Real issue here to me is the lack of transparency with the punishment for Carney.

The club once again have basically closed ranks and refused to publicly announce the punishment he got if any.

Maybe precisely the reason no one has confidence in those running the club when they fail to publicly address the unprofessional behaviour of a bloke they employ to represent the club.

Contrast that with a well run club who would most likely make an example of the punishment public so as to reinforce the values they stand for and send a clear message to the rest of their squad staff about the standards required and repercussions for misbehaving

Lets not even touch on the fact that the player and CEO were former teammates and the whole matter could have even been swept under the rug
