selling a player as soon as possible when you know that they will very soon be in trouble over drug abuse?

Surely there must be some sort of law/regulation in place, or have Newcastle got away with it?

As far as i know there no news about it yet.

Allegedly NOTW have photos of a player doing cocaine who was then promptly sold to a foreign club.

Thought you were about to infer Johnathan Woodgate, however they really can't substantiate it if he passed the 2 rigorous medical's Real Madrid often force their players through correct?
