You either live with it and put up with his lack of professionalism as Sam did.
Or get rid as Megson did.

As a bare minimum you expect players to be professionals and keep themselves in the best physical condition possible for games and training.Lord Kangana wrote:Why?mummywhycantieatcrayons wrote:Yeah, but it is unacceptable though isn't it?

If players are out drinking champagne at night clubs two days before matches, then that's unacceptable, in my book. I don't see that the line is only crossed if the player gets 'wrecked', however that is measured.
At the very least it will probably be a breach of his contract potentially giving rise to a charge of misconduct.
Unacceptable, as I say. These things have moved on since the time you last played the game.
In the run-up to a game - yes. Did you not expect that of him when he played for us? As you say, he's got a lifetime of boozing ahead of him when he stops collecting money to be a professional athlete.potter1989bwfc wrote: you expect him on roughly 40,000 a week and not to spend any on booze at the age of 25 ? is he....when hes still only young
Um on 40 grand a week I expect him to do whatever the hell he is told. For what he is paid complete and total professionalism should not even be in question.potter1989bwfc wrote:you expect him on roughly 40,000 a week and not to spend any on booze at the age of 25 ? is he....when hes still only youngmummywhycantieatcrayons wrote:No, I haven't.. but is that the only measure?Bruce Rioja wrote:I see, so you've already got him down as getting wrecked have you?

Is that really the point?cophilie wrote:So Diouf drinking champagne was the reason Sunderland lost 5-0?
Course it was,not like they were 3-0 down by the time he came on or anything...
Agree that it's not a great article, not least in their insistence on listing his career indiscretions at the bottom.What a horrible article,even for the Daily Mail.
Sure, the veracity of the report is another issue entirely.Bruce Rioja wrote:Why I shall come down there and fetch thee a clout.![]()
Maybe it's more to do with my loathing of the sensationalist way in which the Daily Mail reports..... well... anything. Weren't they also the loudest when the Legal Aid system provided Diouf with an interpreter?
I simply cannot sit in judgement on anything reported bu the Daily Mail. If it transpires that he was on the lash within 48 hours of a game then yes, that's unacceptable, but all we actually know from that report is that he was on licenced premises. You'll regularly find me on licenced premises drinking water.
