There are only a few scenarios where a player would effectively be sacked. Either the player has committed a crime that is likely to deprive him of his liberty (ie. jail sentence), OR he has done something that would prevent him playing football.
So a car accident sounds a possible candidate, if he was maybe drunk, under the influence of drugs, hit someone, left the scene. Or even all of those things. But surely we'd have heard about it before now?
The second one is failing a drug test. If he gets a ban from football, that means he can't fulfil his contract, so he's effectively sacked himself. That sounds more likely to me.
Just to reiterate - I don't know anything, I'm just guessing, like everyone else.
Hadn't realised this had happened before. Sorry if posted previously.

Laing was a decent free transfer signing by Neil Warnock .
This is a very sad and strange situation. Whatever has happened, thoughts must also go out to NML. However stupid he may have been I am sure he now regrets it tenfold....there is always the human aspect, especially when his partner gave birth last June/July. I am sure that most of us have done something(s) in our life and then then said 'what the ****' did I do that for.
I know he blew hot and cold as a player, but he was generally whole hearted and I am saddened by this. Maybe that NW at Boro will put an arm around him and give him another chance....maybe a third after the Peterborough situation.
Cannot think of any other situation at City when this ha happened....even in the days of 'fingers' Farrell...whom I was a great fan of.
Do the ITK lot on here know how many pints he drank and who he got his 3 for a oner off?
**** sake :/
There are so many things it could be that it is almost pointless speculating. (Yeah, I know it's fun!) I think we would all assume it has to be 1: something very serious, 2: Not directly football related 3. Not something a club could morally defend it's player for (Like a man trying to defend his sis who he thinks has been drugged) and 4: probably illegal.
within that there are so many things, drug related, non-drug criminal, sexual, terrorist, and lots of other things that people could fancifully think up.
But it will be out here soon. It is too juicy for it to stay covered up for long, the who UK football family is looking and asking.
Are we sure that was his car in the accident ?
Probably just pissed up and did a runner to avoid being breathalysed, reported it stolen then lost his bottle or got caught out.
It happens. If that's all it is ( and I anticipate some sanctimonious rebukes for that) , then I think we're daft to let him go.
I should think Sir Neil has probably been on the telephone to sign him up for Middlesborough.
