    Well the HR officer is a Woman.

    Well, yeah. After all, it is woman’s work, really.

    A lot of sense being spoken on this thread!!! :ohmy:

    This mob mentality towards people in football does not sit right with me.

    Yes they have a responsibilty as role models to the youth that look up to them but that doesnt mean once they have served their time, like in the case of Ched Evans, they should then be banned from going back to a job and contributing to society by paying tax.

    What is the point in sending someone to jail if not to rehabilitate them ? We may as well hang them once found guilty.

      It would be interesting to hear Boyce’s view on the appointment as club captain and as a representative of those who may feel marginalised by Mackay’s comments.

      No doubt anything he says will be vetted by the club but it would be interesting nonetheless. His silence would speak volumes.

      Well he re-tweeted the appointment and issued a letter through the club this week

      Funny isn’t it that the biggest howls of outrage about what he is alleged to have said are coming from those who believe invasion of private messages by journalists is horrendous. :unsure:

      He was in the wrong. Has apologised. A lot of people in football have done a lot worse. Not excusing him, but get over it.

        Fair enough but re-tweeting it without comment doesn’t say anything or make his views any clearer.

        Yep, I heard him last night.

        The Daily Mail of all rags. He’s the one who got my back up and made me think fck em this is the way we like it.

        Exactly. I was mulling over my position while driving home but Lawton’s superior attitude (ironic, I know ;)) clinched it for me. Four things spring to mind, for me:

        1) It isn’t Wigan/Whelan’s job to cure all football’s ills. Why should Wigan cut its nose off to spite its face?

        2) The FA could have suspended Mackay pending their enquiry, but they didn’t. He is therefore free to work in the game.

        3) Premier League boss, Richard Scudamore, has allegedly committed similar offences recently. Where is hid wirch hunt?

        4) I bet that plenty Championship and Premier League chairmen are thanki g Whelan for having the balls to do this as it will make it easier for them to appoint mackay in the future, should the need arise.[/quote]

        I read that Greg Dyke, at the time, declared that private texts/correspondence were of no business to the FA and that ended that. He has set a very dangerous/welcoming precedent with that ruling and the FA must take that into its consideration when dealing with Malkay

          Did you not read the letter? Boycey knew this shitestorm was coming and released that through the club the day before the appointment

            The day before the appointment was made being the important issue here.

            He doesn’t mention anything about Mackay being the new manager he is urging everyone to support.

              I’m with all of you on this, however just sit back and ask yourselves what your reaction would have been if McKay had taken the reigns at noblot? :dry:

              From Matlock to ManU
              What a journey!

              But he didn’t and there’s the difference.

              Isn’t there some saying about my aunt and my uncle? :unsure:

                That’s bad.

                Whilst none of us (well most :unsure: ) would never question the Chairman’s dedication to the club, I wish he’d just button it sometimes.

                Hiring Malky was always going to ruffle feathers; sod that, some of those feathers deserve to be ruffled.

                I’m not sure what DW’s comments about the MP or this latest interview bring to the club apart from trouble and sponsors pulling out/not signing up.

                Let’s shown them all yet again…get behind Malky and the boys…watch out Middlesbrough the new era has started :lol:

                #135806

                Harry redknapp reckons that whelan was right to appoint mckay & give him a 2nd chance. “I have a lot of time for malky. He is a good manager. Everyone deserves another chance – even murderers come out of jail & get a 2nd chance. Im not condoning what he has done, but he’s made a mistake, has paid for it, so its time for him to move on. Everyone at some point has made a mistake in their life”.

                  How deep does he think this whole he’s digging has to be before it’s time to stop?

                  Whelan is to PR as Hitler was to multiculturalism.
                  Somebody needs to tell him to shut the fuck up.

                  And people still don’t understand the way Whelan works.

                  At the end of the day is he bothered about what people say about him? No.

                  But is the furore about what Malky is alleged to have said becoming a big pressure point? Yes.

                  So what can the chairman do to ease the pressure? Maybe what he did when we had the McManaman/Newcastle affair? Say something that diverts pressure to himself.

                  Who can shrug it off.
