too.

The premise that I and many others are working from is that a repentant criminal should be able to try to reintegrate into society.
Evans is not repentant, by any stretch of the imagination, in fact he stills denies that he has committed the crime for which he was convicted and has decided, for a second time, to attempt to appeal against that conviction.
Clearly he has every legal right to do so, but that decision also has consequences, and one of those consequences is that many people are arguing he shouldn't be allowed to resume his previous prestigious career while it's still going on.
If the most important thing for him was to resume that career, he could have accepted his conviction, shown some remorse and some sign of repentance/rehabilitation. If he'd done that, then I and many others would be far more likely to accept the idea that he should be able to return to his former career.
Unfortunately, he wants to have it both ways, to pursue his appeal, which depends on not accepting his guilt and therefore not being able to even begin a genuine process of rehabilitation, at the same time as claiming the rights of a repentant and rehabilitated criminal to return to his previous life as if everything's OK now.

But that's the point - he disputes that he raped anyone, he is appealing against his conviction, that's the crucial bit you seem to be ignoring.

I'm always quite astonished by the amount of rape apologists that there are
I'm not, but then I've been exposed to a lot of literature detailing criminal justice system attitudes toward victims of sex offences, and while this shit is institutionalised, it's also reflective of the wider sentiment among our elites - i.e. those with the power to legislate and enforce education and change - and how without education and change, then apologism will always be the order of the day

Not including the various bonuses though (goal fees etc, if Oldham pay them) from what I can make out.

If Evans has a good run of playing and scoring goals at Oldham, then it's as likely to happen as not, and if Evans gets a proper sniff of a premier team after a season at Oldham, he may even make a completely spurious and meaningless "proper" apology to his victim, in order to facilitate the move.
It's a dirty game, and it's all about money. If there's money to be made, then most of the big clubs already have top-flight PR representation...
