"As we have said from the outset, the club will not tolerate any of its players or staff behaving in a manner which puts themselves, their colleagues, and members of the general public at risk of injury or worse, or which brings the club into disrepute”
So they absolutely have to sack the other two players. Otherwise it’s scandalous, to say the least.

Keogh was the club captain, is supposed to be older and wiser. He should of been setting the example. He should of stopped them driving not jumped into the car and become a part of it. It's harsh on him that the others haven't been sacked as well but I can see the club's side of it.

What’s the club’s side of it? The two who were drink driving and initially fled the scene should be let off because they have a resale value? It’s an injustice and totally contradicts their statements.
He is the skipper, and it was daft to get in a car being driven by a drunkard. May as well have played Russian roulette. But the drivers committed a criminal offence and still didn’t suffer the same fate (I’m aware they are paying the penalty for it in legal terms). DCFC look like a joke atm, hope it goes to tribunal. I just intensely hate drunk drivers.
I will add that I think it’s also daft he didn’t take the reduced pay. The whole situation is stupid.

Surely there will be a tribunal, they seem to be clearly treating players differently

I've read the thread on this on the Derby County website and it covers a fair range of opinions as it does in this thread. There are a large number of posters there who think that the club's decision is correct for the club but there are also concerns that the 3 players involved have not been treated equally: the "take a pay cut or we sack you" stance has caused discomfort.
I think that the club could get away with dismissing the club captain compared to only disciplining the others but the pay cut offer alternative could well lead to a conclusion that their actions were less than fair.

You would have thought keogh could sue the driver for loss of earnings/career

Just watched a bit of Dundee v Morton (gash game) but saw that James McPake is Dundee's manager.

Just watched the Barnsley v Bristol City game. Livened up in the second half. Luke Thomas came on at about 60 minutes. Conor Chaplin played from the start but was substituted with about 10-15 minutes to go. City 2-0 up and Barnsley equalised on 90+4. Exciting finish to the game. Chaplin didn’t score.

Wait till robins gets sacked and people will be calling for him to come back.
He was done in the end. Stopped caring about the results and the hotel times beat him.
Fair play and goodnight luck to him

Did you get a chance to ask him about his sacking from Coventry? There have been some terrible football decisions made a board level but to replace him with Peter Reid has to be one of the worst.

When we get our new ground, I think we should campaign to get one of his cabinets as our trophy cabinet, with his water mark on the side, so he will always form part of our furniture

Let's just hope that his business is focused on producing small cabinet orders.

We should keep Blackie in mind if Adi leaves any point. Brilliant coach and in my view the most unfair sacking in my time watching the club.

He turned down Mansfield’s contract offer. I imagine Notts County are paying him a very decent amount

Steven Pressley sacked by Carlisle after defeat in the Checkatrade last night. He seems a good developer of young players but a not so good manager

I didn’t realise Reice Charles Cook was at Macclesfield now. Crazy to think he was in goal and broke records for the longest time we went without conceding in our history but hasn’t played a single game in the league for them and only been used in the Checkatrade
He didn’t play in the league at Shrewsbury either and neither when he went to play in the Danish league

No it wasn't, one win in the league since September was the reason.
