Finally, a story about a woman footballer hidden away in the other bits sections. Would a trial involving a similarly high profile male be so low profile ?

Interesting, Holden. Two things for me. Firstly, why the fuck is her trial in eleven months time? And secondly, don't most plod wear a bodycam now? Maybe not if Kerr pleaded not guilty.

Still takes time to prepare for trial and there's a huge backlog.

Yeah, but it will only be a one day trial probably. And there's either bodycam footage or it's a he said, she said.

Dunno, these things may seem straight forward from the outset but can get delayed and protracted for all sorts of reasons mostly down to proces so don't be surprised if it lasts a lot longer than that.

Oh yeah, lawyers will stall and stall moreso if Kerr knows she said something. Anyway, should be good entertainment come 2025.

Just a matter of poor timing, the story broke Monday evening and most UK news outlets ran with it the next day.
