The verdict is the verdict but I can't get my head around his girlfriends actions - one for still being supportive if him after hearing the sordid details of what went on and also the offering of rewards to help in clearing his name?

"Ched Evans’s girlfriend offered a £50,000 “bribe” to a key witness in his rape trial to help find new evidence to clear him, it can now be reported.

Natasha Massey sent Facebook messages to Gavin Burrough, a receptionist at the Premier Inn near Rhyl.

The 27-year-old wrote: “I’m literally begging ... If you know anything please help me.”

The prosecution described her actions as “akin to bribery”.

Her first message was sent at 12.12pm on May 6 2013.

“There’s a £50,000 reward for any new evidence.

“Do you know anything that could help Ched? X,” she wrote.
