Joelinton: will not play against Everton (Howe)


Recommended Posts

Was going to exactly that.  Rashford was late and benched.  Everyone praised him for doing that.

 

This is far worse tbh.

 

But people make mistakes.  He can come off bench or miss a game say sorry and that will be the end.

Just can't see Howe starting him (or even having him in the squad) for the weekend. I seriously doubt he's happy about him being out that late anyway (he's talked about lifestyle standards for maximum recovery before in interviews) even before the drink driving. 

 

By many accounts, Jo is a great lad and likely knows this was very fucking stupid. Still, he's got to pay for it as a role model and should be made a reasonable example of.

There is no absolutely chance that he’ll be in the squad on Sunday - silly boy 

Depends on next few days according to Howe. Sounds more like they’ll assess his state of mind rather than drop him for discipline.

The club should think about having a car available to drive players and staff home after games. Think of it like a club "Mam".

 

 

 

They already have multiple player liaisons, I’m sure when I was reading the job description this sort of thing fell under their purview

According to the stagecoach app X78 from Ponteland to Cowgate, change there to the 62 for Killingworth, get off at Benton by Corver Road.

 

 

 


£20-23 in a taxi, I carry plenty of change and I’d let him charge his phone and play his music too.

Not shocked Howe’s comments are as class as you can get on the matter. Noting how good he’s been around the place and how he’ll deal with it internally. That humans make mistakes and all that.

Club have addressed it and it's being dealt with internally:thup:

 

As far as any media circus it should be nipped in the bud. Hope the club treat it with the severity it requires and it is robustly explained to Jo the damaging effects it can have.

 

We all make mistakes. How we learn from them is key.

Alternatively bus X78 to the Airport, hop on the Metro without paying to Benton, he's already a gangsta now so he may aswell be totally bad ass.

Think he was pulled at half 1 in the morning though, otherwise jumping the Metro would probably have been the one. Trickier since Checkywatch on Facebook went, but doable.

I just meant for getting to the day job. Obviously car jack after nights out.

I believe this incident further underlines the need to extend the metro line to Ponteland and urbanise the lot of it. Who knows just how many are drink driving to get home.

 

I've read that it would cost hundreds of billions somewhere...
