Assuming the discussed, hypothetical scenario - I'd imagine those would be exactly the type of questions that the QPR legal team would be asking!

I would also question the providers that done his medical as nowadays they should not only be checking someones physical wellbeing but also mental. There is only so much a club can do in such a case to support a player. I would like to think the club have sat down with him (as they would do in any other work environment) to ascertain exactly what the problem is and the cause and then a plan of action (support him or put in a position to get him out) can be devised

Bloke is a liability im not bothered if he never resurfaces.

This. Get rid.

Sod that. I'd be asking why the hell he insists on pulling his shorts up every few seconds.

Maybe he saw the photos of the kit in the mid 80's and decided he wanted to be the black Johnny Byrne!

Absolutely. Mike Rigg and his fabled "database" would also have a lot to answer for too...... if it already hasn't........

Very interesting that Hughes has not been back to QPR to pick up any of his old players which says it all really. Hes known elsewhere for picking up his old players

Well he went back to Fulham for Zamora, then Johnson; Man City for Onuoha and Blackburn for Hoilett.

And he's come back to QPR for...?

[ollyhoops]

Funny I thought the same thing, hughes never rushed back to buy anyone from us did he?

[bushcelt1]

If he does have a recognised disability all we need to do to consider reasonable adjustments to support him (cant think of what can be offered to a pro footballer suppose depends on his condition) if it is determined that there is noting which we can do to aid him and he remains unfit for work then its a capability (regular and effective service) issue which would allow to dismiss.

How long is left on his contract???

knew a postman a few years back and he was diganosed with schizophrenia but the royal mail could never dismiss them.

We're not a big team with players we want to sell. Won't interest Hughes & his big name but no bottle signings

[QPR Richard]

Well one thing is certain, Hughes bought quality for QPR.

Poor quality!!!!!

Got to play long game with cases like that but tick the boxes and there gone. With schizophrenia individuals often stop taking meds that control condition and therefore if they do that there contributing to condition/ailment which is an own goal when it comes to continued employment. Horrible condition to suffer from but can get shot if you want.
