    Can you imagine the amount of abuse he will receive from the fans at every stadium?

    He's more than served his sentence, he should be given a 2nd chance. Maybe he doesn't have a future at Hearts but maybe elsewhere, he's only 21 after all.

    Served his sentence? He simply got shifted to another country while continuing to receive a huge wad of cash from Hearts.

    He hasn't been punished in any way.

    He got placed on the sex offenders register for another offence which he admitted to. He is still very much a manky Paedo this verdict does not change that fact.

    I don't think it was as easy as that. I'd imagine his life has been hell for the last few years. If your average guy on the street was guilty of the same charges he'd be in another job carrying on as normal by now.

    His life would have been a great deal more hellish if he had remained here.

    Nobody knows about his "reputation" over there, so I doubt his life has been that tough.

    In the current climate, with all the publicity from the Jimmy Saville scandal, a move like this would be a PR disaster. IMO despite any claim that he has served his time, you cannot bring an example like this back into a high profile sport where role models are key.

    He was fined £4000 and placed on the sex offenders register for 5 years. He will also likely be blacklisted by the PVG scheme so his future employment opportunities post football will be restricted.

    No time for the guy and what he was convicted of was abhorrent but he's been sentenced in line with the guidelines and not just 'shifted to another country'.

    Fwiw no way do I think Hearts should be considering playing him.

    Exactly. Those yams are absolutely filthy disgusting human beings if they are considering getting this paedo back into their side. The sooner they die, the better.

    Forgive me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure he was only across there for a year on and off so the majority of his time since the charges have been spent in Scotland. If this was a player of a different SPL side then Hibs fans wouldn't quite seethe as much.

    The vast majority are of the opinion that he should be nowhere near Hearts. The one person who claimed he was a better human being than McGowan was obviously taking the piss, too.

    Can this thread title be changed as its misleading. He was found guilty twice before. Just got off with a third case is all.

    If your found guilty of murdering 2 out of 3 people then your still a murderer.

    According to people who knew the girls, it's no shock they'd have got a boy to do this. Very naive lad who was like 18 when he actually done it. I wouldn't have him back at Hibs if the roles reversed though.

    Sorry not an excuse.

    Guy walks into a club and sees a girl done up, gets chatting and she says she's 18. Later he finds out she's only 15. I have a certain level of sympathy for someone in that situation.

    Thomson on the other hand knew very well what age the girls were and was was well aware of what he was doing. No ammount of naivety excuses it.

    That sleazy, disgusting, child abusing pervert fits in well with that vermin over at tynecastle. Hearts supporters are the absolute lowest of the low so its doesn't surprise me in the slightest that they would be happy for this convicted pedophile to wear their colours and take their wages (I mean its not as if they haven't employed that type before!).

    The fact that hearts didn't immediately sack this beast after his awful secrets were revealed and he was convicted of these horrible sexual antics towards young kids is disgusting to say the least and they even defended him for quite some time, it was only when their sponsors threatened to walk away that they finally acted and sacked the *******.

    Words really do fail me with that mob, absolutely no decency or morals what so ever

    Maybe they've always been a club for nonces and its only things like social media that have recently highlighted the fact.

    Players, fans, managers...the full set.
