PIC: Football fan goes to great lengths to get Adam Johnson tattoo removed

Well you would, wouldn't you?

Many of us have got tattoos which we’ve later regretted, but this is on a whole different level.

Manchester City supporter Robert Mullen was a big fan of one of the club’s exciting English players in the early days of the Sheikh Mansour era.

But unfortunately for him, that player was Adam Johnson – the Sunderland winger who has pleaded guilty to one count of sexual activity with a child and one count of grooming and faces two more charges of sexual activity with a child.

Unsurprisingly, he has contacted E4 show Tattoo Fixers in an attempt to get it removed.

It’s a very unfortunate situation, and one you can’t imagine too many people ever having to deal with.

Johnson played for City from 2010-2012 before joining Sunderland, the club that sacked him following the guilty plea.

He still faces trial over other counts of sexual activity with a child, which he denies.
