    Sounds far more to me like someone describing anxiety symptoms and then doing a geographical.
    Hope this season works out well for him.

    right??? like i said we are part of the general public and i am sure the boys have been told outright, do not say a word on this. members of the british lions were asked to sign a legal document not to speak about there time in 2005 until 6 months after the tour.

    Fair enough they are members of a sporting club and are told when to say things and when not to, but surely after he has left the club he has the right to say whatever he wants to whoever he wants. Fava is under no contractual agreement to say that he supports Mitch, so what's the problem with him or any other past employee saying that?
    Not to mention however many players who are genuinely friends with members of TWF and can say whatever they like and have still shown their support for Mitch. Not because they were told to but because thats how they feel.

    Accept it, not everyone hates John Mitchell. A few ruffled feathers and disagreements plus all the media hype does not mean that everyone hates Mitch and he should now be sent to solitary confinement.

    i just think differently is all , no worries.

    when in a public game , everything you say is public, as it is more so know by you guys publishing his private messages on the web.

    Its not like him liking Mitch is a revelation.
    Why assume that they all dislike him and then wait to be proven wrong...why not assume they all like Mitch and that maybe just maybe someone is leading you down the garden path in an attempt to make something newsworthy? What ever happened to benefit of the doubt or innocent until proven guilty?

    If you partake in a conversation, does that not mean that you have the right to speak about it? Again what I just said still stands 'Its not like him liking Mitch is a revelation.' They're not saying anything detrimental to the player's image or slanderous.

    because 30 players and 8 staff sent a vote of no confidence to the players association.

    Would it matter what he said after your first statement?

    His message was not published anywhere. Do you think the players and staff don't already know this?

    inforcer you are probably right however if we tell each other that haig for example has been saying negative things chances are someone in the force will get wind of it and then he will be brought in to be questioned.
    we just need to be careful is all
