Footballer rape-claim student 'was up for it'

A law student who claims she was raped by an Arsenal footballer and sexually assaulted by his friend was “up for it” not “out of it” after meeting them in a West End club, a court heard today.

The 22-year-old engaged in “friendly fondling” with operations manager Allan Smillie at goalkeeper Graham Stack’s flat on September 1 last year, it was suggested at Croydon Crown Court.
