What does that even say???
It says we have a very confused and angry Hun infiltrator on our board.
Probably still upset that they could have saved their club, but let it die. :flag:

Acid House is great if it's the film I'm thinking about with Pat Stanton in it? 3 shortish stories.

It will never happen but it would be interesting if someone on Sportsound had the balls to point out some of the hypocrisy around this. No doubt we will get a lengthy discussion about both this and the Morelos stamp. Michael Stewart might be the best hope if he's on.
In the last few years we have had a Hibs manager have a song aimed at him about his wife dying of cancer, a Hibs manager mocked for having had cancer and at least 4 managers repeatedly referred to as 'fenian *******s'. All of those actions have taken place in or around Ibrox and certainly in the case of the last one it was a vast, vast majority joining in. I barely remember them causing a ripple in the media and there was certainly no apology demanded of or received from Rangers. Suddenly they are the 'victims' and we all have to listen to this mock outrage.
I expect the lickspittles that make up the bulk of the BBC Scottish football output will have been well warned not to rock the boat though.
Don't forget them singing about Neil Lennon. We thought you were dead we hoped you were dead after he had some problems when he managed us.

I’m sure I remember reading that Jim Leishman was approached to play Boab’s dad, but he turned it down after looking at the script. I can’t find anything online about it but that would have been quite something.

Welsh's comments were not meant to be taken seriously.
If he had genuinely intended someone to do what he suggested, then it wouldn't be the SFA investigating but the Scottish SPCA.

Interesting that the huns seem to have taken on a new social conscience in recent times. They now seem to be the bastions of the fight against racism and threatening behaviour.
I'm looking forward to a new songbook from them when fans finally return to the stadium.

How can a PPV, club broadcast be taken to task when it was a guest that made the comments?!

Let’s be honest here, IW is very engaging, but not on a site that kids could be like watching.
Forget Rangers, simply not food enough from Hibs

Forget Rangers, simply not food enough from HibsSorry I disagree. If you believe that then kids shouldn't watch any TV and certainly shouldn't be taken to matches.
The only people bothered were huns looking for an excuse to be offended.

Tbh. I found him pretty boring that day , didn’t really enjoy his “performance “. Won’t be a popular opinion, but won’t miss him doing that stuff on Hibs TV...

The word's CONTEXT. Irvine Welsh was on Hibs TV and thus pandering to us Hibees. His wordiness on Morelos' cynical actions was delivered in his own inimitable literary way. . Hunspotting .. All woke and no joke.

It just shows is you make enough noise you get some kind of action.
We should try it and start making a fuss about the sectarian abuse directed at several of our managers and players at their stadium.
A warning would be a start.

It’s the risk you take when employing an alternative social commentator such as Irvine Welsh.
The context of his language is lost in the stuffy corridors of Scottish Football, who don’t want anyone to stray too far from the identikit pundit and the favoured buzzwords such as “shifts” “opportunities” “disappointed” “final thirds” “quality” “delighted” etc. It’s not like we already don’t get enough of that on sportsound.

I think it was chopping him up with a machete and feeding him to the seagulls.
Obviously IW was 100% serious and as such should have been dealt with by Police Scotland.
(I’m not being serious).

Should have argued that it was a small minority of our Irvine Welsh's so it was absolutely fine.
