From the image in the report, its Davo that's being assaulted. |

Time he was handed his boot bag and shown the door, irrespective of whether or not Todorov made much of the challenge, if this is proven, I don't see a way back for him. _________________ http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/ |

If what is proven? Have I missed something, as the article linked doesn't offer any detail about the offence he's supposed to have committed |

I am no fan of Davo's but surely its innocent until proven guilty. Let the investigation take place first. |

You are assuming Davo knows his Bulgaria from his Balwearie. I'm not convinced he does!!!!!!! |

Agreed, and I did say if it was proven, given his supposed stature and influence in the dressing room, historically he has been the 'bad boy' and I'm just not sure if there still is a place for such a character in the modern game. It's almost like he is playing his football in the 70s/80s _________________ http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/ |

He should have moved to Rosslyn Street years ago. There is a demand for goons in ice hockey. |

Let’s face it, we all know he is guilty.
Why would ICT make such a complaint if it didn’t happen?
Man sent off, they won the game...really no reason thinkable for them to fabricate such a story!
Another act of irresponsible stupidity to sweep under the carpet when we offer him his coaching role in the future!
Stay classy Davo. |

OK, guilty of what? I posted this question earlier yesterday evening, and RZ responded by repeating the BBC headline. But what do any one of us know about what Davo is alleged to have said, when, and to whom, and in what context?
Badpress reminded everyone of the maxim 'innocent till proven guilty' - but still several posters are wanting Davo binned, frog-marched down Pratt Street, fined, punished, banned, whatever.
For all we know, he called an Invernesian a tcheuchter, or one of their English imports a 'southern softie'. OK, maybe not - but the point is not only innocent till proven guilty, let's at least hear what the crime is before jumping to judgement and forming a lynch mob. Good grief! |

Need to let the process do its thing. Making a judgement one way, or another, does not help.
It's a serious allegation, which deserves the respect of a proper investigation - but you cannot pre-judge the outcome either way with these things. |

Just watched the red card again there with volume up.
F*****g diving C*** x5 from Davo with a few inaudibles too.
I’m fine with the innocent until proven guilty thing just see no reason for them to make it up?
Same time, I don’t think the Slavia player told Kamara he was a “stupid guy” as he claims while Kamara and Zunga both say he called him a “F*****g monkey” Is he innocent too because it’s unlikely to be proven? |
