Woodytom Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I don't really have an issue with this picture but the double standards applied to players is ridiculous. Someone accused Weimann of being unprofessional and liking his booze by posting a picture of him drinking a bottle of beer on the team coach on the way back from the last match of a season. However because it's jack grealish it's fine for him to be pictured drinking as much as he wants and passing out on the floor!! Fwiw I don't really see the issue with young lads having a few drinks in the off season but do think drinking to the extremes of passing out on a road is unacceptable of a professional athlete. IIRC Weimann posted it after we had just got a royal whooping at WHL.Because the embarrassing show at Wembley looks like it's still burning away at jack.Do you expect the players to cancel their holidays or not enjoy themselves in general because we lost the cup final? No and I dont know where I have said that. Well you're suggesting that because of these pictures, Jack isn't affected by the Cup Final. So if he WAS still affected, how would he be acting? I'm just simply arguing against the point that weimann with one beer (immediately after a game) is in anyway worse than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Don't see the issue with what he's doing but he needs to be careful with his public image. Managing that can be as important as actually playing the game in this day and age. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl the Pearl Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) He can drink all of the vodka in Russia for all I care, as long as he helps us get up to mid-table next season. Edited June 22, 2015 by Earl the Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenko#4 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 He can drink all of the vodka in Russia for all I care, as long as he helps us get up to mid-table next season. Exactly this, however I can guarantee that if we do finish mid-table there will still be certain fans and media saying that we should have finished in the Europa League if Jack wasn't pished all the time!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted June 22, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) I'm just simply arguing against the point that weimann with one beer (immediately after a game) is in anyway worse than this. Well I'd argue it's totally different. Weimann posted it himself, immediately after a defeat, in a celebratory fashion. This is weeks after the Cup Final, Grealish hasn't posted the pic (s) himself, and it isn't at all suggested that the drink is anything to do with the game. So apart form the fact that the two pictures involve a drink, it's totally different. Edit: FWIW I have no problem with Weimann's drink in that photo. I just think posting it himself in a celebratory fashion is a bit silly. Footballers are humans and if they want a drink or to get pissed then I couldn't give a shit as long as it doesn't affect their performance.

Oaks Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 If I was a pro I would be almost teetotal throughout the season and cut loose in the summer. I still have no problem, unless pictures turn up during the season. He should maybe question his mates though, they're getting these pictures from somewhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 He would do well to take a leaf out of danny rose's book and smash the gym everyday. I'd also be able to spk to him about the takeover then as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I'm hoping Jack's next summer activity is a two week course learning basket weaving. Even the tabs would struggle to make something out of that. Anything else he does even slightly more racy than that will just feed the narrative he has created for himself by falling insensible in a street in a Spanish holiday resort.
