He wasn't paid by Hull City was he? Shows how much attention the Judge paid to the case. In fact he wasn't paid by the SMC for working that Saturday either. As per his contract of employment he had to take the time off he worked that Saturday on the following Monday. Do you know how many hours he took off that day?
they got hammered because they lied, repeatedly lied, changed their statements and couldn't provide reasons for any of it. You aren't trying this case on here and questioning me. The decisiOn has been made by an independent judge and her reasons given. That you choose to ignoreall,what she has put says it all. But carry on it's funny as ****.
I find it funny that an independent Judge doesn't know who employed him or what the terms of his contract were for the day in question. As you say largely irrelevant because they got hammered for their lies. The question of whether he had permission to work for Hull FC wasn't tested because he denied working for them on that day. Based on the evidence in the judgment I concluded he did have permission, he didn't get paid by the SMC for working that Saturday and if he'd said he had permission to work for Hull FC in the initial investigation meeting the outcome would have been different.
I believe that Cooke was paid to put the kit out the night before Hull FC played and he put the kit out on the day they played. He even used carrying a F.C. shirt as an excuse as he said he was going to put it on as F.C. were playing that day. I also do not think that any union would be able to present a better case than a leading barrister.
That's what one barrister thought when he came across me. He was sadly mistaken and the person I represented was well chuffed.
I strongly believe in union support, but find it's use of this case a rather disappoining thing. These guys were guilty and the fact a union rep would have told them to lie in a better way is just way beyond my cynical threshold. Chazz is posting alot of good common sense and also reminding everyone that this whole thing was fairly judged. Obi needs to tackle the dragons in the kitchen. There does come a point where Allam detractors need to stick with truth and reality; just as they (I) ask of the Allams.
You do realise that win/lose is their reality and he probably wasn't that surprised. That's a remarkably pompous post, Obi.
I love them.! They are ****ing ace.! Anybody that thinks differently is a twat. Long may they own our Club.
