Robin van Persie might be a rapist.

But I pray to God he’s not.

I’ve found the past days’ news particularly hard to stomach. Van Persie is one of my favourite Arsenal players, and guilty or innocent, this is an extremely distressing time for both him and his family.

Admittedly, headlines like mine yesterday might not help. But to be honest, I doubt he reads Gunnerblog.

There will be no retraction of my previous article. It takes one glance to see that I only every suggest that van Persie “might” be a rapist. As he might. That is why he is a suspect. He is, thus, a suspected rapist. This is beyond argument. Never did I name him specifically as a rapist. I may included the expression “the rapist” in my headline, but it would not take the most literary mind to see that I might just have been alluding to the general theme, or stereotype of “the rapist”.

I have a function which enables me to delete unwanted comments on my site. But it’s a function I would never choose to use. I respect your opinions, positive or negative.

But please respect mine. Respect my freedom to write what I choose. And for God’s sake, don’t waste your energy castigating me over the wording of a meaningless article.

I admit, it is a frustrating time for Arsenal fans. After the Ashley Cole saga, a cloud now hangs over the future of van Persie, and it’s almost impossible for us to comment.

We can pray that the allegations are false, but if they prove to be true, we will have to do the honourable thing and wash our hands of a player whose career would, essentially, be over. At 21. It’s a horrible, horrible thought.

I won’t be commenting on the matter any further.

For those of you who were so offended yesterday, I do apologise. I feel there has been some misunderstanding. But at the end of the day, I’ll write what I want, and if it means losing some of my readership, so be it.

Much love,

Ps. It’s my birthday today, and Arsene might just have arranged a present: there is expected to be some significant movement on the Aleksander Hleb front. Wait and see, I guess.

    Nice comeback. You won’t have lost readers, your right it’s just a difficult time for the Gunners. Happy Birthday dude, have a good one, and lets hope there are some exciting developments for Gooners today.

    Happy birthday. Btw, I think you should have put a different headline, but that’s a done thing. Anyway, don’t believe everyone in the press and hopefully everything will turn to the best.

    Sorry, but it would seem that you want the discretion to make sensational headline, but then object to sensational rebuke. Take your blog off of newsnow and you can have opinions limited to close personal friends. Otherwise, stop whigning, get soem thicker skin, or choose your sensationalism with a little more discretion in the future. The role of victim does not play well in blogger land.

    I applaud you for not removing your previous piece. It’s much better than Myles over at ANR, who seems to have removed his piece praising Robin when the rape charges were announced. Pah-the-tic.

    happy birthday mate.

    don’t worry about yesterdays headlines. a bit stupid but who gives a fuck what the p.c. (heh) brigade think.

    GS, you are god. I want your babies. Could this be arranged?

    What ever about the possibility that he’s a rapist, he definitely appears to be an adulterer. He accepts that he was alone in the hotel room with the lap dancer/hooker and to date it hasn’t been denied that they had sex.I’d say the wife is real happy.

    RvP, at best you are some prize plonker. At worst, you’re a rapist. If it’s the former, I’ve no problem with you playing for the Arse, but if it’s the latter, bye bye.

    Either way I’ve no intention of defending the guy.

    IF he’s a rapist, it would disgust me to see him in Arsenal shirt, or to even think he wore it – and that is coming from someone who is very fond on Van Persie as a character and a player.

    Having said that, I would like to think that he is innocent unless proven guilty. The tragic thing in all of this is, even if he is proven innocent, the stigma will follow him around for quite some time and possibly blacken his reputation further thus damaging his chances of playing in the national team and perhaps hindering him developing into the player we feel he can be.

    As you said, let’s just hope the allegations are not true. And Happy Birthday.

    Robin is as innocent as can be. The slut Sandra K told the police she was kidnapped by Robin and two other men and raped by Robin in the bathroom of a hotel. Hmmm… now she has FORMALLY RETRACTED that part of her story and said she made that part up so the police would come faster to the hotel. Let me get this straight:

    Robin and 2 guys kidnapped Sandra K

    They went to a hotel and checked into a room together, but she never ran away or told the hotel clerk to call the police because she was just kidnapped

    They all went up to a hotel room

    Sandra took her clothes off and was there with 3 men

    She went into the bathroom with Robin while the other two men waited on the bed in the room watching TV

    Robin then brutally raped her

    She came out and couldnt find her clothes

    Her clothes were carelessly tossed accross the room by the drapes because the guys were stretched out on the bed and didnt want to be sitting on them

    They all had a drink and the guys split, leaving the room to her to crash or invite friends over for a party

    Robin and the guys leave

    She gets her clothes and heads down to the lobby

    She makes a few calls and doesnt seem to be in panic on the hotel security camera that is observing her in the lobby

    She calls the police and tells them to come to the hotel

    She tells them she was kidnapped by Van Persie and 2 other men, then dragged kicking a screaming into a hotel room where she was raped by Robin in the bathroom while the other guys didnt let her escape

    Robin gets arrested and his friends brought in for questioning

    They give a story very different than that of Sandra the slut

    Sandra admits lying about the kidnapping and says she wanted to have sex with Robin and told him so, but felt weird that his friends were in the other room

    Now the Prosecutor’s Office is weighing whether to pursue the case at all

    If you ask me, if you lie about anything, your credibility is already shit and then the possibility of the best lawyer in town ripping your story apart on the stand is very high. The OM (Openbare Ministirie)= Public Prosecutor in Holland is just weighing facts. The chance of this ever going to trial is 30%, if that.

    This fuckin lying whore, like Rebecca Loos, is just out to be a fame profiteer and will do so by any means she can.

    Ok, Robin probably fucked her in the bathroom. Most famous 20 year olds with 5 million in the bank get pussy tossed at them all the time. Just because one filthy cunt decides to ride some public wave to be in the spotlight for a while is the only factor involved here.

    I am very up-to-date on this case and follow it closely.

    ROBIN IS INNOCENT and this whole “might be a rapist” talk is bullshit.

    I’ve got his back because he may be a lying, cheating, sleazy husband, but that DOESN’T make him a RAPIST.

    This is an issue for him and his wife Bouchra, and NOT for the courts or the fans.

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

  39. Bud Cruickshank

    I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my IP go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

  40. RVP lover

    I’m an Alpha male.

    And girls want to **** alpha males. Let it piss you off as much as you want, but you know it’s completely true. That girl you like who is kinda cute in a weird way, but is totally sweet and you have the biggest crush on? The one who keeps going back to guys who treat her wrong for reasnos you don’t understand? The one who calls you up at 1 am to cry about how her boyfriend hasn’t called her in 3 days, and no matter how long you listen to her, she’ll never think of you as anything other than asexual? The one who will curl up next to you on the couch, hug you close, kiss you on the cheek, and never let you ****ing touch her beyond that?

    Yeah, I’m ****ing her.

    The hot girl who won’t even look at you when you nod at them and smile? The one who laughs when you trip in the hallway and drop your stuff? The one who comes up and coyly aks for your help with her homework, and then pretends you don’t exist once you finish?

    Yeah, I’m ****ing her too, even harder.

    The geeky girl you think might be enough like you that you have a chance with her? She plays warcraft on your server, and watches anime, and reads comics? She’s so incredible and you just love her so much but you still haven’t worked up the courage to tell her how you feel about her?

    Guess who just sucked me off and told me they’ll always love me?

    And what’s more? I laugh at guys like you. When you cry about how much girls treat you bad, and wonder why they can’t just see that you’re a nice guy who would always treat them right? I nod and tell you to hang in there, you’ll find someone right for you someday, don’t give up hope man. But inside? I’m laughing my ass off at you you pathetic ****. Every girl you set your sights on, who isn’t a disgusting pig-monster, I’m going to **** 6 ways from sunday before you even tell her you think she’s cute. I won’t bother trying when you finally settle for that 350 pound girl who works at hardees, you can have that. Anything else I’m going to cum on her face before you get those lips near it.

    And the biggest reason I laugh? It’s not me doing all this. It’s the girls. When you cry about how lonely you are? Or talk about how you just want to curl up and dissapear, and all that emo bull****? You’re triggering her “Don’t ****” instinct something feirce. You’re a miserable weak coward, why would she want your genes? Feel free to buy her a new computer and help her decorate her apartment, you’re great for that. But her baby-maker is barking orders at her, telling her to wrap her legs around me and hold on for as long as she can. She needs it, on a primal level you’ll never get to see first hand, even if you do get a chance to **** her. Sooner or later one of them will lay back and spread their legs, but you won’t see any hunger in their eyes. They won’t beg you to love them forever and make them yours. You won’t know what it’s like to see her animal side needing you as much as she needs to eat and breath.

    And she’s cheating on you, I promise that. When she sits around quiet and uncomfortable, acting irritable and irrational towards you, wanting you to just back away and leave her alone, it’s not her period. It’s because I haven’t called her for a day or two and her instincts are telling her to go find me. The primitive section of her brain doesn’t want to risk smelling like another man when she gives herself to me, she wants me to know she’s completely mine. We do things together she tells you she never would. Her pooper? Mine. I want to give her a facial? of course. I want her to suck the cum out of my dick, even though I just finished pumping away at her ass? she’s never going to tell me no. She doesn’t WNAT to tell me no. She wants me to know she’ll do anything it takes to keep me. She’ll rim my ass while she’s down there sucking me off if it means pleasing me. She’ll drink my cum from a shotglass. She’ll wear a buttplug when we go out to dinner. She’ll sleep handcuffed to my headboard. Anything.

    And then she’ll go home to you and tell you she’s not in the mood today.

    I’d say you should become an hero, but you being aruond makes her want a real man all the more, so keep ***ging it up emo bitches, I’ll keep that pussy warm while you’re crying in the corner.
