He was concussed remember, wouldn't have known what he was doing.

If he was concused he wouldn't have been able to whallop someone that hard.

Or be allowed to stay on the pitch, unless the Hull medical staff are negligent which would then mean the club would be in bigger trouble for providing sub-standard medical staff.

What if he lied to them, you know what a soldier he is, he would have wanted to see the game out.

Don't recall your man staying on the ground, was there even contact at all?

If you have a suspision a player has a concussion - which for a trained medical profession would be easy to spot you have to perform a test to diagnose it first, if it then turns out they have a concussion they cannot go back on, and if they don't they can.

If the medical team failed to perform this test then they fall foul of negligence and putting a player in further danger.

I think they would have had to done a mental capacity test if they suspect he was lying, if he fails that they can act in his best interests.
