... apart from poor sap Adrian Mutu who made the schoolboy error of testing positive for cocaine at a time when Chelsea were actively looking to reduce their wage bill. Can't think of a single other player off the top of my head.

Well? ???

Jimmy Bullard was, conveniently, sacked from Hull....I think.

Tevez seemed to come fairly close last year before City realised how much cash they'd be losing out on.

its pretty difficult to sack a player given the size of their contracts. i imagine Mutu was gross misconduct or something, i expect theres a "dont do drugs" clause along with paragliding , sking, UFC, motorsport (i recall pro players arent allowed to ride motorbikes). dont suppose it ever occured for a no biting policy to be included.

John Sitton was quite a colourful character! Blimey, is that even allowed on Wiki?

All right? And you can pair up if you like, and you can ****ing pick someone else to help you, and you can bring your ****ing dinner. 'Cos by the time I've finished with you, you'll ****ing need it"

:lol:

And if there was, Suarez would have had it removed, as he's partial to the odd nibble.

Ballotelli was "never going to play" for city again, then he did, then he was given the gooner.
