I've always thought him to be a raging c**t but I have no issue with him getting work again some time in the future. However, in the immediate term he should have kept his mouth shut and the issues of what he said should have been addressed. He's definitely a c**t. He was purposely playing abroad so that he did not have to pay child maintenance. That's why he had a very short term deal with Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise about the child maintenance but remember he disappeared to China (I think?) straight after us and was quite open that he was chasing money, not that I had a particular issue with that. He just comes across a right horrible person in any interview/Sportsound appearance I've heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I have never heard anyone refer to any children that they have, regardless of where they were born, as “foreign”. Why was that interview broadcast? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Why was he given the platform of the national broadcaster to apologise anyway? Stinks of his representative calling in a favour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 4 minutes ago, Mr Positive, sometimes. said: Why was he given the platform of the national broadcaster to apologise anyway? Stinks of his representative calling in a favour. This is the main issue I have with the interview. For me there is absolutely no good reason he should be given a platform. I've said it in the Motherwell thread but I have to laugh at his statement saying he would be "taking some time to reflect". Some time clearly being a couple of hours before getting his rep to pull in a favour at the BBC. Off the back of this Sportsound had a couple of options. They could have had Marvin Bartley on the show discussing his experience of dealing with racism in football using this as further evidence to show that taking a knee or a social media boycott is pissing in the wind. But instead they give the man who has been sacked for being a racist an opportunity to say: 1 hour ago, ropy said: Some of my best children are foreign. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I must admit I keep losing myself laughing at 'I've got foreign children' Can just imagine him putting a call into his agent 'get me on Sportsound, I'll clear this mess right up'. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 All joking aside, I took offence as I have "foreign children" and to think of them in that way disgusts me. How the f**k can you call your own blood as foreign. No sensible person would even think of them in that way never mind say it on national radio. For that Maurice should be binned and not appear on the media again, f**k him. I also believe the BBC have been very crass in all of this. I await the interview with Ondrej Kudela next week to tell us all what really happened. I'm very good at judging a person as you can see from my post on 10th March.

Melanius Mullarkey Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 The very phrase “I have foreign children” demonstrates he doesn’t understand the core concept of racism the silly thick racist. Likewise the BBC for broadcasting that kind of inane dribblings or a moron. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's baffling the BBC gave him any sort of platform at all. Yes, you could argue what he said isnt THAT bad, but it was certainly a stupid comment for him to make, especially with the current push to eradicate those type of discrimatory remarks from the game. For the BBC to approve this PR piece is mind-boggling. If they had someone like Marvin Bartley or Chris Iwelumo on to lead a discussion on why those remarks are so damaging I could understand it. But to have Ross on is a fucking disgrace. The comments about his children is just plain weird. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that circumstance even I've got the sense to keep my mouth shut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarapoa Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 John Collins on again last night with his sevtic colt teams crusade - this time backing up some Lowland League chairman telling us how exciting and wonderful it would be having the 'stars of the future' playing against Dalbeattie and Stirling University. The thrill of the early rounds of the Irn Bru cup can be created on a weekly basis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Last night - complaining that no fans will be at Scottish Cup Final. Tonight - complaining that because UEFA are now allowing a limited number of fans in, the SFA are only asking for 3000. Some of the numbskulls keep comparing what England are allowing to what should be happening here, even though almost everything that is allowed in this country is different from what is allowed in England. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Surely they should aim much higher than a crowd of 3000 even if they don’t get it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
