AUcal Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 I think there was a drink driving charge when he was 17 or 18. Very stupid behaviour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure at the time that [redecated] was also involved although rumours that @Richey Edwards had a video of it as well were misguided. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Are we seriously going back to someone doing something stupid when they were eighteen fucking years old to try and castigate them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would never sign Alan Lithgow if that was the case, or an individual banned for betting on matches. Good on Morton for being the moral compass Scottish football needs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 My redactions are entirely football related, I didn't know about the drink driving and no club can claim to be morally upstanding when it comes to employing people with criminal offences in their background. On an entirely hypothetical and unrelated note, if a footballer was to be involved in a serious footballing offence and evidence of that offence wasn't in the public domain, it would therefore potentially be unwise to explicitly post that allegation online, but if you had reason to believe it was true yourself you could still dislike that footballer for that reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Is this because he signed a pre contract with us then got sent off against Arbroath? Struggling to think what constitutes a serious footballing offence that you couldn’t talk about online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is almost better than him being just that stupid and/or clumsy. I think I'd maybe rather people think I was doing something underhand, to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth that isn't actually true in the UK is it? Unsure about Scots law but in England something sufficiently defamatory can still be held to be libellous even if it is technically not wrong. Genuinely can't believe this thread is now all about whether McGinty is shit or not after he had a shit game.
