what do you reckon would happen if this wasn't the case? swanny talked about his binges where he marked on the calendar gaps between training and matches - and that's just the grog - it can't work any other way
The policy in theory is a good one. No doubt, anything that keeps the game clean, and more importantly, deters young men from taking drugs, is a positive...
What I'm struggling with, because I'm ignorant of the details, is what constitutes a breach....
Does a player have to literally contact the club when he goes to the shops for an hour?
Is it a case of the player being uncontactable by phone?
Is there a time frame? Eg. You have two hours to make yourself available?
It's just a little unclear from the limited information we have. My original comment was that, hopefully, a little common sense is applied before players, young men, have their names tarnished...
By the way. If a player has done the wrong thing, and is genuinely trying to avoid being found out, by all means, he should be punished. No problem there.
