2 world wars, 1 world cup I for one still don't care what he does outside the club.
I think maybe its you that doesn't understand. What he does off the field is very relevant. It just is. Hence, this was a story and the NOTW published it. Cos they know people do care and will read it. If it wasn't relevant, people wouldn't be asking Murty about it.
If you don't care, thats fine. Although, you must care to some degree because you are posting about it. So must others because this thread is 15 pages long.
You're saying if this was John Terry, you wouldn't care, it would be private, and you wouldn't have an interest or an opinion?
You're saying if Lita gets into yet another nightclub altercation in Bristol tomorrow night, its not relevant because its off the field and outside the club?
Well, I got news for you. Leroy Lita represents this club both on the field and off it. Go ask the management.
And we're not just talking about an isolated incident, but rather a pattern of behavior, a series of events.
Mothers, daughters, etc, will read this and be troubled by it. You must know that. Its just not good form. It creates bad PR for the club. Maybe you or I don't think it should be that way, but its not about how we would want things to be, its about how they actually are.
The media scrutiny on the likes of Lita, Freddy Flintoff or John Terrry might not be how you think things should be, but thats the way it is, and most likely always will be. I didn't make up the rules, its just the way it is and players know that going in, so to speak
