That was the day Richard Gordon showed himself up as xenophobic twit with his call to deport Miko ,the BBC should have made him apologise to Miko Edited March 30, 2020 by ToadKiller Dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Jambo Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 In some ways similar to Edouard in the cup final. Which explains why the media have castigated him ever since, called for him to be deported and he now gets booked for diving in every game.

SectionDJambo Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I saw this in a pub on the High Street, whilst I and other guests, at a friends wedding, nipped out for a beer before heading to his house for the reception. When we saw this incident from a fair bit away from the tv, the first comment that came up was to hope that it wasn't one of the Hearts players who had dived. Sadly, it was, and we all knew what would come later. Scotland actually won this game though, right? Not a bright thing for Miko to have done, especially when he played for a Scottish club, but the reaction from the press was as if he had put Scotland out of the tournament. Nothing much said about O'Connor doing the same, but with less skill, in the same match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionDJambo Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I can't remember if this happened before or after the Davis scandal. If it was after, maybe Miko thought that there wasn't much honesty or integrity in the Scottish game anyway, so he didn't think twice. He was certainly hung out to dry by the Scottish sports media and the SFA over that Rangers game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elshin Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Blatent penalty 😉 I was at the game but as the year went on i lost my love of supporting scotland.

Craig_ Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 The one that still rankles for me is that Scotland game where the OF pulled seven of their players out prior to a Derby, then the media had the temerity to blame the maroon strip for our loss (0-2 to Georgia iirc). Pricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to 2005 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I seem to recall we questioned Mr Davis's integrity or lack of it the following day. Funnily enough the cheating weegies backed their man and next month he ran the line at the cup final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupid Sexy Flanders Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 The abuse he got from the media after that incident was absolutely scandalous, especially in a game Scotland ended up winning anyway. Gordon Smith of the SFA was lobbying FIFA to ban him for Hearts! 😄 Mind the game against the Czechs where the boy dived and they scored the penalty to make it 2-2 which cost us a playoff position? There was nowhere near the same outcry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one time he came on as a sub and within thirty seconds, in his first involvement in the game, the ref booked him for "persistent fouling". It was ridiculous, he was clearly upset, big Zal had to go and comfort him and the crowd all sang his name. And yes you're right, the big Hibs huddy dived in that Scotland game too.

Leckie was always trying to be controversial but never really had the brains to be. I remember him writing an article on a murder in Paisley when a young lad was shot in a case of mistaken identity. He went on to blame a drugs war in Barrhead on it as if he had some insight into the underworld. Pure fantasy. He should stick to writing articles on his favourite pub being closed down.
