The reality check is that when you haven't got much money to spend you are doubly careful how you spend it.

fully agree

It seems that even the most basic checks weren't done. Someone needs to be held accountable for this. Is this the manager signing his friends without making the necessary checks? His silence is interesting

Also what we doing handing out contracts to players before we even seen them play a game, particularly when they only played a couple of games in the last few years. Bowerman was Trailist A for most of pre-season, so why wasn't Griffiths Trailist B ?

And why the hell was he brought on against Tranmere to give a goal away? We knew he wasn't up to it by then

Serious questions need to be asked here

"Having just left playing professional football in league 2 due to injury"

Even just googling him might have thrown up this rather revealing fact!

im afraid that is correct yes the man is a T**t but we have been extremely naive

You should of asked your serious questions  on Tuesday night Jamie, when the chairman came over and took the time to Explain what the situation was?

[GB Alty]

I fully understand what the situation is, and the chairman has explained everything he can.

That doesn't however mean it's acceptable situation.

Look who started for Droylsden FC today:

Look who started for Droylsden FC today:

Well, it's worth the club taking that one further!

[bighairedmike]

Well the Anthony Griffith who started today certainly hasn't been included on any of the team sheets previously this season... Could it be our friend by any chance, or just a massive coincidence??

[Timperley The Best]

Same bloke ?If so won't he have to forefit his pay off?

[eightiesrobin]

See the main site - it appears to be the Anthony Griffith.

A bit more mileage in this story I reckon.

[brian1925]

Given the number of players who have turned out for Droylsden in the last couple of seasons, I suppose there was always a high probability of someone called Anthony Griffith turning out for them!
Seriously though, if this is true, that is despicable. Did he play the full 90 minutes with his degenerative condition? If so, can we all have the name of his doctor?

[ripleym]

If it is being reported as a move from Altrincham by Evostik, then I hope he gets what is coming to him and we have some funding available for a replacement.

[JTH]

I've heard of players giving up the full time game on medical advice and then moving into semi-pro. Presumably as their insurers wouldn't cover them if they continued as full-time even if a club would have them. Assuming he was paid more than his expenses for playing yesterday this is totally different. He does have a brass neck however and maybe he's daring us to take him to Court? Either way more than a tad embarrassing for the PFA, if they take no action (like paying us what we paid Griffiths and recovering it from him) their rep will be mud in our division.

[markecky]

Why doesn't he sneak in the CSH and nick the cones they use for the kids football as well?   

God I wish I was loaded, I'd be giving the club a blank cheque to take this shyster to court.  He has no shame.

[hsmith1]

this is a disgrace,if he is fit enough to turn out for another team then he should have to return his payout.Disgusted

This T**t was probably born under the same stone as Frank Sinclair and a suitable description for this "Oxygen thief" should be "He is a Melt"
