They were inhaling laughing gas from balloons

Sheesh.

Shows the management team has no control over the players.

After recent performances they shouldn't be off on a jolly anyway. They should have detailed off Bruno with a loud hailer making them run up and down Ditchling Beacon to toughen them up.

Didn’t Leicester have a scandal where some of their players got caught racially abusing a Thai hooker and trying to fart on their face. Do you know what happened next? They won the league.

Brighton & Hove Albion Prem Champions 20/21. Get in!

All the players involved with that were sacked, including Nigel Pearson son.

Brendan Rogers when Sterling, then his player, got caught...

"It is [about] perspective as well. If you look at Raheem he didn't do anything illegal. It was something he will look back on in years to come and it probably wasn't the wisest thing to do.

"But for me, it is all about the welfare of the two young players; making them aware of the health issues which come with that and also about the professionalism and what they are representing."

The main concern here won't be the "risk", as there isn't really one, it's the brand reputation. When issues like this happen Amex, Nike etc will all have a opinion of the players playing for a team they have invested their brand in

It would be a bit of a non story if we were on a 6 game winning run.

The stupidity of this is that if you are in a team that has won 2 out of the last 16 games, to be filmed doing this is only going to give massive ammo to the fans who are on their backs at the moment and disappointed as it is. Gross struggling to break 100 metres in under 25 seconds may get some stick at the Amex because of this. It is just daft

Daft is all it is though and it’s been blown out of all proportion imo.

Shane - standard
Aj - first timer
Leo - dark horse
Gross - wtf

"Shane you're a bad influence - 2 weeks wages"
"AJ & Tross - what were you thinking? - 1 weeks wages"
"Pascal - I'm happy for you to try anything, you've been shit for weeks - no fine"

Fine everyone involved two weeks' wages, suspended until after the Sheffield United game. If they win, no fine; if they draw, fine reduced to one week.

We will know if it has when Barber has commented on it, or not and if it goes viral in the news. Let's review it in 24 hours
