Will alter my comment to 'pity he has already played as Firhill and hope he never gets the opportunity to do so again'. As far as Clyde are concerned regarding Love & Goodwillie, they were exploiting the circumstances to sign players they wouldn't normally have been able to afford and who wouldn't normally have signed for them! They have absolutely no moral compass! It stems to some of the fans too, the songs they were singing that last time we played them at Firhill, were nothing short of embarrassing and disgusting. Danny Lennon is the only good thing about that club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t disagree there in fairness.

A person is innocent until proven guilty and an accusation is not the same as being guilty. In my opinion the guy should just be allowed to get on with playing football without comments about shadows hanging over him being made and people making hint hint comments. Well said FT - totally agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emsca Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 On 8/22/2020 at 9:32 AM, exiledjag said: Interesting conversation! It set me thinking about the former Dundee Utd, Blackburn, Aberdeen and current Clyde player David Goodwillie and his pal David Robertson (who retired from football). Both players were accused of rape but following a police investigation the Crown Prosecution Service declined to prosecute for lack of evidence. The young woman concerned subsequently won a civil case. I am also a great believer in the principle of 'innocent until proven guilty'. For example, the recent Alex Salmond case. While the details of his case showed him not to be the man I thought he was I was never convinced of his guilt. However the Goodwillie case set me in the opposite direction of being convinced of his guilt and a view that the CPS let everyone down by not prosecuting this individual! Although I have never really liked Clyde FC I lost all respect for them when they signed Goodwillie. I saw this as a purely opportunistic signing completely lacking all moral responsibility. As soon as our League 1 status was confirmed I thought of the prospect of Goodwillie coming to Firhill and considered it to be abhorrent. So there I am. I consider an individual who has not even been prosecuted guilty of a criminal act. I still believe in the principle of 'innocent until proven guilty" but not in Goodwillie' s case. Pity we are powerless to prevent him playing at Firfill. I assume (hope) in the case of this new signing the Board and Management have done their 'due diligence'! Why do you say that? There are p[eople on here who cannot wait to look for the negative in anything/ everything the Club does. We have signed a new young player the aim of which is to strengthen our squad and assist in making Thistle ( the team we all allegedly support) better. What do people want to talf about? His playing style; attributes: playing history ?? No - some unproven allegation of wrongdoing. Pathetic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The internet really is a heap of shite sometimes. It's none of our business. The separation of "incidents" and players on the park is an interesting idea. I'm sure this board criticising Thistle fans yelling "Beast" at Goodwillie, and look forward to the threads condemning anyone who does in the future. "In the year to September 2019, about 4% of all rape cases reported to the police were referred to the CPS. Of these, just over three quarters made it to court." -- BBC news report. That's a lot of men who are "innocent" and "smeared" in this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West of Scotland Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 That Record article is an indication of the utter shite state of journalism in this country where one person is given free reign to present their story without question, in fact even encouraged, when a simple Google search reveals why that is so, and the actual decisions made in the case.
