RumRed Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Well if what I'm surmising from this thread's correct (I have no knowledge at all on this topic) I'm even more surprised that our coaching set up is yet to be changed.

Everybody has driven friends' cars, or let friends drive their cars, and you don't go asking them for their insurance documents.

Bobfish Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 This raises concerns. One person who obviously knew Tammy (allegedly) couldn’t drive is Tammy. Anyone who thinks LJ knew Tammy wasn’t (allegedly) allowed to drive and then advised him to drive is moronic. After all the hoops LJ and MA jumped through to get Tammy they would no doubt have loved to show Chelsea they were caring for their player by getting him a chauffer, Scotty to taxi him, or even lift share, a perfect opportunity to help the player integrate. Christ, a bloody bus ticket. They want to be in Chelsea’s golden folder of clubs to loan talent to. And after Luke A was (allegedly) eased out of the club for (allegedly) being present at pissgate, to then suggest the club actively advised Tammy to drive when he was (allegedly) disqualified, is, again, beyond moronic, even for this forum. The real question is did Chelsea know? You would assume that if they did they would have mentioned it, “by the way, cars are bad,” especially as they keep detailed dossiers on all their loans. Regular updates. Don’t forget, this is a business to them and the players are assets. Look what happened with that player at the gas who they thought wasn’t getting enough games? They took him back, asap. So the real question is has Tammy (allegedly) been less than truthful to his parent club…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 7 hours ago, oldrosie said: I saw an interview a few weeks ago. Most footballers have no idea about insurance, tax bills, invoices, etc because their agents do it all for them. Evidently Gazza hadn't had to pay a bill in his life. Rather sad but that is how things are ... I think Gazza was rather exceptional. I heard Terry Venables recounting how Gazza used to phone him up saying that his heating / water wasn't working and he didn't know what to do. Terry wasn't saying that this was a standard thing for players; quite the reverse. Mario Balotelli struck me as being similar. 6 hours ago, Leveller said: If you let people drive your car without knowing if they're insured, you're a nut job.

I'm sure clubs do due diligence and conduct detailed background checks on players, personally would just be surprised if this included details about their driving status (unless they had a driving conviction for example) - happy to be proved wrong though!

Davefevs Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 The bit that worries me is that he's allegedly been driving throughout his ban and this was not a one-off. this is actually pretty serious.. Another question for sone of you more informed ones. Are the cars theirs, or are they pool / company cars, where insurance cover is under a club scheme? I'm sure some p,suers gave their own, but I once saw Korey rock up in a little runaround, not a footballers car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
