Trouble is though, from what i hear if you play in the 1st team then you then become one of the drinking lads.

surely there is some punishment the club could take on the players.

fining wages would be a start

I would say only if there has been a rule laid down or it is in their contract. If nothing has been said to them, then there is not a lot the club can do.

It's all down to player respect for the club, his team mates and also his body.

The announcement wont be long in coming and i would expect it will be hurried now due to the embarrassing effort from the team today to take some light off of that.

As for the disrespect the players are showing to the fans, I am sure certain members of the playing staff and robbo included as well must do it just to draw a reaction from the fans tbh

It makes you think that mate i agree .

i would think that the players would have something in their contracts about conduct detrimental to the team. surely drinking before matches is detrimental?

the main concern for me is that the players that are supposed to be drinking most are the older players in the team, they are the ones that are meant to be the locker room leaders. I don't mind the lads bonding but the day before a game is ridiculous. If its a first team problem fine all the first team, the ones not involved will soon let the guilty parties now how they feel!

Hudson was taken off yesterday with what was described as a serious shoulder injury. Cockayne is up at court anytime I've heard, on a charge of Affray. If what I've been told is correct, there is a good chance he could get sent down. So I would be very wary at this time of pursuing or going through with their contracts. You would assume the club has a get out clause in the event of injury or such things before the end of this season.

As regards Hudson he'll be 29 by the end of the year. I have no problem with his signing if the injury diagnosis is not serious, as you know he'll bring some positivity to the club. However I have been told we have offered him a 4 year contract at hugely inflated odds, hugely above what Huddersfield have offered him. I just cannot understand our BOD with some of the new contracts they've been giving out and they just don't seem to have a clue.

At the meeting we were told that our squad spending projection was not going to be much more than this year. If so, at this rate we're going to end up with a very small squad.

I have also heard Hudson has agreed a four year contract.

I really like the guy and would be delighted to have him back but not on another over inflated 4 year contract!

Who told you

A 4 year over inflated contract is what he has signed
