I don't know whether it's just that some posters on this thread are as thick as pig$hit and just don't understand, or whether they're simply unwilling to accept that being ordered to play football is fine, but not if the 'pitch' has already been reported as being dangerously hazardous.

And that playing football should be considered as low a risk-free event as possible - nothing remotely the same as soldiering in a hostile environment.

I don't know why there has been such unpleasantness on this thread - £2400 for a life damaged by an entirely avoidable sports injury is certainly worth contesting.
