Wile E Coyote Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Right, so its monkey is the term that was allegedly used. All the Darvel party are white so i am saying this is a load of pish 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiepiyo Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) I’m not even sure thats the word being used, never mind who the intended victim was, so that’s why it would be important to investigate it. Be interesting to see what footage I have of the day if i trawl through every second of it. Edited November 3, 2022 by Killiepiyo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanner Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Having seen a clip where "monkey" is used I'm dumfounded at the reaction this is getting. I can't overstate how much I would gladly see anyone using discriminatory language removed from Beechwood but unless there's some more evidence,then that's clearly not what has happened here. It would be laughable if it wasn't so serious. Darvel's new general manager and his weasel words in that Record article are an embarrassment, and this all smacks of the opportunistic use of a serious issue to settle a petty grievance, which is shameful. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new General Manager is just another attention seeker so he will fit in well at Darvel along with the rest of them,and as i have said before i feel sorry for the genuine Darvel fans who are caught up in this Circus down the brae . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugbyroader Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Why are Darvel even commenting on the alleged racist slur? If the comment was ‘monkey’ and it was made at a black person there would be a case to answer but given that everyone in the Darvel game was white where is the slur? I don’t see what they are trying to gain apart from an attempt at shit stirring when there is no shit to stir. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Glens at home in a localish derby is a good fixture to move onto after 2 high energy cup games imo. A decent atmosphere and maybe a bit of needle to keep the performances as focussed as the last couple of matches rather than sweeties rustling at some astro in a glasgow scheme.

Blackie Gold Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Thought we were outstanding last week but one swallow doesn't make a summer, hopefully we can push on and start climbing the league. The Glens seem to be keeping their better performances away from home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanner Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Well done Talbot. would love to see the Glens goal again. Honestly looked about 6 yards offside at the time, but appreciate the camera can show it was on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot supporter Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I see we are away to the Buffs on Wed night, could be a massive 3 points if we can win as it would jump us up the league, always a difficult game think they beat us the last time at Kilwinning? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
