| Quote: Bandito " Anyone who kicks a bloke in the head deserves sacking, fecking coward!!! '" OK let's just think about that. You're saying he should be sacked, fine. But if the crime "deserves" the sack we can reasonably take it that someone who has committed such a crime does not "deserve" to be re-employed and in fact they couldn't be because then anyone the new employer had sacked for kicking someone in the head would have very strong grounds for a case of unfair dismissal...hmmm how does that work then? Are you sure you don't mean, "Since he is employed by Hull KR he should be sacked, otherwise it wouldn't make the slightest difference to me"

Are you sure you don't mean, "Since he is employed by Hull KR he should be sacked, otherwise it wouldn't make the slightest difference to me" More the fact he has committed gross misconduct whilst employed by HKR and brought the name of his club into disrepute. And yes i did think the same for Raynor & Cooke, Bailey, Walker, Pryce , Reardon & Feka Geez that is a long list and im sure ive missed some and thats only from 3 seasons

I think the club should impose some sort of punishment, however I think sacking him would limit the opportunities for him to atone for his sins. Some good could come out of this situation but I think most could be gained by him being retained within the club, not outside of it.

Quote: General Zod. "Oh dear, here comes Mr Bandito and his inane outlook. WFT are you talking about - out of my depth? out of my depth for what - for stating what that particular situation indicates? - And even taking away the sacking of the lad, Castleford's track record validates they not a club high on morales. You're outlook on things is bizzare with your ramblings as a "I know RL celebrities type bollox" as if it's some kind of badge. Infact, I've spoken to a rugby league "celebrity" who has been upset by your inane ramblings on this site. Oh and you really need to let go of your bitterness towards Rovers, it will only eat you away...'" Agreed!!

its a long list, but just a question was there cctv evidence of any of the brutalities?

Quote: chappy 72 "its a long list, but just a question was there cctv evidence of any of the brutalities?'" If there was none does that mean they were any less brutal?

Sack him and you basically put him on the market for other clubs to pick up, the RFl have to act at some point and if they do it now thye have to be consistant when Pryce/Reardon get theres. A line in the sand has to start somewhere

Quote: Barnacle Bill "If there was none does that mean they were any less brutal?'" obviously not, i have never seen any of the other attacks but this has been on tv ect and couldnt believe my eyes thats all,all the other lads in fights,attacks whatever you want to call them havent been in the public eye has such just newspapers and speculation on the forums etc

Bandito, during or after your 3 months did your employer (if employed) sack you?
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
i think the problem is that even if the RFL say "right do anything like this and your band" will only make a rod for their back, because when players/people do this sort of thing its not for fun its coz they lose their head. do you really thing ben was thinking about his job when he did this?
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Quote: red al "pathetic, how many games has he played since the incident. 1st class twit!'" How many times had he been around town before he decided to play 'keep 'e uppies' with a blokes head?
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
We are all going around in circles now. This thread will now be locked and no further ones allowed until the RFL or Hull KR take the next step in this matter.
