Thread Temporarily Removed.......

What will it take to get them both back?

lol

[tikay]

never saw the thread but cant believe bandit got banned over a spat with billy heat of moment etc etc but new acc? bandit ffs lol

It's standard practice after a red card, it usually takes about 2 minutes to suss. But they always give it a spin. A note to the Mods would be far more effective.

What would it take for Fergus to repay his debts?

I don't see him ever being welcomed back.

Why on earth does anyone think fergus should ever be given back his posting privileges on this site?  I can only assume those calling for fergus to be reinstated are deliberately trolling or having a laugh.  I mean, seriously, what did he bring to the forum?  Since he left he still owes money to a number of decent people and has written some pretty nasty stuff about blonde members (including some of those from whom he stole) on his 'blog'.  Why some people seem to want to make out that the guy is some kind of hero I don't understand.

Now I'm annoyed with myself for taking the bait.  gg trolls.

hmm looks like im a troller then lol

he paid back most of the glasgow scots so he could play live without worryin bout gettin his ear clipped. I doubt the rest will be so lucky

As for Bandit, I saw the thread and he was defo heated, and probably deserved his time in the hole, but its Glasgowbandit, the greatest poster in the history of the internet!! It would be a tragedy for him to remain banned!

... Add to that the fact the guy is just walking away from you with his hands in his pockets, minding his own business, and you are an officer of the law. ...

That's not how I interpreted the image even in the video.

It takes a bit of reading between the lines, but

my impression was that the police were herding protesters, this guy was deliberately getting in their way to slow them down and block them.
EDIT: ie stop them doing their job

There's no doubt the police officer was in the wrong, but my impression was he just got impatient with this guys tactics and stepped out of line to push him 'out of the way' rather than push him over.

You can achieve a lot with selective editing - it may be that the policeman just fancied hurting someone but generally speaking most people don't 'accidentally' get caught up in a protest.

I agree with this post.



That is all.

Unedited footage:



"this guy was deliberately getting in their way to slow them down and block them"?

"stepped out of line to push him 'out of the way rather than push him over."?

Not sure that's my interpretation from the footage.

[Boba Fett]

He paid back a lot of it.

Cmon guys, if the Mint casino can forgive him and unban him then surely anyone can?

See Totalise's Post.

Quit on it, he ain't returning. End of.

I think fergus should be unbanned whenever:

a) there is an old firm game on
b) scotland play england in some sporting event
c) celtic lose an important european game
d) rangers win an important european game

I guess my interpretation is different than yours. 

Another heated debate on the way?  I wonder if we can get the 'Thread Temporarily Removed.......' Thread removed.

It said on the radio that this guy was wearing a Millwall shirt and was absolutely off his tits?

Can anyone confirm/deny?

[Rookie (Rodney)]

Haha, the guy sure was walking home from work. Unless of course he works at the pub. He sounded off out of his tree, and was definitely walking slow to wind up the police.

Those protests were ridiculous and the police dealt with the whole of them well IMO. The guy says how he was sitting there talking to the police after being pushed over, and that the police don't help! He was far from talking, we cannot hear what he says sadly due to his slurring. He can't help himself up which kinda tells you he is off his head!

Ok, his death is sad and unwanted. But to instantly blame it on police that were keeping the protests/riots under as much control as possible is wrong. What about the police that were attacked by other protesters? They just have to shake it off and go to work the next morning because they didn't end up dieing this time..

pro police will confirm this
anti police will deny this

[Indestructable]

Those that blame the police won't change their mind. Those like me that blame the rioters for making it necessary to have riot police won't change their mind (including me) so may be a pointless debate. I had posted well before G20 my views on these rioters and their pointless violence.
The truth is probably that the guy had a serious health condition and didn't take much for him to have a heart attack. RIP.
