This guy must take us all for idiots!

This morning on radio 4, Jim Naughtie was interviewing the very nice chap who was caught playing squash when he was on sick leave with an ankle injury when he should really have been driving an underground train. Subsequently the drivers balloted to come out on strike after he was dismissed from duty.

He really showed his intelligence when, having won his tribunal yesterday, as I understand it on no more than a technicality, had the cheek to say he'd been vindicated by the court.

He made a statement to the effect that he was testing out his ankle on the squash court as to whether he should return to work.

Am I missing something here or is this simply ludicrous? Would you be safe in the knowledge that this guy was in charge of your train?
