    I just watched the whole thing. I wasn't that impressed with GO'C to be honest. As others have said he does seem to have a very selective memory.

    Just watched it too and really enjoyed it, thought Gaz came across well and got a good few laughs out of it.

    Him not remembering his Lokomotiv managers name made me laugh.

    Thought his comments regarding the final were quite interesting, the team really was in proper disarray at the point, fighting relegation, tactics getting changed on the day of the game, rubbish bonuses for winning the cup, far too many loan players, shambles.

    Wasn't he caught on camera carrying on in background as a player was being interviewed after Final? Then went up town to drink and do his thing. Selective memory indeed

    Aye, became a bit hard to listen to with him using ****ing as a filler word non stop while he was thinking. Hopefully he is genuinely sober like he says he is and is getting himself back on track. His academy sounds like it's got good intentions behind it so would be nice to see it work out.

    For those interested in helping his Academy out a wee bit, see my 'Hibs legends game, 26/5/18, Spartans Academy' thread further down this page (be the first to view it 😁).

    Glad to hear him, Sparky and Ihun ( ) got stuck into jokers like Kennedy after that final.

    Kennedy was a Stubbs player

    Maybe you're thinking Docherty?

    Likewise. I've watched all the Open Goal episodes and it's not unusual to hear some swearing, but GO'C was toiling to complete a sentence without f'ing and c'ing. Not that great an advert for his Second Chance Academy. Waiting patiently in hope on the Stokesy interview!

    laughing, joking and signing autographs before being asked to leave a certain bar in Hanover Street about an hour after getting back to Edinburgh. Also a sign of the times players arguing about bonus payments before the biggest game of the season is played - showed you where their collective mindset was. And what was this 'That boy from Honduras' nonsense

    GOC and Derek in their prime were a joy to watch. That interview however made me very sad at how someone could let it all go to waste.

    Astonishing that he could've peeved away all that money he made, 20k a week tax free, jeezo...

    Clearly loves the club. I think people forget O'Connor threw his runners up medal away after receiving it, he was clearly hurting and I'd believe that he went mad in the dressing room. Achieved a lot for this club!

    On the other hand, did he admit to some dodgy stuff in Russia involving blood transfusions during that interview???

    Watched it. Can't say I enjoyed it though mainly due to the bad language. Most of us can use it however, it never comes over well when talking to the public whether on TV or through a microphone.
    Having said that, I like Gaz. I used to think he was just a big daft laddie (and I mean that in the nice way). I still think he's a big daft laddie (and I mean that in the nice way). Not sure I would take every single thing he said as gospel though.

    Yes, I think he said it was to cleanse their blood.

    Don’t mind O’Connor but feel he’s the type of player to come across well after the event has happened zzzzzz

    Triggered over bad language 😂

    Docherty was out of line after the final but always gave his all on the park imo. Same can't be said for O'Connor imo, desperately unfit and missing for months in his 2nd spell. I certainly don't love him.
