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:
We have Lawyers involved as at no time did anyone contact the club to check the details. They just ran with the U17's and a Picture they grabbed off Face Ache.

During the bye, for training they should do a naked indian file baton relay, with no actual batons. :P
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

With any luck the media outlets will be required to add some extra zeros to the bank balance.

Gees must be costing you, hope you get some decent damages awarded.

What shits me though, when they print a retraction, it's in tiny letters hidden in the worst possible place. That's not right.

Nor is using a picture of Facebook with kids faces showing, because as you said, the damage is done. Not just to the image of your club.

Good luck mate, just shit nobody needs, because the media love to, well basically lie to sell papers etc.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

The EFL handed down it's decision. The Club will receive NO penalty due to the actions of the senior players.

The Players however will be doing community service work until the end of the 2014 season.

Community service work? For making their teammates do a lap of the oval naked? Lol, what a joke.
