He's one horrible c**t. He wants nothing to do with the abuse yet proceeds to mention it in his newspaper column. Yeah, sure. Practically begging for it to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically mentioning him waving an Irish flag to justify any abuse he receives Not so much a dog whistle but a bullhorn Would like the players union to come out and condemn that article. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clown Job Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Maybe slight off topic, but I was just having a quick listen to the Athletic podcast about Euro 92 Stewart Weir was contributing to it from a Scottish perspective It felt embarrassing listening to him, didn’t say a single positive thing about Scotland, didn’t even discuss the team we had Came across as almost apologetic for us being at the tournament and having a cheek to beat the CIS in it Claimed one of the reasons Scotland fans didn’t cause trouble was because we realised if we smashed up a pub at 12pm, it won’t be opened later after the game. I had to double check, only 8 teams qualified for that tournament so we must have been half decent 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) Stewart Weir is an imbecile. Very much of the "everything's shite, everything has always been shite, everything will always be shite" school of thinking and thus contributes zero to any discussion.

Horrific article, but taking aside the obvious playing to the gallery, there is some kernels of truth in there. Griffiths does have himself to blame for a lot of his problems and yes, he should be able to not react to taunts and chants, but that article reads like a call to Rangers fans to go hell for leather at Griffiths. What does tieing a scarf or waving a flag have to do with his current form, problems or ability? Boyd of all people should be able to see beyond the stuff surrounding a game and see there is bigger issues here, but rather than offer help or advice, he just has a dog whistle to the Rangers fans. Problem is, we will see more of this kind of stuff from papers as it is total clickbait to support their attempts to stem a slow death. Boyd could have a lot to contribute to sports media in Scotland, but he's too busy being the media guy for the Govan team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he wasn’t banned for comments about Dundee, he was going out his way to give RFC fans the green light to abuse Griffiths.

Ludo*1 Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 That's the fairest banning there's been. Fully deserved. It was nothing but a hit piece encouraging abuse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but he doesn’t really, even by footballers standards he’s pretty thick. I have no idea why he’s a permanent pundit, watching him take deep breaths whilst trying to piece his thoughts at live games is a painful watch.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I think he is terrible when reporting on games and is such a sneery pundit, but he COULD contribute something given his experiences playing, knowledge of metal health issues and goalscoring abilities. But, he wants to be a pounshop pundit and try to wind folk up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
