ozleicester Posted 21 January 2020 Share Posted 21 January 2020 So, there's a 10 page thread (half) filled with people speculating what happened and offering alternative opinions, then a person who's job it is to find the answers offers his own opinions and suggests he's going to try and get the facts...gets shot down? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it'll only serve to harm him in the long run? Didn’t the bell piece learn anything from pissing Nigel Pearson off? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit of fun. It would be totally illegal to fine them a month's wages and whoever did would find themselves in a tribunal pretty quickly.

An Away Move Posted 21 January 2020 Share Posted 21 January 2020 The subtext is clear as day. They missed a training session without prior permission therefore they were dropped from the match squad. As should be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Away Move Posted 21 January 2020 Share Posted 21 January 2020 Stringer wants to make as much of a story out of it as possible though. Might not endear him to Brendan. Or if he’s right Brendan knew it would become one and is ok with it. The former would be my hunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They missed a training session without prior permission therefore they were dropped from the match squad. As should be the case. Due to personal reasons though which has been accepted by the club. Personal reasons that the players may have asked to keep secret and Brendan has obliged. If what @Abrasive fox says is true (and I see no reason why he'd lie or make it up) that one of the players in question wife is heavily pregnant then I can totally understand why he may have been late to training. I think, as is normal now with any club or manager and their press conferences, things will get blown out of proportion. Stringer going on his gut instinct and making Rodgers out to be a bad person for 'choosing' to keep it secret doesn't help the situation. I get the holding to account stuff but it seems they (journalists/reporters) become blinded by their own egos and lose sight of what's going on. Too eager to create something out of nothing and it leads to situations like we have here in this thread and negative publicity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does does/has built the relationship but he also has to be a journalist and sell stories, exactly like what most other journos do. He's a shit stirring twelve year old boy who sells silly, sensationalist gossip and faux excitement as "entertainment." He's absolutely not a journalist, he's just TheTrueFox with a bigger audience. He's the personification of the erosion of not just sports journalism but journalism on the whole in the 21st century. He's the generic, weasly, "journalist" creep cliché stereotype from a TV drama. He's wildly out of touch with every fan with a brain and only survives in a job because of the kind of idiots that ring in the phone in every week to hound Nacho or Perez (used to be Mahrez) to death for not having enough PaShUn, not running around enough and not being as white English as Marc Albrighton. 15 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He works for BBC Leicester - there’s no need to sell a story like journalist from rival organisations.
