Just me, family and football. Former footballer, coach and assistant manager. My book about 30yrs in the game, TAXI FOR FARRELL was OK. Might do another one
@eddie_toner Said Charlie to Cammy well oh what a scene,
That Glasgow again will be covered in green,
The big guy from Oz is the man we all praise,
All Hail our big Ange and our glorious days.
Great weekend climbing Buachaille Etive Mor and Ben Nevis raising funds for Carntyne/Riddrie Foodbank @johnlyons1960 Well done Harris @harrisforreste2 £1340 raised to help feed local families.
@mrewanmurray You should try asking the police for an explanation! I know the SLO and the club reps do, but it's not making any difference. There is a serious issue here that needs addressed. I hope it's taken seriously. I've highlighted it b4. Here's hoping, but I won't hold my breath
@tedermeatballs@mrewanmurray That's the point everyone is missing though. It's not the turnstiles that were/are often the problem. It's the 'pens' beforehand. Ewan has probably never experienced it though. Still, it's only a game......
@mrewanmurray You continue to avoid my point about the safety issues OUTSIDE the ground which need better controlled by clubs and police and were NOT the fault of ticketless fans. I've made it now. You can maybe speak to your club about how they address it. Or not
@mrewanmurray Main reason is that too many people try to congregate around the area of the GB. That is a fact. My issue is these crushes OUTSIDE occur weekly. Children, families caught up in it. Safety is being compromised and irresponsible statements blaming a secondary issue, do not help
@mrewanmurray Have you seen the images from OUTSIDE the ground cos that's what I'm referring too? As is Hearts statement, blaming ticketless fans for crushes at turnstiles. It's incorrect and an attempt to deflect blame onto supporters
@mrewanmurray I was there last night, in the crush. You may not have seen me from ur cosy seat in the press box. Nonsensical to suggest the crush was due to ticketless fans. I've written about this before, nothing has changed. If u want the facts tho, rather than peddling conjecture , 1/2 ....
I wrote this for @NutmegMagazine 3 YEARS AGO about the self preservation culture that exists within Scottish football. NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
