Fining of players

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Allegations this morning that George Graham fined players and made them pay cash. £18,000 found in the club secretary's drawer by the new bosses.

I wonder if any of our lot have been fined for their exceptionally shite performances recently?

Cash has always been GG's style - as they say, an old dog never changes his fiscal preferences!

I'm very pleased he was sacked with Spurs so close to the Cup Final. I think the FA Cup would have to have been nailed down. Why on earth is the man allowed anywhere near our football grounds?
