afca32 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Think that's fair enough tbh. Hopefully he learns from it and comes back a better player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeAreElgin Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Great read. I think that Elgin have been very patient with McHardy over the years and this is no different. Hopefully it has the desired effect; won't hold my breath for a grand return in the summer though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Elgin City Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 All fair enough comment from Gavin Price. Darryl has a chance to turn this around. Sadly I doubt we will ever see him in an Elgin shirt again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it be community service, suspended sentence or jail time. I’m a fan of Kane. He’s got talent. Wouldn’t want to see him banned from football due to this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thom & Gerry Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 As a player of Elgin, who as a team I think you support, rather than kick a boy when he’s down, might be supportive to keep your thoughts to yourself. You’ve made it plain enough in the past that your not a fan of him as a player. He hasn’t even been found guilty of anything yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MITM Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Wont say jail him but needs to know not to do again so a big enough fine would probably do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Am Muilleach Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I just don't see how "locking him up" would serve any purpose. IF found guilty, a fine, a gambling awareness course and then a spell of community service going round talking about gambling addiction would surely be more appropriate. Gambing is a huge problem in football, and in society in general, better to get something good from the situation rather than fill prisons up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elgin proud Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 great result today back in the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Elgin City Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 That result today is good payback from the nightmare last gasp loss to Stirling at BB. 2 brilliant away wins in a row. Really badly need to build on that next Saturday at Brechin before having a right go at Cove the following Saturday at BB. A lot of false dawn's this season but fingers crossed this is the time for a serious tilt at the top 4 or above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Scottish Football's main 3 sponsors are Ladbrokes, William Hill and Betfred doesn't exactly discourage gambling either does it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
