The 3 biggest fucking roasters on the site. Not sure why you would bring religion in to it at all to be honest. Barton is still a Rangers player and none of us know what happened in training. Sad to see so many with the pitchforks out for a guy that's played 5 games in a Rangers jersey. I don't think I've ever seen such undeserved hated for Rangers player.

The betting thread a classic example. You are quite often to be found in the boardroom section with absolutely ridiculous conspiracy theories, all with one common theme...they assume the absolute worst of those at the club. Now we're starting to see it with players too. It's actually quite ironic you think you're trying to protect the Ranger's name, as I see it you're achieving the polar opposite. And for the record I wasn't only referring to you with my post. I debate the possible scenarios not conspiracy theories in threads. Debating worst case scenarios helps develop a clearer picture on what pitfalls that may come. As I said some people choose to debate the possible scenarios to make things make sense to them, others just want ignore situations and look on the bright side both are equally important to a balanced debate Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warburton does seem to be of the opinion that Auchenhowie should be treated like any other workplace in any other industry. He has said as much a few times in his press conferences. Without going into much detail, I'm currently going through something similar with my old employer. If be stunned if we had grounds to sack Barton and can only see him leaving soon if he's bought out of his deal.

Now that is utterly bizarre. Indeed, some will side with anyone or anything as long as it's against and to have a go at the club. Whether it be don't challenge Ashley, everything going on there is the Clubs fault, side with taig journalists in regards to Lescott, side with Barton, I could go on and on, the same people every time. And as said, doesn't mean we shouldn't be vigilant, of course we should, but it's tansparent as fuck. Big Al 55 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is anything but normal circumstances. It's a high profile footballer and the biggest football club in the country. Not some wee arsehole causing problems in a warehouse somewhere. Pretty much normal for a training ground and yes the biggest football club and exactly why it was needed to be put to bed effectively and expediently. As for ACAS, exactly my original point, it is guidelines but gross misconduct does not neccessarily mean more complex and longer and in fact in the interest of both parties to conclude expediently. Employment law is not just framed for some wee arsehole in a wharehouse, whom you can play with all day long if you so wished, but even that one wee arsehole can cause havoc reputationaly. The Club whilst big in footballing terms, is small by comparison to multinational corporations who have much more to protect and global investors to answer to, but it is all relative. Hence why it is imperative to deal with in particular senior high profile employees effectively and expediently. No matter whether the offending party is in breach or you just want rid as not fitting in. If you have a cancer you cut it out immediately, not wait to let it spread. None of it is rocket science. It's all down to cupability, liability, negotiation and money. Not hard and it doesn't take weeks. I do know that you understand the five days in ACAS and it is there for a reason.

Transparent as fuck. So giving Barton the benefit of the doubt (since none of actually know what happened) is now comparable to backing Mike Ashley? This thread just keeps getting better and better.

Another way around it could be simply freezing him out the first team. As an established professional if he doesn't play on a certain % of first team games he can simply rip his deal up and walk away.
