2021/22 Jean-Philippe Gbamin

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Crucify him as a warning to others.

 

[Mark barnett]

A guy as injury prone as he is should not be drink driving or even driving for that matter in fact I wouldn't let him ride a bike

 

[Dddddd]

His mate "Hey Jean, any chance of a lift home mate"

Gbamin "Bloody hell mate, it's 5 in the morning and we had a few earlier, just get your head down and I'll drop you of later or ring you an Uber"

Might have been a bird he was hoping to get in with

If it was more reason to get her to sleep over mate.

 

[MACCA75]

Should have used this as an excuse to cancel his contract IMO.

 

[MikeH72]

Spot on. Players get away with stuff if they’re playing well.

No chance would we be reading the same messages if this was Digne or DCL.

These two bolded things don’t add up.

Good players/playing well is what I meant.

Digne wouldn’t be hung out to dry like this.

 

[BlueToff]

I'm an Evertonian he is an Everton player. I'm not a Watford supporter so what Watford players do is of no interest to me. Everton FC will not rip up his contract which says more about society and it's attitude to millionaire Premier League footballers. And to reference your other post,drink driving and speeding are two separate offences under the law. With different sanctions neither of which hold any real deterrent to Premier League footballers.

Hang on, so because it was when he was at Watford, it's fine?

Good players/playing well?? At the moment I would settle for Gbamin playing at all - even badly !

 

[Librarian]

This is his watershed moment. Now it's either get and stay fit or move on. The goodwill has been used up.

Fool me once…

I mean to be fair theres a world of difference between drink driving and going a bit fast in a lambo.

A world.

Fool me once…

Ah the old saying ?

Fool Me once - Shame on you.

Fool Me twice - Stop shaming me, please.

No it is still dangerous and just as likely to kill some one.

Ask 10 people if they have ever broken the speed limit, 10 will say yes, ask 100 people if they have ever drunk driven, 1 will say yes.

Im just saying, we all speed, not many drink drive, so im sure speeding kills more people, cos its quite widespread.

I have no point to make, both are bad yes, but drink driving is defo more frowned upon.

There isn't though.

Doucoure was clocked going 102mph in north London.

Gbamin was over the limit at 5am in Cheshire.

They're both idiots for doing it and both could have caused serious harm. Fortunately they didn't.

We might all speed - as in, go 5-10mph over the limit in certain areas. Not many people go 50+ mph over the limit and there excuse being it's a French car so they were confused by the speed limit (even though it was 160+ kmph).

I think what Gbamin did was ridiculous and he's been punished fairly so. But the idea we'd rip up his contract - or should do - because of it is based entirely on people being angry about his injury record.
