RSPCA takes Zouma’s cats away

|

Moyes decided – rightly or wrongly – to play Zouma against Watford

Kurt Zouma has had his two cats taken away from him by the RSPCA .

The West Ham star central defender is heading into more and more trouble after playing against Watford in a move from the manager which received a mixed response fro,m fans across our forums

It has also led sponsor Experience Kissimmee, to evaluate their relationship with the Hammers and his own kit supplier Adidas to investigate the situation.

It all follows a video being showing the 27-year-old Frenchman dropping, kicking and slapping his pet, prompting “urgent enquiries”  by Essex Police and the RSPCA.

“They’ve been taken for a check-up at a vets and then will remain in our care while the investigation continues.

And there are suggestions in France that under tough new laws the Hammers £30 million signing could face trial and that it could lead to up to four years prison.

The club has revealed to Claretandhugh that all monies deducted from Zouma’s wages will be donated to animal rights charities and in the meantime our CandH follower Dan Hunter’s just giving campaign  has raised £385.

    Tough new laws in France 4 years but tough new laws in this country penalty for animal cruelty is up to 5 years.

    If the media get their way then Zouma will be sacked and jailed, Moyes will be sacked for playing him last night, the club will be docked 25 points and fined £20 million etc etc.
