Daryl Murphy

[Strummer]

“Murphy, who is now at Bolton Wanderers and had spells earlier in his career at Luton Town and Waterford United, as well as a loan period at Sheffield Wednesday, was caught last season by what the FA describes as “one of the most comprehensive national anti-doping programmes across world sport.”

He was a Forest player at the time, with Aitor Karanka as his manager, and did not play for the club from October 6 until December 8. He was subsequently moved out of their first-team plans at the start of the current season and joined Bolton as a free agent, scoring five goals in his first ten appearances for the club currently at the bottom of League One.

Murphy’s career also involved 32 appearances for Ireland over a ten-year period before announcing his retirement from international football in January 2018, with the then manager, Martin O’Neill, paying tribute to a player who was “always very professional.”

Well he certainly wasn't taking speed.

I thought he’d been put out to grass.

I remember wondering where Murphy was at the time- he disappeared off the end off the Earth this time last year and now we know why.


Also explains the Ansarifard signing I suppose.

 

[Abdooonk]

Presumably Forest could have used it as a reason to dismiss him. It was clear at that stage we'd had the best out of him.

Took cocaine and served a ban under us for doing so by his own admission. The club kept that well under wraps.

Pretty unlucky to get caught out of competition considering most footballers are bang on the gear all the time

Thinking back, as drug bans are always kept confidential (unless in this case the player divulges it) when he was presumably banned was there an official line as to why? Or did he just not get selected?

He got off lightly considering Dan Evans got a year off the ATP - enough to make him drop out of the rankings.

From what he said it was recreational so I imagine it wasn't an official line he took.

Yeah and when Dan Evans hits that lovely single handed backhand down the line... old joke lol

BHAHAHAH LAD

 

[valspoodle]

And there was I prepared to cut him slack because I thought he had problems at home and he was just being another stupid thoughtless overpaid footballer.

According to Frank:-

Taking cocaine can make you feel:

happy
excited
wide awake
confident
on top of your game

Murph must have got a dud batch.

Same. I always had him down as an honest pro who got some unjust stick, but this changes my opinion completely. What an absolute moron, he's very lucky not to have gotten sacked by us (surely something like this would have been grounds for terminating his contract?).

Having said that, he'd still be a better option than Mir, coked up or not!

Makes you wonder how many other players have been out 'injured' rather than injured.

He wa tekkin baking powder

 

[BryanRoy]

Signed for Waterford.

 

[Strummer]

A good chance for him, let’s hope he doesn’t „Blow“ it again!

 

[MASE]

I would imagine Waterfords expectations are crystal clear.

 

[Barry]

Waterford? They've got quite a line up this year. Who nose how far they can go?
