    I don't think Hopkin was bullying them - that squad needed discipline, and not to have bad influences around the place. goid management to get the toxic characters away and training on their own.
    they deserved it.

    Not an easy thing to prove though and the claim paid out is usually based on loss of earning so if walked out and straight into another club he wouldn't get very much!

    I don't have an issue with opposing views just when people are patronising. Which is on Bronco not you. And I'm not claiming because it's all here on the forum and it happened. I took the lead long before that in being open about wanting to have an honest discussion with people.

    This is what gets me in that they whinged about being treat like that when it was their behaviour and lack of application that got them treat like that originally.

    where did they whinge? not one of the players involved in the situation ever went to the press or posted on social media about their apparent treatment.

    Riley got toxic when he realised he was nowhere near the squad by all accounts as with Wright. Heard and read enough reports of poor behaviour and a lack of respect from that lot that it doesnt take much for me to believe they were whingeing about it somewhere.

    Also see the crop of parents and hangers on who are arguing with fans on the internet. Comes from somewhere that you know..

    Can you imagine the embarrassment if your dad turned up at work and had a go at your boss. Football more than ordinary jobs is very subjective and lots of people wear rose tinted glasses

    I would hate it but in someone like young Cole's case I think their ego puts them above shame a bit sometimes. Ive known nuff deluded people who have no concept of embarrasment

    Stealth? Silent......er....Moaning:neutral: I dunno, but we have had both Gibson and Wright’s fathers posting about their perceptions of poor treatment by City managers.

    So I guess a ‘proxy’ whinge, otherwise how on earth would they ‘know’ their sons were being poorly treated. :x3:

    To be fair though. It might have been merited to ostracise them. However it was publically known they were training separately and this will act like a face tattoo when looking for their next club so as a parent you can see why they would be protective justified or not

    Pretending you're the bigger man and then ending it with a childish nickname :joy::joy:

    You honestly couldn't make it up.

    Regardless of what's on twitter, do you seriously not believe that we had a group in the squad with terrible attitudes?

    No.

    The fact that your Joey Barton, Ravel Morrison, Djibril Cisse, Nicolas Anelka and Mario Balotellis of the world can get a club is testament to the endless ego of a football manager to believe he is the only one who has the talent to get the best out of a player.

    That or they’re desperate.

    Sometimes people don’t get on with their gaffer, they move and have a great relationship with the boss. Josh Wright was out of the team for months and has returned to Orient like a hero.

    My heart bleeds.

    Wright can feck off, one of the worst players ever seen in a city shirt and an attitude to match but I can see where he gets that from now

    What childish nickname? I’m confused as to what nickname I have used. Can you clear this up for me?

    If you’re referring to ‘The Usual Suspects’, that was given to them on the other site and many adopted it as their tag line. No childish name calling involved

    Nearly a week later? On a thread about a player that no one - except Fordy - liked and whose now gone? This is the sort of needless arguing that does you no favours.
