CKR is just misunderstood. He is a teetotal angel, unfairly treated by many team mates and clubs.

Asked if he was getting frustrated at the game, Kazim-Richards said: "I was having a good game and we were winning so don't know how it would bother me. "
Not if I remember rightly.
Break for lunch then verdict this afternoon.

If it's a serious question, it goes into a general fund that is split to help various 'victim' groups.

Well the book was well and truly thrown at him. What sort of a detterent is a fine of £750 to someone who earns thousands per week.
Not a good advertisment for the kick it out campaings either.
