Some serious allegations there,how Rix wasnt shunned after his sex offence is astounding
Rix sounds like a thoroughly unpleasant individual if these allegations are true.
We've all encountered blokes like that, who just seem to get away with outrageous behaviour towards others.
Maybe not this time.
Add these to the guy who was wilfully sex offending youth prospects at Crewe who is currently on trial, it's pretty obvious that some pretty unsavoury attitudes and practices were going on. I genuinely hope the cultural, safeguarding and whistleblowing procedures and practices are a damn sight sharper these days. No consolation to the lads involved in the instances cited.
I have direct evidence that it was not confined to the top tier clubs; "Trust me and you will make it" kinda stuff. One bloke I knew is inside for abuse, promising trials at North West football clubs.
The Crewe goings on I was told about around 20 years ago when working around Cheshire with a few lads from there,apparently it wasnt a big secretAdd these to the guy who was wilfully sex offending youth prospects at Crewe who is currently on trial, it's pretty obvious that some pretty unsavoury attitudes and practices were going on.
