Stifler Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Hundreds of people on a normal wage losing their job whilst they spunk hundreds of millions on average players, paying them millions each, spend millions buying a DOF, only to sack him a few months later in the middle of a hissy fit at losing a match, and talking about building the biggest stadium in the U.K. Surely there should be some sort of law preventing companies from doing such things?
