course you can. From the Telegraph article:
Quote:
Lawyers also share the belief that Arsenal should have stood down Partey from duties when it became clear a serious and significant investigation was taking place.
As Partey was charged, Dino Nocivelli, a Leigh Day partner who has worked on several high-profile abuse cases in sport, told Telegraph Sport: “I think the fact that the defendant in these cases has been able to continue his working life is wrong and clearly sends the wrong message for such serious allegations as rape and sexual assault.
“The player should have been suspended while his football club and the Football Association investigated the allegations, with no prospect of resuming his work until the investigations were concluded.”
