Adam Johnson's sister launches campaign in support of his appeal

According to The Guardian, the player's sister Faye Johnson set up a Facebook page asking users to support Johnson in his appeal, posting a black and white image of Johnson and his daughter wearing a Sunderland jersey.

The Facebook picture is titled "Justice for Johnson" and urges followers: "Change your profile picture to support Adam Johnson's appeal".

This comes after a FB group supporting the campaign was taken down. She published the photo hours after Facebook removed a page in support of Johnson.
