His body language is too relaxed for someone who has something to hide and he answered all the questions with ease. The sad thing is, the stink of this will follow him around for the rest of his days. Women who cry rape to cover up cheating, avenge rejection or whatever should face criminal charges.

Looks to me like he thinks he is but that doesn't mean he's right. He seems to think it's normal taking a drunk lass home and double teaming her in a strangers flat. He touches on being aware of getting into potentially bad situations and that's what I'd like to have heard more of. He is still showing no remorse for the impact it had on her.

Nicola Sturgeon will probably see the inside of a jail cell before David ever will. Now that's justice!

3 sides to the story, media not helped, well done James for giving the man a platform to speak🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I have no idea if she was too drunk to sufficiently consent or not. My problem with this case is that the criminal justice system that we have spent centuries building can be ignored for a civil court which does not hold to the basic global(almost) standard of 'beyond reasonable doubt'. If there was not enough evidence to even bring it to trial in a criminal court then that should be the end of it.

@falconhoof3421

11 ай бұрын

We have a unique court service. One of a kind. Believe it or not... The civil claim in law actually worked in his favour? Had he met the threshold and the evidence was strong enough to be put before a criminal jury, it would have been a whole lot worse. The incident occurred, of that there is no dispute. So even though there was not evidence to convict beyond a reasonable doubt, there was enough evidence to show on the balance of probabilities? Like if two men have a sexual encounter with a woman, and that woman was incapable of either giving or withholding consent because she has passed out due to intoxication, then it is up to the judge to convict or not, based on the balance of probabilities. The balance of probabilities this time showed they never sought consent. There was no balance of probabilities saying she consented, all evidence pointed to guilt not innocence? Even if the guilt was only proven to lesser degree than meets the criminal threshold, the balance of probabilities based on evidence put before the judge did show guilt?

I read somewhere that after he slept with her she wanted him to stay the night but he wanted to go home so she felt used and then cried rape.

AWESOME PODCAST

According to the court documents she remembered having various drinks (eg JD n coke and double JD and coke) and meeting the accused, but then her drunken amnesia strangely (some might say conveniently) kicked in right at the point when she became flirtatious, provocative and kissing the accused, something she had to concede in court when shown cctv. She was supposed to phone her brother to pick her up and had text him earlier in the evening, but then didn't and wouldn't answer his calls and texts, but did text other people. Then ends up in an unfamiliar flat and phones her brother, who has been driving around at night worried and looking for her, to pick her up. Is she going to tell him that she was cheating on her boyfriend and ignored his calls to go to the flat with the accused, or is she going to say "I remember nothing of the night" and excuse herself from self responsibility and agency?

I hope David eventually gets justice and seeks peace for what must be a horrible 12 years he’s went through.

Bet Denise was buzzing when she thought she was getting £100k only to find out it’s was mostly given to the solicitors 😂. This is quite clearly a BS story and David’s life has effectively been ruined. I read the statements and she hardly even drank anything or at least enough to get selective amnesia anyway. How this guy has been vilified like he has is beyond words. Denise got fucked by two football players, saw pound signs tried to take it to court failed with that then went to civil court, which as David’s lawyer said THIS IS A MONEY COURT! but David in my mind you are guilty of one thing, not wearing a rubber with slappers like that.

He’s just wanting to get on with his life and support his family and play football. When someone has had suicidal thoughts, it’s clear that they are struggling with life. The SNP, the government and now all the councils are trying to continue to ruin a man’s life even to the point where he might end his own life. It all needs to stop and by the councils coming out saying they will ban any team who signs him are telling the world we don’t support rehabilitation for any offenders and that we will continue to ruin peoples life’s to the point where they commit suicide. It’s truly disgusting and they should be ashamed, hopefully this interview shows all the virtue signal callers out there that he isn’t a dangerous man and most of all a rapist.

@myles666 you can't be found guilty in a civil case. Civil cases are all about money. They are hardly gonna go against someone who is claiming legal aid. They don't get their money then. The one with the money usually always looses. There is a reason it's not went to criminal court. And punching someone in the face doesn't make you a rapist

@@Mr-BuBa Trying to understand your point that there is no "" found guilty"" in a civil case and it is all about money. In the current "" class actions"" against celtic fc by victims of child abuse at celtic bc, are you saying that if the victims are awarded compensation, which I assume would be paid by celtic fc, that that club would not be found guilty of any wrongdoing?

@@user-mi6wi8fr3u you just lost your own argument mate. Firstly people have been convicted In that case and sent to prison, so there you have it. Your point is what? These victims are also trying to be compensated for the crimes that happened to them while in the care of celtic boys club. This is totally different. As there had been convictions in a criminal court in this case. 2 totally different case's. 1 has convictions and 1 doesn't

@@user-mi6wi8fr3u And in my opinion as a rangers fan it's not celtic football club who is at fault it was the monsters who they hired. In my opinion and this is only my opinion that's like sueing the landlord of every property that's had a victim in it. Should celtic have looked after these people better. Absolutely. Should they pay compensation? Absolutely. Are they guilty the same as the monsters who done these unspeakable things to these poor kids? I don't think so.

If a guy said he was that pissed he can’t remember if he said no or not people who tell him to stfu . But it’s still classed as rape if a girl can’t remember .

Great interview James, i’d like to apologise to David, I like many assumed he was guilty without knowing all the facts, I hope he does get his day in court to tell his side of this sad story. All the best David to you & your family for the future David 👍

This is the problem when people listen to what the TV and paper says, unfortunately a lot of football fans are just simply distracted from what's really going on in the world and are easily brainwashed. Fair play to you for apologising though👏👍

paying a blinder havimg David Badcock😮 on your show

Good attempt at trying to rehabilitate David Goodwillie. Your glossing over his criminal record of several assaults (“boys will be boys…” er - no, most young lads do not put people into hospital with grevious bodily assaults!) and emphasising that your conscience was clear about interviewing him because his conviction was in a civil case rather than a criminal court (are you not aware of how difficult it is under Scottish law to prosecute rape and sexual assault cases?). By the way, James, you owe an apology to the people of Stirling for describing it as a shit area: better people than you or I have come from Raploch, Stirling. Your soft questions and chummy approach in the interview do make David Goodwillie come across as personable decent gadj. But the men he beat up wouldn’t agree with you. And as for the rape situation… if you read the civil case report with evidence from nightclub staff, taxi driver, medical staff who attended the victim and ask yourself if you would’ve given a different judgement as the judge did.

On one of the assault cases specifically, he's sticking up for a mate who's just been KO'd.The video clearly shows it. Fair game on that specific case.

Time to get the disgraced and shamed raging hypocrite ex SNP North Lanarkshire council boss John Linden on the show to hear his side of the story.

This is such a difficult situation for anyone to be in. The problem is both sides are going to claim they are telling the truth but the full truth will never be known. As soon as someone claims rape regardless of convictions or not guilty verdicts, everyone loses. The person accused gets tarred with being a rapist regardless of innocence or not, same with the person being raped. Either they have to live with knowing they have been raped or live with people accusing them of being a liar!

@@Bawitdabadabangdadang Exactly this. Millions of women have been raped willingly through their own actions and lack of personal responsibility. Sane people who don't care whether you're a bin man or a Prince refer to it not as rape, but the walk of shame. Accept your part and move on. Teach your sons from an early age just how conniving women can be, get a signed statement & a timestamped photo of her holding it, wear a condom, dont say you'll call her, do what you do and Foxtrot Oscar out of there, taking the statement with you. Teach your daughters that men can & will lie, if you sleep with 'him' on the first night he won't want you for anything other than his hole. Caveat emptor over carpe diem always or reap what you sow.

All politicians are venal the real irony is the UK government is controlled by those who own the Bank of England. As an English Constitonalist I am in favour of dissolving the Union this would be prophylactic as it removes power from the bankers who are planning depopulation and our enslavement into 15-minute zones which will be prisons.

I feel for you Goodwillie. But always remember that your family love and need you. Especially your kids!!! Never give up, you are loved. Whenever you feel down... Remember the way your daughter looks at you with love when you both spend time together. You mean so much to the ones you love. Don't give up on them by giving up yourself. Stay strong brother!!

Good podcast that, fair play to Goodwillie 👍

I met david in the a and e dept at forth valley hospital when he was with clyde. He broke his ankle and i had done ma back in. We spoke for about an hour. That lad is no rapist. A very humble respectful young lad whos been shafted by some gold digger in my opinion.

​@TubbyBrewster11 another law expert here. Civil case , didn't need any corroboration or evidence! How's that fair ????

Being a Liverpool supporter and knowing the power of newspapers, "the law " , mainstream media, I question whatever they say. How this man has had to live his life is a disgrace, that court was just so people including lawyers could get more money, the Crown said there wasn't enough or any evidence. So its a load of bollox & through this David & all of his family have had a living nightmare. So easy for us all to say move on. The Good Will Out mate ... Well done sharing your story David

I believe him

Stay positive. I think he's innocent I hope he gets justice I wish him and his family all the best x

Good to hear David’s story, two sides to everything...I hope he can move on in life.

Looking forward to this one

Always thought at the time the court dismissed the case that he was innocent. Bemused how a civil court can have such an affect on a person's life like this. Hope his life takes a turn for the better after getting his chance to have a voice to an audience. Hopefully others give him air time to do it more. Good luck David.
