PLAYERS fighting in Bar Reef ( allegedly )

Quote: In EnemyTerritory "As far as I'm concerned it is unrealistic to expect players not to have a drink...

I don't know of any sports club that has a complete ban on drinking (although Spurs are considering it I think) and most normally allow it provided it is on a certain night.. most normally nights after matches or nights before 'days off'. In this case both boxes are being ticked with no training on Sunday morning and with it following the York game. By doing this and putting in place these guidelines they hope to stop players from drinking on nights that might 'affect' their performance. I can't see drink being the reason for the current problems, there seems to be plenty of other reasons for it.
As someone mentioned on here it gives players a chance to unwind. Plus from the sounds of things it sounds like if it hadn't gone so wrong then maybe it might have actually benefitted us as it sounds like Webster and Smith were both out together..
No-one knows exactly what happened the story changes depending on the poster... there are various rumours that a mass brawl started between the players (unliklely) or (more reasonably) that it was between two players (not Smith and Webster) and that others simply became involved in trying to seperate the two parties. In a crowded room this could look like a massive scuffle.
Plus you also have the problem of vexed up people wanting their story to sound more impressive and earn kudos by exaggerating the truth.

I think the two people will be dealt with internally and the matter will be put to bed.'"

Post of the day mate.

If this is all true then shame on those involved, but lets leave it to the club to sort out. ATM it is a case of 'he said she said' and if untrue they could be deemed as 'slander and libelous'. Lets just see what unfolds.
