If they are going to sign him, then they should have the balls to go through with it, and not ditch him again at the sign of the first angry tweet Or maybe do their homework and think about the likely (justified) reaction to signing a rapist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working on the assumption that they have done their homework, but then their arse collapses when the reality hits home on social media. Fwiw I wouldn't have him anywhere near my club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is what is most incredible about it. Other footballers have seen all the shit he's taking, have seen the boy hounded out of clubs and watched any of his supporters be shot down, yet they still think it's wise to call a rapist a top man. A couple of Dumbarton players have shared the statement as well, albeit without any comment, but I'd rather they just kept their mouths (or social media pages) quiet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I won't link to it, because f**k that c**t, but Goodwillies "explanation" is as expected. A meandering, self indulgent, plea for people to pity how hard lifes been for him since he raped someone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally know of two reporters (one of whom is a Clyde fan too fwiw) who tried several times unsuccessfully to get an interview with him, and that's only in my friend group. There will absolutely have been others too, and I could probably name a good few who I suspect would've tried. Any reporter with any news-sense at all about them would take it on. An exclusive chat with him, regardless of what you think about him, would get clicks and sell papers. I'd read it. It might disgust me and anger me. But I'd still read it. I suspect where it's fallen down (and I have no knowledge here at all) is in how he wants it framed. He will (I'd imagine) want it framed around 'I feel an injustice' or 'my career has been lost, let me restart it' and no reporter or editor would allow that or any form of victim blaming. It probably would've been something you could get away with 20 years ago or so, but thankfully times (and morals) have changed. It annoys me when I see people saying his livelihood has been taken away from him and that he deserves to earn a living. He does. Aye. But playing football is a privilege as well as a job, and he lost that privilege when a civil trial judged him to be a rapist. That won't stop him from earning an honest wage in another industry, but it should stop him being in the industry he is in. Just as he would've lost his job in the same circumstances if he had been a politician, a teacher or even a journalist. Can you imagine Reporting Scotland being fronted by someone with his background? (for example). I see he's back, and finishes with this: The press wouldn't listen to my story. To my story isn't interesting enough for the press. To, please do no contact me as I don't want the attention despite making a social media account purely for the attention. It makes me despair just how many people you see defending him. Thankfully nobody (yet) I know personally has. But they will be getting a swift unfollowing if they do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool; I’ll just stick exclusively to my ‘following’ so I don’t get limited by the ‘for you’ timeline that throws up nonsense at me and all his blue ticks can bitch at him because nobody’s seeing their shit takes on everything anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
