StefanAVFC Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I can't imagine that's all it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 drinking and smoking is legal but I would expect an investigation into anyone who does either (bar a glass of wine or pint here and there) during the season as they're paid millions to be a professional athlete.

Keyblade Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I'm done with this dude. I used to defend him but he clearly doesn't give a ***** so why should I? Eff off Gabby. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) Could be loads of reasons and combinations, the media as always are just guessing at this point. He might have arrived late on return, photographed smoking, drinking, argued when disciplined for it and been given countless warnings before. Hopefully this is the start of him leaving, but that might just be a pipe dream Edited April 1, 2016 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of loopholes are written into contracts that are never acted upon, its just a safety net in case someone decides to act like a word removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't Sturridge or Sterling investigated for the same thing. It's doesn't matter if it's Hippy Crack or a Shisha pipe is legal, it doesn't set a good example to the kids and the papers splash you all over the front pages. The players get done for "Bringing the club into disrepute". Rightly so. Edited April 1, 2016 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eff off Gabby. I'm with you. Pat Murphy has confirmed it's being done to appease angry fans - he has done nothing wrong. I think it's a good call by the club and I think it should be the beginning of the end. He is way too big for his boots and needs to be binned off.

He is clearly overweight There are pictures of him on the piss His performances and attitude is clearly of a man not trying/caring. Do you disagree with any of that?

About 4/5 players this season could be investigated for the bolded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted April 1, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 1, 2016 And this is why having an experienced football board in place is important. Little, Bernstein, King, all of them the moment they saw Gabby's nonsense would have immediately thought, we need to discipline him. What would Fox have done? Nada.
