I have gone above and beyond for Alfredo. I have continued to protect him, support him and love him as a player and the person he is but I have to draw the line under it now and he will be punished internally.I will recommend to the board that he is fined a weeks wages and will also recommend that that fine should go to the supporters who came today because they are the ones who will suffer from his lack of discipline, also his team-mates as well.The money is no use to his team-mates it is more use to the supporters, thats what I will recommend and we will see what happens from there.
