Good luck to the guy. Being petty and over zelous regarding this does no one any credit. A man has ben deprived of his livelihood whilst accepting a deserved punishment. No whinging or whining from him in the press - just got on with doing his time. His time is nearly up and Im all for giving the guy a clean slate and wishing him luck. I dont know how the wording of the ban was framed but I see no problem with him coming back to training unless it breaches these terms and that all players in similar positions receive the same treatment.

give him a break and goo luck to him in all but his games against WTRLFC

Did not think you were mate.

"He's a level one/level two learner – that's a learner who really struggles with numeracy and literacy and has no confidence whatsoever in his reading or writing ability," says Lee Robinson, a former army sergeant who has been Hock's mentor for the past 15 months.

Very interesting and enlightening article.
Certainly makes you think.

after reading that it sounds like he realises what he has missed out on and with Terry's passing knows that he has been very lucky to be given a second chance.

good luck to him when he's served his ban, hope he can get back to his best again

Agree, everyone deserves another chance.

Hope he does well 2nd time around.
