Nile ranger Lifes Too Short To Worry About Things. 7 hours ago.

 

Like turning up for training on time, your diet, your career, your future, other people's safety...

 

Yeah. Worrying isn't a good idea, but thinking comes in handy.

Only thing about releasing/sacking him, is that surely we'd have to pay up the 5 year contract he signed late last year?

 

Unless we can argue something about his behaviour/attitude, and offences (if charged)?

If he's sacked, we don't owe him anything.

He has been "charged" any sacking may happen if and when he is convicted.

Pardew won’t consider Nile Ranger until he shapes up

 

Sep 18 2011 by Mark Douglas, Sunday Sun

 

NILE RANGER has been told to shape up by fed-up Alan Pardew.

 

The Newcastle striker has hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons of late, having been arrested twice in the last six weeks.

 

He is yet to be charged for either incident but Pardew is calling for him to think about his “responsibilities as a role model” in order to save his Toon career.

 

“With all due respect, Nile needs to understand what the responsibilities of a professional footballer are,” he said.

 

“It’s not just about what you do on the football pitch.

 

“These incidents keep coming up and I’m not going to accept them.

 

“Until such time as they stop happening, I won’t consider him. If they don’t, I’ll start considering him again.

 

“I think he has a responsibility as a role model for young players and people in this city.”

 

Pardew believes that Ranger now needs to find his own motivation for improving.

 

“He needs to sit himself down and have a good talking to himself. Because everyone else has talked to him. We’re at that stage now,” he said.

In pretty much any organisation, a contract will have a clause that any action you do which could reflect badly on the brand/company as a whole by being part of said brand/company will be construed as gross misconduct and a sackable offence. See Adrian Mutu at Chelsea. NUFC would retain his player registration but sack the player.

I think Pardew has dealt with him very well. No point wasting time and breath on someone who's not willing to listen. Ranger's in the last chance saloon now and only he can pull himself together
