Id beg to differ. His last tackle plays are shocking.

I'm not going to argue with you because we'll never agree. Call it a difference of opinion.

He had a terrible game tonight though, and didn't look happy at all. Wouldn't be surprised if he retired during the off season.

Not been sacked, will be spoken to but I think will get one last chance.

We're ruthless aren't we, both on and off the pitch!!

Horney was definitely off tonight, something that is too often said nowadays, but to be fair to him he will have trained all week with Longy trying to strengthen their pairing and that completely went to pot in the first 10mins of the match.

And with Tansey, he is an extremely talented player and, opposed to the likes of Hally, I think his positives outweigh his negatives, and if he can capitalise on his talents then he could turn out to be an FC legend IMO. OK, so he has been banned for been a bad lad, but is anyone 100% sure that this is why he was left out this week? Not just because Agar wanted to play and reward Hall because of his performance last week?

I'd give him one more chance personally.

If we assume Tansey has been suspended for disciplinary reasons, he should be sacked.

As a first choice player, to make yourself unavailable through misconduct when you've been on a warning already this year, at this point in the season is 100% unforgivable. O'Meley played it tough for the team in the middle of the season with busted ribs. Fitz has been superhuman in his efforts all year long. Horne is playing on through a serious medical condition. His actions mean that younger and more inexperienced players are played and targetted. Don't know how he can look any of these players in the eye TBH.

I agree mate. I just think the positive things he brings to our game outweigh the negatives. Hopefully he will get his act together off the field.

Also, where would we have been this season without the Tansey 'run-around' play?!! Lot of points lost without that!

My worry with giving him another chance would be that it sends the message that he is too important to the team for us to get rid. Could just feed his ego even more.

I'd sit him down in the middle of the squad and let them tell him what they think, and let them decide whether they want him to stay or not. After all, it's them he let down.

Spot on Mrs B.

Not exactly his greatest game for us, was it?
Although he did take some almighty hits from a rovers defence which well and truly had the bit between their teeth as the game wore on.

Due to a series of circumstances out of his control, he now looks a pale shadow of his former self. And I'm afraid his best days now look to be behind him. Sad to see from someone who has wore the shirt with distinction and who has always carried himself with a great deal of dignity.

Sorry but I disagree with you there. Why is it a case of SHOULD be sacked? Firstly, people are making assumptions, as it is nobody knows for sure what has or has not gone on with Tansey's disciplinary record or what stage he is down the disciplinary procedure. Pure speculation.
Your main arguement for sacking him seems to be that he let his team mates down & that others have performed admirably through the season.(Your reference to Fitz, O'Meley and Horne), well that just doesn't cut it from an employment rights point of view I'm afraid.

I would never condone any actions that put the clubs name in a bad light or disable the teams on field performance but given disciplinary procedures can be complex and a minefield for employers full & proper attention to detail must be followed. Upholding the contract terms & employment law when going through a disciplinary procedure without the use of emotive subjects as you mentioned (which are not relevent) must be adhered to throughout.

Gross misconduct I would accept as a reason to dismiss but 2 warnings (if indeed there have been two official written warnings) does not neccessarily equal dismissal.

Lets wait to see what the club announces (if anything) then you can stick your daggers in his back

Believe me, it would soon get coached out of him. We employ an illiterate from Fev to run things don'tcha know!
