I’ve even seen one Dundee Utd fan saying they would be using the OAP/child gate at Starks this season because of it! That'll sure show us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 It’s good to see that on a mainstream Scottish football forum the Andrew Tate fan club appear to be very much in the minority. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 3 minutes ago, RandomGuy. said: A few years ago Dundee United invited him to an official celebration of an old cup win. Reports suggested he was announced like a hero, an act the club didnt object to, and United fans in attendance gave him a standing round of applause and chanted his name. They sung "David Goodwillie, he does what he wants". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a swatch at the likes on his self pitying nonsense, got the head of recruitment at Falkirk, the Clyde photographer and SLO, lots of people with claims to coach youth teams. But the worst seemed to be someone who’s bio claims they are a senior teacher. Wild how thick some people are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also be the case that NLC also saw that as the last straw that made their list of issues with Clyde too big to continue working with, so just kicked them out. As I recall it, there was still a year left on their lease, but they left in a huff on a point of principle about who they could employ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I’m not sure about the society has changed since 2017 line. Chef Evans was released in 2014 and Sheffield Utd, Hartlepool, Oldham and Grimsby all had to abandon attempts to sign him. Of course his conviction was overturned and he resumed his career but that shows there was a significant pushback then, several years before the Goodwillie judgement.

It's not been a sea change but it has happened. Wasn't that long ago when being on the register was practically a prerequisite for signing for Clyde.

Slight difference between a criminal and civil conviction. If he’s going to be ostracised from life then I’d expect the criminal threshold to be reached. The council allow convicted murders and paedos to use their facilities so strange how this person is singled out. Happy enough if they ban them all but GCC should be even handed in punishing people I hope no person in your life has to suffer what is said to be the worst crime you survive. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. You're ignorant in the issues of why rape has such a tiny prosecution level and why the victim sought as civil conviction. Read the testimony given to the civil case. Heard by three judges, top legal experts in the country. Then go and tell your daughter/sister/wife you'd happily allow them intoxicated in his company.

RandomGuy. Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Goodwillie is treated differently because hes high profile, rightly or wrongly. He had to choose whether to slink into the background like Robertson and never be mentioned, or try and remain a footballer and keep the profile and the cost that brings. He chose to keep his high profile and all that entails. Once he had that high profile he could have used it to repent and try and help prevent others repeating his actions and help rehabilitate others to not repeat offend (like Martindale does), or he could be a little bitch and moan that hes not getting the best of both worlds in terms of being a high profile rapist who gets ignored. He chose to complain that being a high profile rapist brings attention to him. Literally everything thats happening to Goodwillie is completely and utterly his own fault. The fact that the utter moron, who turns 35 years old this season, can't see that his footballing career is completely and utterly dead, is incredible. The fact he can't see that, with no footballing career imminently appearing, that creating a whole media circus around himself and making himself an even higher profile rapist than before means that he'll struggle to even get a job outside of football anytime soon, is just bizarre. You reap what you sow. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodwillie is a narcissist and will never realise why he is wrong. Maybe Ayrexcile should become a second poster to educate themself.

Bully Wee Villa Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 He doesn't play in the Championship so may as well lock this.
