    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.

    Is that his cutting remark that they are referring to?

    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.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    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

    Sorry 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.

    Kids will hear much, much worse on youtube or at school

    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.

    Did he get questioned in the end?

    Just realised I commented with almost the same comment three months ago!

    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).

    Sfh, I mean Rangers fans getting offended for taking offence's sake. It was patently obvious to everyone that IW was joking.

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