Yep in this day and age no club, not even local footy is exempt from scrutiny on issues like this which wouldn't have been newsworthy just a few years back. Good that juniors weren't involved but it's not a good look for clubs trying to hang onto their juniors into senior ranks and attract new kids. I doubt there would be a single club out there that would not be guilty of something silly like this at some stage but it's a good reminder to all. I hope the EFL see it for what it is and there is a common sense approach to dealing with it so the caravan can quickly move on to the next fish n chip paper topic. _________________ 'Collingwood are the Bradmans of Football'

Seriously is that the biggest issue, that there were no "underage" boys involved? FMD.
Most of these nancies shower in their jocks after the game these days or just pull their clothes on over the mud with a brief lick of deodorant then shower at home later. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

I'm betting he hasn't. Ever. He's on speed dial for the journos as dial a quote. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

In Tassie now on the winter solstice they have a nude swim in the Derwent. But that's okay because it's put on by the trendy lefty MONA. Bah ****** humbug! _________________ Rain or hail, I wag my tail |

^Not every hour on every news break though Culprit........
That's only for the sensationalised reports.
These pr!cks should be held accountable for jumping the gun and wrongly bringing a respected football club into disrepute.
And yes, Michael Carr-Greg it was.
Couldn't remember his name, but I remember he had 3 names!! _________________ "I am a great sage, equal of heaven.
