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.

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. :roll:

Pay that, but the psychologist KM referred to is the one all the media outlets run to whenever a soundbite is required.

^Not every hour on every news break though Culprit........ :roll: :roll:
That's only for the sensationalised reports. :roll: :roll:

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!! :lol:
