Excuse my ignorance but...   
I heard Ian Wright on talkSPORT the other day talking about his time at CP 
during the Barnes debacle. He made reference to a match where a player "lost 
it at half time and refused to go back on for the second half". he said that 
the guy is playing in England still.

Who was he talking about? I presume there is another side to the story?
