[Jackie Brown]

Says a lot about a Methody education

[rumncoke]

No Jackie when you assume a racist motive by someone else with evidence — it says more about you you can practice genocide at this time in history but don’t say anything or do anything which someone considers racist.

A Methody education Sir is better than none .

( didn’t attend Methody but have several friends who are Collegians And we share the same sense of humour which in this day and age would be classified as political incorrect —- long live Benny Hill )

Somebody help me here. I don't know whether to be shocked, offended, amused, angry, worried, frustrated, suicidal, etc etc. And I'm not sure whom to be all of the above with: Gilroy, UR, Bell Tell, any of the previous posters, Methody or myself. Give me a wee hand, would you?

[Evil Kiwi]

Be angry at the BT lowlife twunts. They trawling UR player's social media for anything they can twist into a story. Would Gilroy even know what a 'coon' means? I had to look it up. The first few hits on google are all about racoons.

[Jackie Brown]

Least he didn't call him a spide.

Well said Mike McComish on twitter. He has called on Petrie to ban BT from access to players.

Absolutely right. This kind of guff cannot be allowed to go unchallenged.

Spotted. JC out for a run the day. Looked as fit as a robber's dog.

Shame that this ballix occurred in his purple patch.

Would the moderators on this site have allowed Gilroys post to stand?
I don't think so.
If it is open to misinterpretation then it will be misinterpreted.
People have been barred from this site for less.
Banning players from having social media accounts is probably impossible ( although passing an intelligence test first might be a help), but players need to remember that it is the whole world that can read their posts, not just their mates.
Bit like here really.

[Vanhelsing]

Quick,sack him hang by the nuts flog him ffs get a grip lads it just another joke. wind yer neck in.

[germcevoy]

Silly boy. He could choose any photo he wanted and he goes for that one.

Laughed at all the outrage over the nickname but he just had to use the photo with it. Silly.

[Evil Kiwi]

I think Cooney should change his name.

I wish someone would ban you.

Just a racist joke huh. This martyrdom complex some have about about the highlighting of very questionable behaviour really is quite something.

Aye. "John" suggests his parents had a serious lack of imagination.
