Too busy settling his lawyer's fees to think about anything else I suspect. It is ironic (think I am using this in the right context but if not the irony police will be after me) that Elvis has a song called I WILL BE RELEASED https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Shall_Be_Released Perhaps the impersonator could sing that for him.

He should have been sent to prison for that IMO, but hey, this is the country where you can have 483 convictions and still not serve any time.

No it isn't.

Blackburn would have to subsidise his wages and/or he would have to take a significant paycut.

Pretty self-evident, I would have thought. Stop nit-picking just because it's TOWK.

Loan moves don't have to be subsidised, its not a law. We aren't party to the inner workings or the financial might of Jagiellonia Bialystok, they might be able to afford a team of Stokes.

Stokes too expensive for Bialystok according to their manager.

'Footballer Anthony Stokes fined €230k for headbutting Elvis impersonator at Buck Whaleys': http://www.thejournal.ie/anthony-sto...43814-Feb2017/

A jury at the High Court, after deliberating for just over 90 minutes, unanimously found that the 28-year-old Blackburn Rovers footballer had assaulted 53-year-old Anthony Bradley.

The jury found that Bradley was entitled to general damages, aggravated damages, and damages to cover the cost of medical expenses already paid for by Bradley totalling €230,000 for the injuries he sustained.

Stokes must also pay Bradley’s legal costs.

Bradley sued Stokes seeking damages after he was headbutted by the player in the VIP Lounge at Buck Whaleys Nightclub, in Dublin’s Leeson Street on the early hours of 8 June 2013.
