We deal with this group for covid protocols, failings etc. So its very much necessary to discuss issues with them. The JRG is the SFA and SPFL. They communicate with the government together. There are no government officials and authorities in the JRG. SeparateEntityMyArse and AdzKyle 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLaudrup 4,606 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 There may be a way back for Patterson and Bassey. Maybe depending on how they explain themselves. But the rest I think will have burnt their bridges. In any case, I wouldn’t want to be in a room with the manager if I was one of those boys as they may well end up in hospital. Doesn’t take much analysis to see that he is absolutely seething with them. With Tav, journalists will have been reading forums like this and seen chat about “imagine if Tav gets injured” and decided to screw with us all. Given the contempt it deserves from Gerrard.

There's a part of me that thinks we should just cut them loose and forget about them, but when you stop and think about it, what is that going to achieve? It might make us feel good in terms of "teaching them a lesson", but it won't change what's happened and it's not going to put the club in a better position. Zungu will be away in the summer, so forget about him. Terminate his loan now if you want, because he's got a club to go back to and it's unlikely he'll play for us again anyway. With the youngsters, fine them, keep them away from the first team for an extended period (likely through pre-season) and see what their attitude is. If they show a willingness to fight for their place and work their way back into a position of trust then you know they've got a bit of grit about them. If they take the huff or spit the dummy out then get rid. I agree. No point in the club suffering for them being idiots. Id sell to the highest bidder.

Kelly and Kennedy better be in the first team pool of 23/24 players next season Kelly and Kennedy would've been better in the first team this season tbf. Hope Gerrard has a bit more faith in youth this summer. Madina and falkirkNS 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangersross 6,530 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 So Zungu was one of the five. That's fucking shocking. I'm annoyed at all of them but an immature academy prospect is different to an experienced professional ostensibly signed to be a first-team player. Terminate the loan now.

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,723 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I feel sorry for the 5 of them. They're all kids, suffering, and shouldn't be expected to have heeded the warnings from the GE / JJ debacle. It may undermine the manager's position in terms of discipline expectations, but hey ho, they're young and deserve another chance. As will the next ones to do it or similar. Or the next again. More important we forget the implications of them potentially coming into training and fucking our season than get rid (by whatever means). Poor kids.

By rights, they should only really intervene if a club is responsible for a breach - or culpable for creating a 'culture' that might lead to a breach - and as neither of those apply to us it should really be an internal disciplinary matter. But that's based on the idea of a governing body that acts consistently and rationally - so fuck knows what the SPFL will do. bluenoz, ronniescu and BillyG91 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
