They won't be. Premier League rules require clubs to have a doctor in attendance at all times.

I suppose the fact she still gets paid the same may well be the reason she is not suing. That is the problem players are so good at making a meal out of every challenge it's impossible to know when they need medical attention and when they are feigning. Mourinho being more a dab hand at the black arts knew it was nothing. The doctor on the other hand was naive enough to fall for Hazards antics. Even Mourinho can't avoid kismet.

the ref obviously thought it was serious as he was the one who waved her on

So maybe the ref fell for it as well. If that was the case no way could she refuse to look at him. Mourinho must have gone mad. The fact that Mourinho has got his wishes seems To indicate there is something we are not privy to.

Not true. It was the physiotherapist who ran on first, after twice being waved on by the referee. The doctor merely followed the physio.

Post above yours discussed that with Hanaahspet.

Find it funny on firday he was praising her and her staff and one loss he has her banned

Did not lose it was a 2-2 draw, even if it felt like a loss to Mourinho.

The Premier League Doctors Association, which has never before made a public statement in 19 years of existence, has vehemently accusing Chelsea of being "unjust in the extreme" in their treatment of Eva Carneiro. Another body, the Football Medical Association, also issued a statement supporting the actions Chelsea's medical staff in running on to treat Eden Hazard, and even the General Medical Council have weighed in with a statement saying that they were doing their jobs properly and acted in accordance with their codes of professional conduct. It all makes Mourinho's press conference tomorrow a potentially interesting one. Will he offer any answers to his treatment of staff which according to all these professional bodies seems to be out of all reason?

^^^ The Telegraph is also reporting that Fifa (in the form of their chief medical officer) have joined the list opposing Mourinho's actions :

Admittedly, if you actually read the article, they do dress up what is actually being said to make it all sound rather more dramatic, but the guy is clearly saying that the staff acted correctly.

I think when the doctor said 'josie I'm a bad girl and I must be punished' he genuinely misunderstood the women.

I stand by my previous statement in regard to being more to it than meets the eye. Apparently he has always had reservations about her and it seems to have come to a head. She was just doing her job and if Jose should chastise anyone it should be Hazard for making such a meal of the challenge when the team were desperately looking for a winner. The referee and the medical staff did exactly what they were supposed to do.

Apparently it's the fact that she went on Facebook to thank her public that made Josie from being mildly irritated to seriously pissed off. He saw that as a brake in the ranks. He believes that employees should keep in the background. Even some of her fellow doctors seem to agree with Josie in that regard even if they think he is wrong in his verdict of her treating Hazard.
