Can we not just sack him?

 

if I didn’t turn up for work for long term sickness and not be able to undertake my role , I would be sacked after six months or go onto half pay. 

 

I think Jos just can’t be bothered to update us on his injury woes as it’s become a complete joke.  I think Abdi has a prosthetic right leg and this is one of the reasons he’s struggling. The glass eye doesn’t help either.

I'm pretty sure Abdi didn't come here with the intention of being injured all the time. I bet he's even more pissed of that we are with the way his Wednesday career has gone. 

Really. Possibly 20k  a week for doing feck all. Id be right brassed off.

So 4 weeks ago he was out with something in his eye and we’ve heard nothing since

 

Wtf is going on?

 

 

 

He was sent to SEE a specialist, but the medical team forgot he had summat in his eye and couldn't see F'kall. Last seen wandering aimlessly around greno woods looking for his way back.

Jeffers for £700,000 when we didn’t have a pot to wee wee in and the then Chairman stated we didn’t want anymore injury prone players in a lean, mean smaller squad.

Could have bought three decent quality players for that at the time or brought in frees on decent wages to improve the squad. When money is tight £700,000 on that tosspott beats any other for me.

can someone clear this up for me please, in years gone by when vic mobley was sold to qpr, we had to return the money as he wasn't fit for purpose as a professional footballer?

 

I had to dig out my scrap book from 1977 out of the loft, but i knew i'd seen a clipping in there.

 

Anyway QPR took SWFC to the high court in 1977 claiming back £45K of the £55K transfer fee due to the fact that SWFC knew Mobley's knees were shot, and did not declare it. They said their own medical team assessed Mobley to have Osteoarthritis of both knees after the transfer, and therefore, classed as a severe disability that should have been known and declared by SWFC before. He only played 9 games from his transfer in Sept 1969 to finishing playing in 1971. He played in 47 & 46 games for SWFC in the two seasons up to his transfer.

 

The judge kicked out QPR's case. and QPR had to pay £30K cost. McGee said SWFC would have been dealt a £76K total cost bill if they had lost, and had £230K debts at the time, and we were just out of the 'Save our Owls' campaign, so would have had quite an impact:
