Sad news regarding one of our media friends. Posted from Twitter without further comment.

Sad to report that after more than 25 years, I’m finished at the Sunday Mail.
Nothing to do with the current crisis, just surplus to requirements apparently. Another nick towards death by 1000 cuts.
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for reading. See you behind the goals…

 

[Fu Manchu]

Oh dear,how sad,never mind.

 

[Vallance]

Shame that.

 

[Talktalk]

I’m on hunger strike in sympathy

I’m on hunger strike in sympathy

Me too !

 

[The Underfaker]

Similar to The Buckfast news.

Slight joy in terribly troubled times.

How old is he ? Can’t be because he isn’t enough of an arse licker either .

Sounds a tad resentful about it. Hey-ho.

 

[Stags Blue]

Don't let the door hit your arse on the way out.

 

[GodStruth]

I must say I'll miss his weekly column, which has been the same four 'opinions' recycled for 20 years. Rangers disgrace, Celtic supreme, Lawwell stong genius, diddy team fans are the best

 

[KGR98]

Anybody with better memory than me enlighten me with some of his articles

 

[Rangers_loyal_1]

Now that's a job loss I can sleep easy over.

 

[Masonic Penny]

Good news in these troubled times.

 

[dh1963]

Probably give his Sunday column to Sutton or Tom Boyd.

Good riddance to him though, one less hater in a media job.

 

[Anoldranger]

One horrible bastard

 

[RFC Numerouno]

Looking forward to reading his next article in the obituaries column!

 

[Follow Follow All the Way]

Lol.

 

[GodStruth]

Anybody with better memory than me enlighten me with some of his articles

One of his famous pieces suggested that if Rangers were a person, every decent football fan would enjoy punching him until his knuckles were raw

Nice guy

 

[bearmind]

'Released' with or without Electronic Ankle Tag?

 

[jefftracy]

He should be thankful he managed to reach 25 years employment considering his lack of talent.

 

[jprfc]

I was watching Sunday supplement on sky, the weekend after the football was suspended, one of the journalists was saying that him and his colleagues were gonna have to be very creative if they want to keep their jobs as theres no live sport to report on...i guess that rules Gordon out.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Ah well

 

[The Royal Standard]

Karmas a bitch , eh cunto ?

 

[Zim Pusan]

Karma fairly doing the rounds which is nice,one hate filled poet boaby sooking scumbag,Falkirk fan my arse

 

[RangersEasyOK]

Great news

 

[FrankDrebin]

Oh dear, wee shame!!!!

Nice guy

Clearly approached his work with a clear lack of bias then ah well %^*& him hope the rest of them go to the wall aswell

 

[thetoptier]

an absolute c.unt

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Some welcome cheer in these dismal times.

 

[SingingCorner]

Good news

Is he going to stand behind both goal at the same time?
If one goal, I hope it is the one that is in the blast zone. That is if he is left with a team to support.

 

[4ladsHAD]

Excellent news .

 

[Erniep]

What a shame. Move on. Next!

 

[Jack Regan]

One of the worst what a shame

 

[DougieJones]

A book of his collected columns wouldn’t contain one decent line, one cogent opinion, one original thought. A complete waste of 25 years - well done Gordon.

 

[scotty27]

Not before time.

 

[Johnny Yen]

Surplus to requirements, that’s really got to hurt.

 

[Brant Hurley]

I'd be off to George Sq with a candle....if I gave a fcuk for this Rangers-hating oxygen thief.

 

[Eddie Doc]

Surplus to requirements.

This guy literally made a living out of kicking us every week mate.That he got away with it for so long is indicative of the shit show dressed up as journalism in this country.

I’m of the opinion the likes of h&h and four lads showing the way with fan led content is addressing this cancer in what is a big part of the problem with our game.

 

[RabSpackman]

The prick hasn’t written anything insightful in all of those 25yrs. It’s all about whipping up emotion and taking a regular pop at Rangers and one at Celtic from time to time to appear evenhanded.

He has added nothing to Scottish football in his career.

 

[Rangers1982]

Can't say I know much about him but gets my post count closer to 250

 

[Kingstein]

As the old Guinness advert said
" good things come to those that wait"
Bye bye bawbag, seems like all that brown nosing of fat pete was for nothing

 

[rcdingwall]

At last, some good news this week.

 

[lacoste12]

Gee that’s a shame

 

[Kirbys House]

Good news in tough times.

 

[The Gooner]

All that sucking up to Lawwell and the filth should guarantee him work at the cesspit. Although incredibly they probably think he is one of us.

 

[SA444]

Aw diddums.

 

[Spudgun]

Surplus to requirements?
Presumably means he's among, if not the the, worst journo there.
That's quite an achievement!
