Whatever the outcome - and I hope the guys get a good result - it reinforces Assem's view that he can't trust Ehab to run a bath, let alone a business
 
Wasn't it Silva who made a complaint about the state of the pitch?

It seems to me that folk are forgetting who decided to take this to a tribunal.

Silva's complaint about the state of the pitch was because FC played the night before a City game, it wasn't a criticism of the groundsmen.

If I remember correctly, Silva's complaint was after FC had played Friday night and then City played the following day v Swansea.
For the SMC to allow a RL fixture to take place less than 20 hours before is incompetent management.
But like everything else the fault always lies elsewhere - in this case the groundsmen.

The fault lies with rugby league, a silly, pointless, piss pot organisation who's mere existence is the butt of a bad joke.
 
It was quite right that the complaint about the pitch was when Hull FC played Friday night and we played the next afternoon.

I remember the grounds men saying they were at the stadium past midnight repairing divots.

As far as I remember the agronomist report said that the recommended extra divot repairers, that was their only complaint about the playing surface.

I always got the feeling that the thing that might have instigated the sacking was the fact that the grounds men gave free tickets to helpers. It was at the time Ehab had a bee in his bonnet about people cheating the system on tickets, and I wouldn't put it past him that such a petty thing could irritated him and then try to fine a way of getting rid of them. AS OLM mention Ehab probably never thought they would get funds together to be able to fight it.
 
He worked illegally for the scum. When he should have been doing the job he was paid to do.[/QUO
He worked for the SMC and for FC, the only organisation in the KCOM he didn’t work for was City.

And you rather missed the point, the SMC’s claims were made up, they’ve been moving the goalposts each time they get found out.

An Allam trait.

Wasn't it the Groundsmans job to move the goalposts.
 
We should ensure that their buddies in the Labour party (and potential breakaway party) know how they treat their hard working employees.
 
Sack-able offence that

who says he put his work for fc before his work on the pitch? he had 365 days a year and 168 hours a week to do the pitch. fc have about 20 home games. have any of you ever done any gardening? evidently not.

I'd look at his contracted hours and see when he was in the changing room with fc shirts in his hands.
