No way can you blame the club for his drink driving he was out in a car at 4.10 in the morning he is to blame and him only imo! The club can only do so much look at football and Rooney and all his night time activity no-one blamed United then !

What I'm saying is the players CANNOT be monitored 24/7 all the club can do is try and point players towards the lifestyle they should be living. There is no way you can stop these sort of things happening away from the club in players free time! What the Club CAN do is show a much firmer zero tolerance when players step out of line and if a player making a bad error in his life has underlying issues that have caused certain actions by all means help them. But if there's actions are just bad errors of judgement well then the players should know better and the book needs throwing at them and showing them that this kind of stuff wont be tolerated by the club!!

I agree, and that is the part that it doesn't appear is being done because too many players are going out and doing it.

We could have done with him at Leeds. He's not playing well but we've now lost Flower for quite a while as well.
I'd be curious to know what medical advice, if any, he was given after suffering concussion and possible medication against Wire. Surely he'd be told not to drive for 24 hours? Avoid alcohol for 24 hours? Just as a precautionary method for his own good? Maybe? Maybe not?

I can see Radlinski using concussion as an excuse for his dangerous and illegal behaviour and claiming that it is not another example of the poisonous culture he's presiding over.

All it takes is self discipline, they’re grown men and should know better. I’m also angry that they were or on the lads after a defeat, that should be stopped straight away. Only allowed out if they win.

We are a professional Club being run by a bunch of amateurs.We have a management structure but what are the credentials of the various managers and what have they achieved in their current roles ?.As fans the treatment we receive borders on contempt !!!.I can only conclude that Lenagen’s management team comprises of a set of nodding dogs .
I have previously been loathe to criticise Lenagen but enough is enough and the buck stops with him.He needs to get a grip and fast because he has already lost a generation of season ticket holders and is in danger of losing another.

'Allowed out' They are grown men!

I do on call 1 in 5 weeks, for that I get paid standby money and aint allowed to drink alcohol or go too far in case I’m called out. I think it’s a fair deal.

Didn’t Maguire issue a booze ban at one spell? It’s not something new mate, plenty teams will do. To say you are treating them like kids, well that’s a load of Bullocks. They are professional sportsmen so they shouldn’t be going out getting bladdered, this isn’t the 1980s or amateur rugby. No wonder we are crap.

What do you think fighters do? Do you think their nutritionists get told to stop treating them like kids by telling them not to eat crap and drink alcohol? Or do the professional sportsmen take sound advice about their nutrition and hydration if they want to succeed and have that edge over their opponent? Don’t talk crap Grimmy, this isn’t the normal 9-5 workplace, this is top level sport.

Why don’t we just jack in the Rugby and open up a massive rehab centre for drug users, drink drivers, wannabe boxers and a whole host of other problems that our players seem to want to get involved in?

Was no social media and forums in them days though so you only heard about it down the pub on Sunday before the match. We won and it was forgotten. It wasn't right then and isn't right now.
