Thread: Charlie Adam

  1. #1

    Charlie Adam

    Just been listening to him on Sportsound. Very honest, despite his success in the game, not a Billy Bigtime at all IMO. Didn't know he was a St Mirren fan, and pointed out how glad he was to get out of the goldfish bowl and Rangers.

    I'm sure he only played for rangers. Or unless Speroni asked him to play in the testimonial. Just like how Ian Murray got both Patrick Viera & Robert Pires to play in his.

    He played for Dundee as a youth before he signed for Rangers, around the time Speroni was there. He was brought up in Fintry so every chance he's a Dundee fan.

    He still ha a house in Blackpool by all accounts, and he certainly was a Billy big baws when he played for them. Maybe he's a bit different now he's earnt his life changing signing on fee and wages, but when he was at Blackpool believe me he was an erse.

    Mind you he's nowhere near as bad as that complete bellend Paul Stewart formally of Blackpool Tottenham and Man City.

    Aye City too, i'd actually forgotten he played for Liverpool. He's well known round these parts for having the same problems as a recent ex Hibs centre forward.

    His behavior when playing behind us he other week was abysmal, we were being held up by a couple of 4 balls in front who were both playing in a comp, the 4 ball behind us kept shouting for us to hurry up and were firing balls up to and past us before we'd taken our 2nd and 3rd shots.

    My mate had enough after it happened for the 3d time, and walked back and gave them a bollocking. He also waited for them at the 18th to do it again right in front of a big crowd sitting on the outside bar.

    Apparently he has a habit of annoying folk at that course, and had been warned about his behavior before, and he's been requested to appear in front of the committee again.

    He's a dick.

    Why would growing up in Fintry make you a Dundee fan? Unless there's another place called Fintry, it miles away.

    Off topic but highlight of the programme was when Chick Young took a cheap shot at Ian Murray because he was not at a pre arranged free transfer match at Braidwood.

    Quick as a flash Ian replied 'Chick, I thought you were at Ibrox'.

    Paul Stewart lived in Poulton G, remember seeing him and Gascoigne out drinking in the Thatched back in the day they were at Spurs together.

    There's a scheme called Fintry in Dundee.

    It's produced a few footballers down the years: Derek Johnstone, Stephen Glass, Scott Robertson and Charlies senior and junior.

    Sure Stewart is an answer to a quiz question as he played in London Derby, Merseyside Derby, Manchester Derby and Glasgow Derby. Maybe another as well.

    Paul Stewart didn't play in the Glasgow one did he?

    I know what you mean though, he is a popular quiz answer for his derby participation. The other one is (I think) Andrei Kanchelskis.


    I love info about obscure footballers either being billy big-baws bampots or total gentlemen.

    I don't think Kanchelskis played in the London derby, but he did play in derbies for Everton, Man United and Huns RIP.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Saturday afternoon Sports programme on Radio Scotland. Don't know it's name but was on from 2 til 5.
    Most of the usual suspects featured. Some terrible dross Was gardening and had it on in the background. Would have been better listening to the weeds growing!!
