An East Lothian football club has apologised and sacked a player they initially pledged to support after he admitted an abusive stalking campaign of his ex-girlfriend.
Tranent player Jordon Forster, 29, pleaded guilty to an amended domestic abuse charge at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Tuesday after admitting to a campaign of aggressive behaviour to his former partner over several months.
The former Hibs defender also admitted to repeatedly showing up at the woman’s place of work, accessing her phone without permission, pushing her on the body and s wearing and shouting at her.
