I know he was a bit naughty, but I'm not sure sending Garry O'Connor to play for Tomsk is a fitting punishment! At least with all the uranium and plutonium mining in the area they won't need to worry about floodlights...
tomsk is without a shadow of a doubt the most dire place I have been to in the whole of Russia. Imagine 1980s Rotherham but huge and very very cold. If he left Lokomotiv because his wife did not like Moscow, I reckon a month in Tomsk and a divorce will be on the cards.
plus there is enough snow there to keep him occupied for a while. ahem! I mean skiing, boarding and things....
