The contract allows for him to be paid whilst banned from playing? Not even a discretionary withdrawal of pay? - or discretion to continue paying if banned because a player had put taken one for the team?TGR said:They won't because they can't unfortunately. Footballers contracts are 100% watertight. He will get paid also!

He's disgraced every club who ever gave him the honour of playing for! I hope Hughes hits him with EVERYTHING he can!

Pretty sure that's a water tight case for gross misconduct.
yeah... just like Tevez eh? I tell you 100% watertight!

Why would the club sack Tevez when he still had value on the pitch, as we saw in the remaining games, and transfer value.
Are you really trying to compare the two? Just man up, say you got it wrong and stop clutching at straws.

Typical Barton. I heard him on the radio once whingingly defending his indefensible behaviour. He hasn't changed. Plonker deserves to be back in gaol.Barton initially refused to leave the field and took to Twitter to defend his actions before apologising to QPR fans.
In the immediate aftermath of the game, Barton tweeted: "People are forgetting Tevez started the fracas by throwing a punch to the head.
"Can do nothing but apologise to the players and the fans. Still don't think its a sending off."
The following day he tweeted: "Right, enough about yesterday, I apologise to everyone offended by it.
"If that's not enough for some, so be it. Life is too short."
He added: "Things happen on the pitch, in the heat of battle sometimes. Not how we always plan them to happen."

But that is a case for the police - I think that the FA did as they could without setting a precedent that would be a rod in their back later.
Now the police on the other hand could have got involved for the kicking of Kun because effectively he is was no longer part of play. But I think there would have had to be a compliant made by someone (not sure about this statement)
