Sheffield Wednesday manager Paul Sturrock has explained his decision to serve notice of the termination of Adam Proudlock's contract, which was due to run until the end of this season.
The Owls boss said the decision had been taken after "several breaches" of the club's internal disciplinary code and added that a firm approach had to be taken for the benefit of the club and the rest of the players in the squad.
Sturrock explained: "It's disappointing for everyone involved but there was a stand that needed to be made. We have rules and regulations which he has breached."
The Scot admitted to being sad at having to take the decision but said his expectation was that both Proudlock and Sheffield Wednesday would be the long-term beneficiaries:
"He has qualities and I'm sure he's going to come back and bite me on the bum," said the boss. "But discipline is a vital part of the football club, I have proved that today. I'm disappointed I've had to do it and I don't like doing it. But we have another 25 players who are under the same disciplinary codes and it was important for them. There's not really any more to be said."

Proudlock will be okay. Wednesday's new manger will re-instate him. He'll have to wait a month or two though.

He's crap anyway. He played for Wolves in that game where we murdered them at Withdean, he looked far more concerned about his hair than trying to play football ...
Sounds like your standard footballer, to much money to young and thinks he can behave how he wants ...
Quite obviously a tosser ...

Proudlock was going out with an absolute stunner, she was one of the 'Embassy girls' at the Crucible every year. Funnily enough, the one that usually got in front of the camera.

I'm sure we'll hear more. And I can't wait for that whining tosser Gordon Taylor to get involved, although he won't criticise any of his overpaid, prima donna members until they actually murder someone.

Up to a point, it's true. But it is a bit 'Wolf Wolf' with Taylor. You can't take him seriously when he is genuinely representing the interests of a wronged member - because of all the times he's backed rogue elements regardless of their guilt and often in the face of proven appalling behaviour.
I agree he backs stupid things but he has to

I'm sure I heard that the PFA have said they will not contest the decision.
Christ what HAS he done, for Taylor not to be screaming from the rooftops about his poor little hard done-by footballers. I suppose that's what happens when you play outside the Premiershite.

Yep I heard that to. Seems that he has stepped so far over the line that even the PFA wont help him.

The Wednesday message boards are not exactly backing the lad. 'Good riddance to the fat bastard' seems to be the shout.
Alleged crimes include turning up late for pre-season, missing appointments with the physio, eating too many pies, drinking far too much pop, turning up pissed for a match, rumours of illicit substances and generally being a total loser who's pissed a promising career up the wall.
