If you owned a football club, and the woman who dressed up as your mascot posed in saucy underwear – for charity – in a national Sunday newspaper (okay, the Sport), what would you do?
Yes, that’s it, you’d sack her, so that it got lots more media attention than you want.
Just to heap on the embarassment to the club, the charity being rewarded for Tracy Chandler’s hard work is the NSPCC, the same charity that Doncaster Rovers have been supporting recently with many other fundraising events.
So we’ve reprinted the photograph here. It’s not x-rated by any means.
How was the poor dog sacked? No, not sent to the vets, but told not to bother turning up again by email. No right of reply, just a simple sacking.
What nice people they must be at Doncaster Rovers!
Update
Pleased to say that enough people caused a furore that Tracy has her job back!
