Rumour on twitter is it was GMS.

[greenlex]

Must have been practising his diving.

[Pete]

It can't be GMS.

He's not black.

[matty_f]

Reported in The Sun as GMS (article is on twitter).

[jgl07]

Is this not an old story about Jinki Johnstone going out in a rowing boat from Largs the day before a Scotland International match?

[Keith_M]

Was he trying to recreate an episode from Still Game?

[lyonhibs]

Apparently he was bevvied and got into (or was on the outskirts of) some kind of altercation and chose to extract himself from it by hopping over a wall, somehow blissfully unaware that the River Kelvin was on the other side.

An idiot of gargantuan proportions in other words.

[Brightside]

Another wasted talent.

Bit of a nasty tone to this thread considering we don't know for sure which player that it is (not that it matters) and that they may well be in very critical condition.

Read the report.

[High-On-Hibs]

Read the report.

I've read the report.

"The player’s condition is unknown"

[Wilson]

I've read the report.

"The player’s condition is unknown"

That is a bit of a cop out from the media. We can assume he got wet at least.

Being reported as mild hypothermia.

[Brightside]

At home recovering.

Not really much dafter than what some of our players have been up to in the past.

"Former Celtic Star ...."
Get the paper-selling headline in first as usual. When was GMS ever a star for Celtic? Bit player at best.

[OsloHibs]

Hope it wasn't a cry for help, and was some kind of silly prank instead. He was in the water a long time, he's a very lucky man.

To be fair, the Evening Times is a Glasgow paper...

That's what I mean. Any connection to the OF is over emphasised to get the hook headline. Normal practice, I know, but it irks me.

[ian cruise]

A young boy from East Kilbride died falling in to the Clyde not that long ago after a night out so I'd say that he's very fortunate.

[I'm_cabbaged]

Being reported as mild hypothermia.

Surprised he never suffered from hypothermia at celtc

[Moulin Yarns]

Being reported as mild hypothermia.If he suffered from mild hypothermia the Kelvin must have been quite low.....I'll get my coat.

[Pretty Boy]

This.

Really 'hope' this was just an accident or prank gone wrong and nothing more concerning.

[Bostonhibby]

"Former Celtic Star ...."
Get the paper-selling headline in first as usual. When was GMS ever a star for Celtic? Bit player at best.To be totally fair I don't think celtc have ever had anyone else connected to them falling in the river in this way so he is a star in that respect.

A falling star, or is it fallen? It's hard to tell with divers.

Obviously not a very good bouy.

CANNOT EDIT FARRY:grr:

Any chance of an edit MOD!!

Ferry Mackay Stevens would be more appropriate

[cabbageandribs1875]

Ferry for Farry

[andybev1]

LOL - I like it!

[snooky]

Isn't this what they call a sheep dip :dunno:

[Colr]

Hypothermia in August?

Roasty toastie in the Weeg, then.

[Beefster]

If he suffered from mild hypothermia the Kelvin must have been quite low.....I'll get my coat.

Made me chuckle!

Gary MacKay-Freezin?

[craigmcfarlane]

He was a lost Bhoy.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

I wonder if he'd have done this whilst at Celtc? I know Broony got pashed around a certain "triangle area" of Embra but that was under Deliah. Changed days now. Wonder if Rogers would have seens such antics with his "group" (hate that effing term).

If the answer is "no" tells us everything about the character of the player and his professionalism.

[Northernhibee]

GMS - Super-sub.

[Bostonhibby]

GMS - Super-sub.He's a submersible substitute who has a habit of going down.

Some strange posts on this thread, the lad's mind might not be in a good place just now for all we know.

😂😂😂

[Moulin Yarns]

I was discussing this with a Partick fan and he said the area he went into the river is known for 'cruising'

[silverhibee]

He was out with Stuart Armstrong and seemingly got a kicking in the nightclub after knocking a girl down in the club and left after that, seemingly not the kind of folk you would want to mess with through the West, Armstrong was seemingly attacked as well.

Stuart Armstrong seemingly with GMS at the weekend where both had seemingly got a kicking inside the nightclub, wonder if we will hear from Rogers about it.

They should maybe ask Daly or Levein for their thoughts on the structure of the night out?

Was talking to a DUTD supporting work colleague today and he was telling me that there was rumours of him doing something similar when he was at United.

[Iggy Pope]

Can't win. If it was Derek Riordan arsing it up (and it often was) it would be "Ex Hibs Star" and you and others would be outraged. Or irked.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Fair point. And normally unless I'm particularly irked I tend to look at circumstances before jumping i (pun semi intended).

Seems like there's a whole different context around this although unknown at the outset.

[Stuart93]

Ah right, well all I can say is you'd think pro's would conduct themselves in a more appropriate manner

[Stuart93]

It would appear so, it's probably better it is that than anything else

The sooner folks sexuality is no longer a big deal and "news" the better imo.

Out on the lookout for a bit of casual "in-out" man-o-mano usually around known "haunts".

I agree. You do realise right that my comment wasn't in anyway judging his sexuality?

:agree: it's only "news" because they're scared to admit it.

Apart from the hope it was him just doing soething stupid for a laugh and nothing to do with personal problems, this thread has made me laugh... a lot.
