In a round about way, we did terminate Raynor's contract on the basis that he was unlikely to be around the following season - a decision that turned out to be pretty spot on.

I never said that, but I am thinking about a couple of players who went down for assault and imo should have been sacked as it gives out the wrong message.

There are a lot of juniors or fringe players who have been sacked, but I must admit I'm struggling with 1st team players in any sport.

Joel Monaghan, he may get reminded of his misdemeaner once or twice this season.

Suppose it can all depend on charge and time they'll be away. If they're sacked by their current employers and then signed up by another club upon release it's surely no different to the current club keeping their employment ongoing.

We paid him off and he went voluntarily

Does being killed by a stingray count?

I think it is about the message which is sends out, professional sports people are public figures often adored by impressionable youngsters.

I personally think they should be sacked by a club, but on release if a club wants to rehabilitate them then that is fine dependent on the offence of course, I was disgusted when our club never sacked Raynor for his racist attack.

Michael Smith ( HULL SACKED HIM ALSO )

I'm guessing those caught by drugs testing would count here and there are probably lots, especially if you include athletics - presumably being banned for four years counts as a "sacking" in athletics.
