Originally posted by Midlands Eagle Surely the most sensible course of action when she made her original complaint was for the complainee to say "Oh dear, that wasn't a very professional thing to say, We'll have a word with him to make sure it doesn't happen again" and that should have been the end of the matter It is feasible that as far as Aluko was concerned this wasn't the scenario she desired - she wanted to take matters further, hence the FA agreed to the £80K payment to prevent legal proceedings from disrupting their preparations for the European Championships.

'Hey x, hope you haven't brought any <insert negative topical matter> over here.' Must go down a storm every time. I don't know why it isn't heard everyday, everywhere. Very Partridge or David Brent. This whole thing appears like the regional office being mixed in with the workers' tea room. Anything else you think people should get the sack for? This is a debate about what should and shouldn't be reasonable to take offence to the extent that you can be sacked for it. I think it's loony. 'Who are you and how did you get in here?

The thing is...if it got that far as Midlands suggests..why then didnt the FA ensure they both sat down and just talked it through. Instead they went through 2 x investigations BOTH times the outcome suggested that nothing worth bothering about had occurred. It was only because the papers then got hold of it that he was hung out to dry...but NOT for the comments but for an earlier issue that the FA missed...the FA's recruitment and disciplinary procedures seem to be the issue here..

No that is not feasible. She asked that it not be made public, so the media wouldn't be involved and her team mates wouldn't be affected. That's according to the F.A. in their statements to a parlimentry committee. "You can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead" Stan Laurel

I profess that I don't know all the details of this case, however it is possible that Aluko didn't just want to sit down around a table to resolve this issue but wanted more formal procedures to be invoked hence the investigations.

Several people have gone about this the wrong way but I think from this sort of agreement it was inappropriate. He's the type of unfunny t1t I'd avoid and she's too stiff and uptight, which makes him even more of a fool for not recognising that and putting his job in danger after doing so with 17 year old girls many fathers wouldn't be pleased to hear about. Looks as though it's his playground and effects, consequences or how things come across or look don't come into it. A bit of a wrong'in without the sense to gauge someone like her wouldn't find 7 year old humour funny. COYP

It's not that I think he should be sacked, but I wouldn't be surprised if people are seriously reprimanded, or possibly sacked if they're new in the workplace or there's more dirt. How many times do you hear this type of humorous stuff said to people? There's a reason it isn't. It's overstepping the mark. It's something you hear in the playground and gets stamped out by teachers there. It then may carry on by simpletons in some shyte holes and then these 2 cross paths and he doesn't have the intelligence to see she's not going to take it the same way. COYP

Any man taking this job is a fool. The things I've heard women say and.....nothing...Most men don't have huge chips on their shoulders.....Anyone with sense knows these are uneven and toxic situations. The race card is played for maximum effect and advantage......and like was mentioned previously Karen Brady had a relationship with a player and....nothing.

I'm still waiting for an explanation as to how making a joke about Ebola is 'racist'. Does Ebola only affect black people now? There is no way to avoid the conclusion that this kind of logic only applies if the 'victim' is black or if it suits the agenda. I've yet to have someone prove my assertion wrong.

As I have said already, that is precisely what is happening here. When something is 'official', somehow we all have to accept it like the FA and Parliament won't spin the facts for their own ends. This is the most transparent playing of the race card I have seen with no justification that I can fathom. To see these people scurrying around trying to make gain and save face is a sickening sight indeed. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (19 Oct 2017 11.19am)
