Wayne Brown rumour

Re: Kermorgant

From Foxes Talk

Cracking that there was a Pro Brown group.....I do hope that means they were supporting freedom of expression and not actually agreeing with the ****

How true is this? The likes of Beuamont seem very much in the know and if its just a rumour put out by FT or wiki, its a pretty sick one.

More worrying if it's the latter who was in it imo.

Makes you wonder what other team changes were forced onto NP for Sunday's match.......

A pretty good source has told a pretty good source of mine that it is true....I'm believing it

Well the rumours started this morning on the net.

Although in my defence I only knew that it was a dressing room bust up this morning. And cos I don't really have any interent access I couldn't find out much apart from who was involved.

Obviously the stories have got more accurate this afternoon and into the evening.

It's more annoying this happened right before such a huge match.
FFS.

Unbelievable really. And it manifested itself out pretty well when Bruce and Weale had a communication issue on the penalty.

Re: Kermorgant

Can we expect to hear anything official on the Brown situation?

Re: Kermorgant

The whole thing is very complocated. You cannot sack anyone for voting BNP since with a secret ballot you cannot prove how anyone voted. There are certain jobs where membership of the BNP may be sackable.
A bustup could only come if someone stated publicly that they voted BNP. I would guess it is impossible to sack someone for this since the BNP is a legal political party and in the eyes of the law no different to Labour or Conservative.
The problem would come when a BNP voter had publicly announced his vote and been challenged on it. That would be the time when words could be said which might be construed as racial harassment and which might make it difficult for some members of the squad to work with him.
In fairness to Brown it does need to be said that at the moment there is nothing concrete and the rumour may well be a total fabrication.

I'm quite sure there is a lot more to it than him merely saying he voted for the BNP.

If it's true that he's been sacked I hope the club have gone through the proper disciplinary process, so we don't end up with the situation we had with that little shit w***.

If that has happened there may still be the opportunity for Brown to appeal, and he could get the PFA involved. Which would be ironic, with Chris Powell being the PFA chairman (presumably that's due to end soon?).


When we do hear something from the club I'm sure we won't get the details, just something about "breach of club rules".

Chris Powell being the PFA chairman

The worlds gone mad, a blackie being a chairman, not in my day mutter mutter mutter....

Re: Kermorgant

Or it will all be done on the quiet and he'll just be gone and at another club before you know it......

Re: Kermorgant

Thing is this is pretty much all over the internet now-club is going to have to respond to it sooner or later, especially if any media outlets get involved

Re: Kermorgant

Hang on, I mean whilst it isn't my choice, we live in a democracy - he can vote BNP if he wishes surely? Why would the club ban him for that?? Makes no sense at all. Something else has happened here.

Re: Kermorgant

They probably know all about it, depends on what they can make public or not innit?

I suspect it's the aftermath and words said which are the issue.

So, during a "chat" he says : "I voted for the BNP" and following this an incident occurred?

Perhaps some people felt that a vote for the BNP meant Wayne Brown was a racist. To me it doesn't. Unless of course he compounded his vote by saying something racist? That is the most likely I guess, should any of this be true at all.

That's the way I read into it.

The rumours are about the altercation with Dyer and possibly others afterwards, not just for voting BNP.

Which is just unthinkable. If he did do that, I absolutely despise the man. If he voted the BNP, I think nothing of it. If you vote Labour doesn't make you keen on going to war necessarily.
