Does anyone know if we hve to pay his wages through his suspension? I know we can fine him up to two weeks wages but I don't know if cases such as these have more leniency.

I can't see this going down well with Mr. Allam. He'll probably never play for us again.
 
Club statement "Following suspension by the FA, the Club has subsequently suspended Jake Livermore pending further investigations to be made by the FA and our own internal disciplinary procedures. The Club is unable to make any further comment during this process."
 
Let's hope his pal Huddlestone hasn't been on it as well. Surely he would have known what Livermore was doing at least.

Bruce insisted on playing players well below par so I think the joke's on him.

Dunno, but it's obviously misconduct, so we should be able to get out of some of it at least.

He'll be suspended on full pay until his disciplinary hearing is held. If he admits to what appears to be factual evidence, then I'd have thought they could dismiss him for gross misconduct and then sue him for the transfer fee. The alternative will be rehabilitation but I'd have thought he'd have to forgoe his wages for the period of that, plus whatever FA ban he gets.

What's he on £30-40K per week? ****ing idiot.

If it's anything like a standard employment contract he would be in violation and probably suspended without pay. However, knowing some football contracts I wouldn't be surprised of a clause over something like 'in the event of misconduct' blah blah blah

There are FA or PL rules regarding fines etc. the normal maximum fine is two weeks but I don't know if this sort of case is different. It's not to do with contract clauses.
 
Looks like I will have to take my club calendar down in July, don't want his ugly mug watching me when I'm eating breakfast every day

It's difficult obviously as no doubt he will have the PFA in his corner over wages and contracts. If I remember correct Adam Johnson was suspended without pay but I may be mistaken
 
If this sort of thing is proven it should be automatic dismissal and the player has to pay back their transfer fee. In reality I bet it doesn't happen.. We could well have seen his last game for us and I bet we don't get a penny back.

Are you a teacher, or some other such profession that doesn't take much intelligence? ADHD is a proven condition on the ASD scale, and has been known about 20 years, and there's plenty of evidence to back up the benefits of THC to those who suffere from the effects, but it is almost impossible to study the full beneficial effects of THC due to ridiculous double standards, you are not allowed to study the positive effects of any illegal drug, only it's negative effects, this is despite over-whelming evidence that most of the harmful effects of drugs consumed are caused by the impurities their legal status causes.

I'm a teacher, don't insult my profession. Judging by your attitude I'd say I have more intelligence in my finger end than you do in the empty space between your ears.

****ing gomer.

I'm not sure it's very bright of Curtis to be retweeting stuff like this...

Test ain't random either. When I was playing anytime that squad was about i was in the room getting tested. They prob got a tip off on him.

Bruce has a big problem in that dressing room - the eyes and ears of Alex have been useless. This is something Allam will do properly, let the dogs loose.

Won't be a big miss as far as I'm concerned. He's been really poor all season and no wonder if he's been high half the time!
