BARNES OUT
Logan loaned out after new deal - News - Manchester City FC
He's a decent player, Corrin. Should do very well for you. Interesting to see we handed him a new deal beforehand though, he's decent but won't ever be quite good enough in the top flight. All up in the air with younger blokes, I probably would've said the same about Ireland last season and look at him now. Probably just gave him the deal to ensure we get a decent fee from you if you choose to keep him, IIRC Ishmael Miller signed a new deal before going to West Brom on loan a few years back.

Ironically, if it were the average Joe I hardly think this would have gone this far.
Gerrard off, and on the facts - or what I have read of them - fair too.

He pleaded self-defense.

He pleaded self-defense but hit the guy first ("with the speed of a boxer"), that after his mate gave the guy an elbow.
I was surprised the case went this far, as Gerrard and his wife have well publicised connections with the Liverpool underworld...
Also was a farce having the case held by a local jury and to add to the romanticism, Kenny Dalglish was there to give a glowing reference for Gerrard. They probably asked for his and Gerrard’s autograph/photo once it all finished.

What facts are those?
He instigated the incident
The other 6 in the group were guilty
There's video evidence of him throwing punches as well as him admitting throwing them, and he got them in first whilst he had a 7-1 advantage on the guy

He hit the guy not knowing that his mate struck him. So when the DJ had fallen forward towards him, he had thought the DJ was going to strike him. Hence, his action and subsequent plea of self-defense.He pleaded self-defense but hit the guy first ("with the speed of a boxer"), that after his mate gave the guy an elbow.

No, that depends on where this instigation is believed to have begun. For example, the DJ's behaviour towards Gerrard could have been seen as instigation.
They admitted it.
The video evidence shows him throwing a punch after the DJ fell towards him - which is after he was struck by someone else. Gerrard has said that he didn't know the DJ was struck until he saw the CCTV footage of it happening and then accepted he was mistaken. However, since we only judge on what he was reasonably to assume at the time his defense is fine.
Not that difficult.

AFAIK she only has two children and both are Gerrard's.
