glenny_fox Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 Did anyone else see this tweet from Konchesky. I can't imagine Pearson being too pleased with this, if I was him I wouldn't give two sh1ts about his holidays, you don't miss the start of pre-season. @konch3 Peeps! Already had holidays booked when testing dates were announced so couldn't change them! Nothing in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 I'm sure NP will have been told at the end of last season and would/could have insisted on a change if he wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 Good on him if I booked a holiday and my work turned around a few weeks before and said I was then due to work a certain date I would not be cancelling it. Sometimes I think some fans forget footballers are real people too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox 4 Life Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 Why does everyone serially overreact on here? As Davie said, NP would have been made aware of this ages ago and if there was a problem Konch would have been told then, also if he booked a holiday before these tests (which are earlier than the usual July pre season report back) were announced then there is even less reason to think the sky is falling.

General Smuts Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 Kasper isn't there either, make a story out of that? Kasper was at the Euros. Konch wasn't. But even still - let the fecker have a holiday. He'll have kids and will be taking them during their summer holidays I expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indierich06 Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 It seems like it's just an initial fitness assesment, I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem if Konch and Kasper just did it when they got back. Seems like a good idea though - looks like they'll all be getting individual training programmes based on their fitness levels, very good news if this is the case, fitness seemed to be an issue last season, glad Pearson is addressing this.

leicesterisme Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 Its not the start of pre season anyway is it? Just the testing, pre season wont fully start until July? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc_star Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 NFP won't like that. He'll be gone next. Pre-season hasn't started, what's the fuss. There's a few not there. Doesn't change the fact NP has to sell before he can buy & who'd want a couple of million + about a million more a year tied up in a left back when other positions are more key, like midfield & out wide... So he will be gone anyway along with Beckford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox92 Posted 26 June 2012 Share Posted 26 June 2012 I know he is a family man, and is a human being, so he is entitled to a holiday. But the season finished weeks ago, he hasn't played since. He's had at least a month, and a few more days/weeks, to go on holiday. Alan Young said Kaspers shit and we should buy another keeper. Co-incidence??????

He's had at least a month, and a few more days/weeks, to go on holiday. So what? He had an allotted amount of holiday and he was perfectly entitled to book a trip away at any time during that period, be it at the start or the end of the summer. It's not his fault his boss then organises a training session in the middle of his holiday - that's the management's problem, not the player's. If you booked a holiday, paid it all up and you were just about to go away when your boss turned round and said 'hold up, I need you to cancel the holiday and come into work for a team building session, I know you'll lose your deposit and you can't take another one till next summer, but never mind' what would you say? They might be footballers, they might get paid huge sums for kicking a ball around a field, but they're still human beings and they have rights the same as anyone else. If the club tried to discipline or fine Konchesky over this, he'd go to tribunal and they'd laugh LCFC out of there. Thankfully, NP is not an idiot and will not try to drag a player back from his holiday for a routine fitness test - think what it would do to the player's and the team's morale! They'd bloody hate him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well some of the other players have managed to get a holiday in already like. That's all. Don't want a massive debate. As I said, I forgot about the school side of things. Also, I will never get paid as well as Paul Konchesky. You're right, it would be nightmare for me, but for someone on over 10k a week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
