Message: [QUOTE="schmix, post: 2138604, member: 1780"] For those who seem so determined to compare these players with your average, everyday bloke, look at it this way. What they did has potential to cost the club (their employer) huge dollars. Rightly or wrongly, sponsors [b]will[/b] be reviewing the situation, fans [b]are[/b] reconsidering buying season tickets and attending games. Now if your average, everyday bloke managed to lose tens of thousands of dollars of his employer's money, do you think they'd say "no worries mate, it was just a mistake, you're only 20 after all"? I'm not saying I want them sacked immediately, I'd rather wait for the facts to come out and make up my mind based on the truth, but what these guys did is NOT ok. Not because of the act itself, but because of their position as high-profile, professional, well-paid footballers. They live a privileged life, so the risk of such behaviour is much greater for them.
