Wow, what a shitshow.

As I said in the GF thread.
It's pathetic from Matto. The more I think about it the more angry I get.
4k from a 650k a year contract is chump change and selfish.
He now misses 3 games. 1/8 of the season.
He must have made this decision pissed drunk after the GF.
Surely the club and BA should have said to him you sure you want to miss 3 games.
They can cover the fine in other ways.
There is nothing stopping them from paying him back on the side. The club made a motza last week in merchandise.
