I'm making this up as I need attention: Spiers is heading back to the Herald as head of sport

[mdingwall]

That’s the deckchairs being cut up on the Titanic

 

[The Crimson King]

A bit like grabbing a brick to stop yourself from drowning.

 

[Ped78]

Spiers knows fuxk all about sports.

 

[Vallance]

Dick-head of sport.

 

[Dumfriesbear]

The Gherald need to phone Samaritans that is the paper equivelent of jumping in front of a train.

 

[drgriffen]

Don't know how much he knows about other sports but he knows nothing about football.

 

[Prestwick_ Bear]

Turd Gurgling Bawbag.

 

[fergie1959]

Keevins at the sunday mail. Spears at the herald. Placemen to try and defend the indefensible when the truth finally outs worldwide.

 

[Clicker]

Head of knitting.

 

[nybear]

Head of giving head and still banned from Ibrox

 

[Numans_Left_Peg]

"Quietly Terrified"

 

[JayDee]

If true, it might help them with their golf coverage.

Keevins at the sunday mail. Spears at the herald. Placemen to try and defend the indefensible when the truth finally outs worldwide.

That’s what initially came in to my head when I read this.

 

[Jan Wyck]

If I was a Herald employee I'd be quietly terrified of the paper closing for good.

 

[Mad John]

"Graham Spiers tells lies" should be a sticky at the top of the page

 

[Deleted member 125]

I know we hate him, but surely even that lot know he has no credibility?

It seems a very strange appointment for a paper dying on it’s arse.

Almost Ratner-esque.

 

[zammo]

It's rumoured he has personal hygiene issues.

Herald staff are chipping in for deodorant, toothpaste and a bidet.

 

[Teddy Casablanca]

Will the last person to leave the building please turn off the lights.

 

[Blue Seafarer]

How is this joke of a journalist still getting decent positions in the industry? Makes a complete mockery of the mainstream media.

No wonder fan media is becoming more prevalent.

During my recent travels to the Mhanks forums to enjoy their pain, several times they claimed that the Herald was a very pro-Rangers tabloid. I think this appointment would prove how utterly ridiculous that notion is.

 

[RoofeIsOnFire]

At least they will be working from home so his body odour shouldnt come through Teams/Zoom for the other half arsed hacks to smell

 

[alex wright]

Brave, forward looking appointment embracing the future challenges ahead. Look forward to an increase in balanced, insightful, thought provoking output.

 

[Cooper-11]

I reckon his first objective, if it’s true, he’s on his way back, is, to call for an “end to the season!!!!”
He‘ll say ” Clubs are not providing correct accommodation to visiting teams Correct protocol is not being observed!!!

He’s a ridiculous individual, Jobby Teeth’s press conference has been pretty much universally attacked and ridiculed by everyone, including Celtic fans.

Speirs says “good on Lennon” and defends him. He still tries to maintain he supported us!

I heard people say he enjoys taking the alternative point of view and the reaction it causes.

Does he really like being so controversial that he’s considered to be an imbecile?

I guess he doesn’t care.

That is just dross that could have been penned by a ten-year-old.

 

[Gio#56]

personally think the likes of him and jackson are now an irrelevance. To be honest dont even click on his articles to see his latest shit.

 

[Jan Wyck]

Chris Jack's jacket on a shoogly nail?

The columns he has submitted in the last couple of weeks wouldn't make it past Stinky the editor.

Is that for a school essay?

 

[LarkfiedLoyalNS]

The guy was irrelevant 12 year ago never mind now.

 

[Amadaeus]

He's toxic.

Every paper he writes for the circulation drops.

 

[makingwaves]

I find it incredible that someone thinks that's a good idea - on wonder Newspapers are dying.

 

[Junior Ganymede]

That’s the deckchairs being cut up on the Titanic

The podcast career's not as rewarding as expected?

 

[Carltonblue]

What a sad level Scottish sports journalism has sunk to. Expect a regular series of half baked ego boosting moralistic editorials from this sad little man, most of them in some way directed against Rangers.

 

[johnnybravo]

%^*& me,
Sort of sums up Scottish newspapers

 

[blue barney]

What a joke, and a sad reflection on the Scottish journalistic scene that there’s no one better to take up such a post.

 

[Hurricane Run]

I assume this is to tick the LGBT box, cause it certainly isn't for his knowledge of sport.

 

[Manfred]

Spiers is a mentally challenged lickspittle, he's 100% on the payroll.

Obviously blocked the Ross Co humiliation out of his mind.

 

[dh1963]

A Head of Sport who has no knowledge of sports.

It would be like making Neil Lennon a Head of Dentistry.

 

[bilkobear]

Who reads The Herald nowadays?
It is a Tim paper for Filth fans.
Sad perhaps, but that is where it is at.
Spiers seems like the most perfect fit possible.

 

[imvaison]

Truly baffult with this.
Going down the tubes anyway but surely the Herald have got a new and improved suicide wish.

 

[Blue_bobster_75]

Ok Graham so as you read these posts! Having good thrash , just remember this. we know the lies you told/written in your pathetic journey in journalism!
We haven’t gone away you know, and our day is coming!

 

[SuperGers07]

Are we sure we haven’t time travelled back to 2001 ?

 

[Careca]

Just in time to trash us on our return to the champions league qualifiers. Phones at uefa hq be red hot come July. Nothing football related though.

 

[middlesexbear]

mentally challenged lickspittle, certainly wont be talking tactics and formations, just rangers bad, celtc good crap.

 

[DechmontLoyal]

How bad must the other applicants have been if the Corduroy Cowboy was the pick of the bunch ?

 

[butchyboy]

Away back to playing the piano in the buff ya raging Womp Rat

 

[Professor Yaffle]

Laughing stock. And smelly. And has very poor knowledge of sport.

 

[bilkobear]

Obviously blocked the Ross Co humiliation out of his mind.

I mistakenly looked at this and got as far as the line about Steven Gerrard being deified.
He really doesn't understand the reasons why Steven Gerrard is all about upward achievement despite the odds being stacked against him and why Lennon is all about falling off the top when everything and everyone was pulling out the stops to prop him up against a backdrop of every advantage going.

For that reason alone Spiers is a clown, never mind the other calumnies he has been guilty off over the years that he has been involved in Scottish football.
Being a prick is one thing, being a dense know nothing arrogant prick is totally beyond the sporting and journalistic pale.

 

[Calvinist]

Spiers knows fuxk all about sports.

He’s a useless c.unt
