Just sack him, his contract will be nearly finished when he comes out anyway! We don`t need or want that sort of person at the club.

I say sack him, kicking a defenseless person in the head ... inexcusable -- lucky he wasnt up for Manslaughter, these students were outnumbered -- why did his brother even become involved? Because of events happening at home .. even worse ! Alcohol and a temper issue not a great mix

Also - would sacking Deeney diminish the club's value by circa £400k? Another reason to keep him on the books for another week or so?
