MRP / Trib. The Patrick Parnell incident

[George Kramer]

But we’ve used it to try and get a reduced penalty….

 

[George Kramer]

WTF

 

[xjamescleanx]

did he use any emojis in the text to Parnell?

 

[GROTTO]

Do we know they don't get paid if suspended? I have always assumed they do, but I don't know

Depends on their contract, they have an annual salary plus match payments.

If its the photo I think youre referring too, I dont think that was his partner.

Not the first time offering an "unqualified apology".

Fair enough, except we all know the next time Cotchin or Buddy whack someone in the head, they'll get a slap on the wrist.

What so McAdam could have said sorry for potentially hurting him and pleaded guilty to potentially hurting him and he could have got 2 games and we saved ourselves the time of contesting it.

But we know it would have made no difference for us.

This competition is a farce and I don’t want Norwood in it.

Go Norwood.

Go Norwood.

It looked like McAdam was apologetic after the incident. Mind you Im no lip reader.

 

[MrBarry]

Look

Not a good way to start an apology

Agreed, Broad can * off - 4 weeks was the minimum.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

So personal... a text as opposed to an apology in person.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Four match ban

Can we appeal?

 

[Cap]

Makes McAdams even more bizzare

So actually have them out the following week only means 1 more week

No, you see you can't apologise for potentially hurting someone. You only get the apology reduction if you actually cause injury.

 

[Maddogmetro]

I would be so pissed if some campaigner gave me a concussion, and then sent me this sorry excuse for an apology solely to try to reduce the suspension.

Should not have been read out to the tribunal, if the tribunal wanted to know they could have asked if he had been in touch with victim

The muppet has history. I would have told him to piss off.

 

[CrowinNT]

I feel sick
Why are we participating in this corrupt league?

I ask myself the same question.

So its ok to read out texts like that to try and mitigate, but we can't use GWS own doctor's report stating Wehr had no lasting effects...seems fair

Or maybe he really meant the apology?

It’s a s**t organisation

What us up with sending texts, instead of calling someone these days? For something like this, it's surely worth a phone call.
