Tomo 21,751 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Another fine mess! Arsenal hit by security lapse as Wenger's rules are leakedBy SAMI MOKBELPUBLISHED: 22:30, 21 January 2013 | UPDATED: 22:30, 21 January 2013Comments (1)Share Arsenal will not review their security procedures despite the club's internal fines system being plastered over the internet. A document, printed on Arsenal headed paper, detailing a list of rules for Arsene Wenger's players and the cash penalty for breaking those specific laws has gone viral on the internet after a fan, who is understood to be an acquaintance of the Gunners' doctor Gary O'Driscoll, took a photo of the fines sheet during a tour of the training ground before posting it on a file-sharing website. The supporter believed only his friends and himself would be privy to the picture. O'Driscoll and the supporter are said to be distraught the document has circulated so rapidly. Where's my money? Arsene Wenger's players have strict rules to abide by at Arsenal's training ground You haven't paid! Per Mertesacker has been charged with getting the fines from his team-matesArsenal are understandably disappointed the file has been made public but feel the situation is merely a result of unforeseen circumstances and will not open an internal review of their security measures. The fines included are £1,000 for players not turning up for matches they are not involved in, £500 for arriving late for travel or training, £250 for not turning up on time to a team meeting or meal and £100 for taking a newspaper, laptop or phone into the medical area or dressing room. The Gunners boss even lays down the law over the clothing worn by his players, with £100 docked for items deemed inappropriate. Here is the full list, by order of a 'Mr A. Wenger'.OFFENCEFINENon attendance of unused players at Home matches without permission of manager£1000Late for training< 15 mins £250, > 15 mins £500Late for treatment/massage< 15 mins £250, > 15 mins £500Late for travel£500Late for match day meetings / meals£250Wrong kit on match days£100Inappropriate clothing outside of the dressing room£100Outdoor shoes in the dressing room£100Newspapers, laptops and phones in the medical room£100Newspapers in dressing room£100Non production of urine sample for two consecutive weeks£200Phone calls in the building (texting allowed)£500No participating in commercial activities (including Club Day)£500German defender Per Mertesacker is Wenger's debt collector, responsible for rounding up the cash among his team-mates, with fines doubled if they are not settled in seven days. Meanwhile, Theo Walcott has revealed that his long-running contract saga put his family through turmoil. The England star ended speculation over his future last week by penning a new three-and-a-half-year deal worth £90,000 per week. But it looked for a time that Walcott was on his way out of the Emirates Stadium as talks hit the skids. And the 23-year-old has revealed the uncertainty over his future took its toll. Behind the scenes: A fan was given a tour of the training complex, apparently by the club doctor He said: 'It hasn't always shown on and off the pitch but deep down it has been tough, not just for me but for my family, my partner. They were all getting hit with it every day. I'm so pleased it's over. 'I can deal with the speculation but it's my family and friends who thought I might not be able to cope. But I've dealt with it and I think that shows I've matured as a man.'Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2266094/Arsenal-wont-review-security-Arsene-Wengers-fine-list-leaked.html#ixzz2IfCWK1xl Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook :lol: :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 What's anything around 500£ for players earning more then 30k per week? I imagine for a guy like me (a lazy git) I'd be getting three or four of those fines a day. I'd be on 30k but in reality it would all be fined down to about 2k...

bushman 2,043 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 The point is not how much is the fine, certainly the players can afford to pay but Wenger treats them like small children.The longer Wenger stays at Arsenal, the better for other teams.Wenger loves to shop at second hand stores for footballers, Giroud, is one example.The way things are being dealt with at Arsenal by Wenger the oaf are laughable.

You notice when you live there that there are no fat people.Arsene Wenger Live, Fish, FatSome are wrong because they are not strong enough to fight temptation and some some are wrong because they do not know.Arsene Wenger Strong, Fight, EnoughAs a coach you can influence the diet of your players. You can point out what is wrong.Arsene WengerRead more at http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/a/arsene_wenger.html#yCTTillqY34chpcA.99What can one say here ?The days of Arsenal being the club where young players wanted to play for are long gone.These days, Wenger is seen shopping for footballers at discount stores.Out with the old, in with the young is needed at Arsenal.
