Not really- I have worked in call centres before getting abuse down the phone and if I had ever swore back at anyone I would have instantly been fired. He gets paid a hell of a lot more than most. Many a player has been booed and that includes Wigan fans booing Long when he played at JJB for england but they have to deal with it. Did not like his attitude before this whilst playing and only got worse. Pity as follow him on twitter and actually seems quite liked within rugby players and seems ok on there but when gets on the pitch he loses that respect. He could be one of the biggest legends of the game but may become known for the wrong reasons.
For me maybe not ban him but stop him being nominated for any MOM and MOS this year as this would hurt him more and more in line that cannot be a role model with this attitude.

You won't get too many high shots from Bailey, Jamie Peacock actually makes plenty more, but I appreciate that doesn't fit with the agenda  |

I agree with you. To be doing high shots Bailey would have to turn up earlier to the tackle than being 3rd or 4th man! There is normally to many players in the way or the player is lying face down by time Bailey comes with his cheap shots!

I was merely commenting on the idea that he's got a history of high shots, which appears to be a figment of hula89's imagination. The other areas of his game are another debate for another time. There's a nice long thread on Southstander for that kind of stuff  .

Well that just shows he has such a bad reputation that I just assumed that would be another dirty tactic he'd employ so it, in effect, supports my argument.
