Wycombe RoyalZana Badawi Thats revisionism at its best. Guthrie had plenty of chances for a guy who refused to play for the team. And just how do you manage a footballer who refuses to play football but still collects his wages? Guthrie made his bed - 'played out of position' is a feeble excuse - he had to lie in it. And if that means McDermott not playing him, so be it. What exactly do you expect if you dont turn up for work one day?
He didn't refuse to play, he refused to travel up to Sunderland to sit on the bench. .
Oh thats OK then.
