Danny Senda
Horrific to read this. Danny Senda banned from football after admitting two FA indecent conduct charges relating to alleged sexual assault while on a course abroad. What a complete waste of football talent as he was shaping up to be quite a coach. And how awful for his family who I know are Wycombe fans.

And of course there needs to be thoughts with the victims too.
Very disappointing to read this
Well thats grim reading, if you take the time to read it. Something that happens all too frequently 'not me, it was the alcohol'.
I'm glad the FA took it so seriously but as the complainant acknowledge it is not something that will leave her.
So, so disappointed to see this. I’m glad the FA took swift, decisive action, and hopefully they’ll provide the victim with all the support they need.
Let’s also hope Danny and his family can rebuild their lives from here.
Reading the full report it sounds like he's exceptionally lucky it didn't go to the police. A mix of victims not wanting to go down that line, and it being abroad and out of UK jurisdiction.
@drcongo How does one change their username?
I think you might have to serve a 4 year suspension too
The FA report makes for very grim reading, the two victims of Senda's behaviour absolutely have my sympathy. It makes you sick that behaviour like that still goes on.
Was this why he was summarily dismissed from Charlton last year?
Bloody hell. He really was my favourite player when I first started following Wycombe - I won a competition to meet him and everything, still got the photo of 10/11-year-old me with him on the pitch.
Disgusting. Real shame he didn’t serve a prison sentence abroad as a result.
I think Senda was sacked by Charlton at the same time as Dean Holden in August, unrelated to the incident.
In a thread of this seriousness, this made me chuckle.
Here is the FA Report

What a waste of a career and my best wishes to the two ladies involved, hopefully they go on to have successful coaching careers.
He'll still get a job as @DevC's plumber!
Too grim. What is wrong with people?
Terrible for the victims and Senda’s family. He seems to have got off very lightly really.
Please tell me Frank Talia hasn't done anything obscene
One of those players we consider as one of our own, and someone a lot of the gasroom had real respect for his knowledge and suchlike.
Nothing to add to what’s been said. Yet more appalling male behaviour. I only hope his victims are supported to remain in football and that Senda puts in the significant work needed to attempt to properly rehabilitate himself and not be a danger to women in future. Sadly I am not optimistic that either of these hopes will materialise.
Apologies to the two people who think it isn't grim and there is nothing wrong with that behaviour.
It’s absolutely abhorrent behaviour. The likelihood that he repeated the act a second time with a second victim within mere moments, despite very clear negative feedback from the first instance, is even more horrific. Awful. I remain totally perplexed as to why so many men act like this.
I didn’t realise Andy Gray and Richard Keys were registered gasroomers.
Appalling behavior towards colleagues on a training course. Deserves a long ban from the game.
Would you want him coaching your sons and daughters?
