Problem in all this is that without the Richard Dunne of late, playing wise, I don't think the rest of them are up to the job of keeping us in this division.

Really?

I think there's more chance of us staying up without him.

The strange one here is how highly I rated both as captain material, it's the captains job to speak out naturally, the crux of it is just how much was on behalf of the dissenters and how much of it was the drunken ramblings of a couple of self serving players or even drunk enough to care. Either way I think Dunne's gone this summer and hopefully we'll have Clark in his place as the Gary Cahill who wont get sold.

They were shoe in's in the MON days too, so GH is rocking their worlds.

Sorry if this has already been asked but has anyone heard anything about the meeting that was held today? They'd have to tell us if Dunne receives a ban wouldn't they. Probably just a hefty fine.

Haha excellent. Would have been good if you could have chopped off Dunne's head.

No really does anyone know what happened?

Timothy Abraham has just tweeted that a bit more info on the reasons behind it will be hitting the web tonight.

He also said there's something on VT which gives the gist of what it is about, and it the post i think he is referring to is about some of the senior pros not liking how hard Robert Duverne is working them at this stage of the season, Collins and Dunne among them.

Also that MON used to train them much less hard and give them more time off, and they're not happy with the arrangements now.

Also goes on to say that the younger players at the club absolutely love the new training regime.

I find it hard to find much sympathy for extremely well paid athletes complaining about having to do actual work rather than mope around golf courses all afternoon (or pubs in the case of Dunne). I know that's a simplification of the matter, but it's my gut instinct, nonetheless.

It'd be interesting to find out when exactly Dunne does expect to work hard on his fitness. It sure as hell wasn't pre-season.
