Thumbheid Kicks Flare Into Crowd After Paedo Chants

[Johnny Quid]

Is that a real statement? Cause it's a fucking joke.

 

[Davie86]

That looks like a bheast club statement. Deflect and blame other people
I guess it's no surprise , two cheeks of the same arse these days those rancid clubs.
I'd expect nothing else from a pair of scum clubs willing to have a paedophile on their books

 

[Its-Sebo]

Straight from the 'separate entity' playbook. Tell an obvious lie and hope their media pals cover for them.

 

[PT98]

Really hope we hammer these bastards on Saturday.

 

[SDF]

Mind that Senator Agsby excuse in Brass Eye ? Yeah, this is that.

 

[eeboh]

Dundee Football Club and Leigh Griffiths would like to address a regrettable incident which occurred during last night’s Premier Sports Cup tie with St. Johnstone at the Kilmac Stadium.

Following the opening goal a smoke generator, amongst other items, was thrown onto the park by the visiting supporters. This pyrotechnic ended up back in the stand as Leigh kicked it to remove it from the field of play.

Leigh said of the incident, “It was regrettable that the pyrotechnic ended up back in the stand as my intention was just to remove it from the pitch.”

“Having just lost a goal I was eager to get the match restarted as quickly as possible and I would like to apologise for any distress caused by this action.”

The club will be making no further comment on this situation

Aye right...

 

[GovanFront4]

"My finger slipped and I inadvertently messaged the child"

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Jail the b@stard.

Let’s hope that the Dundee constabulary will.

 

[ICA_86]

There’s no suggestion that the SFA won’t punish him here, surely?

 

[GraemeButNotMurty]

Most tims despise him now.

I don't want him banned before Saturday, I want the full of our end slaughtering him for 90 mins.

I've seen some give him stick but it's nailed on they'll hold him up like a martyr once he's retired and blames the big bad Rangers - and Hearts - fans for all his woes. They hounded Neil Lennon out of the job in both his managerial stints but still make out like it's only Protestants that give him abuse.

 

[ricksen24]

When Candeias blew the kiss he hoped it ended up in the home fans

 

[Mr Aqua]

Unbelievable, it's like something you'd read in The Daily Mash

 

[rangers for life]

Dundee are fast becoming a cancer ,Police Scotland can if they wish view the video and see if his removing flare from pitch is true,no laughing at the back.

So going out your way to boot/launch a flare into fans is removing a flare from the pitch ,do they think we are buttoned up the back

 

[Trueblue82]

A strong FA and Police force would see the evidence and dismiss that “excuse” straight away however we are dealing with the SPFL and Polis Scotland so I won’t hold my breath

 

[Paisleybear30]

The Police have commented that there's an investigation but no complaints have been made, what will the outcome be I wonder?

No action because nobody formally complained and the SFA will hide behind the police findings as a reason for not bothering to punish him either.

 

[andy17x]

He boots the thing as hard as he can at the stand due to being wound up by the supporters, but he won't admit it, and it's just as bad Dundee won't either.

 

[Lester Piggott]

Aye OK Hot Shot Hamish.

 

[Whitburnbear]

Thats the end of it folks, get used to it

 

[Monty_greenock34]

Unfortunately that'll be the end of the matter.

Utter joke of a league.

 

[Madjid Moments]

Predictable if nothing else!

 

[TCWNS1872]

Dundee really are a scum club

They bear no relation to the Dundee FC that I knew growing up as a wee boy and teenager.

 

[Kirbys House]

Wow.

Dundee should be ashamed putting their name to that.

 

[Baldrick]

 

[dapper dado]

A professional footballer, someone who kicks things for a living, couldn't kick a flare 6 feet and instead blootered it high into the crowd?

That's not even good enough quality for Dundee. If he meant it, sack him for being a terrible human. If he didn't, sack him anyway for being terrible at kicking things.

 

[RFCGTC]

He's been taught well at the Girodome. Liars from cradle to grave.

 

[Mols]

Dirty wee nonce

 

[giogaddi]

What a brass neck. The positive side is it seems Dundee are backing him so he should feature on Saturday.

 

[ICA_86]

That explains his goalscoring record if nothing else.

MEGA LOLZ

 

[btl456]

I know dundee is the home of the beano and dandy, but this is the biggest joke to come out of that city in print yet.

 

[Wordy_Rappinghood]

How are Griffith and Malky McKay not finished?

Scotland is so bloody weird. Can't just blame the the Jonestown SNP lot, it's legitimately beyond explanation.

 

[Coza]

My dundee supporting friends reaction….

‘Christ!!!’

Absolutely bonkers statement.

 

[Bouncebackability]

Obviously a guide in deflection techniques was part of the dealings with the scum for their Zoom trophy.

 

[dh1963]

All that's missing now are statements from Humza and Dornan saying the matter is now closed and anyone criticising Griffiths is an anti Irish racist.

 

[Alex Boyce]

He has a flare for telling some stories!

 

[TwoBadMice]

A fooking smoke generator FFS ha ha what a shower of arseholes

 

[Unicorn]

Nonce sense.

 

[Chryston Bear]

We had just lost a goal,blah,blah,blah,,just wait till Saturday you horrible lady's front bottom!!

 

[LeithGer]

No apology whatsoever, not his fault. For a guy that makes so many “mistakes” it’s never his fault

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

Quite sad to see the folk that have taken over Dundee.

Used to like to see them doing well.

MEGA LOLZ

Hahahahaha, f**king knew it.

Remove it from the pitch? He kicked it hard enough he could have removed it from the stadium.

 

[GazzaG]

Nah fu** that, I want him pounded for 90 minutes +stoppage time, I want him in tears having to be held back by stewards because he’s flipped with the amount of of abuse and he’s trying to jump into the crowd to square go fans, I want him slaughtered that much on Saturday that he decides he has to retire as he can’t handle it anymore.

This has potential to be 100 times better than the time we got Hartson subbed because he'd absolutely lost it.

 

[bluereason]

And he couldn't just flick it five yards to the side of the pitch. Absolutely patronising statement. Dundee should be punished for that statement alone.

 

[Carlton The Bear]

Wow.

Dundee should be ashamed putting their name to that.

John Nelms and shame? Mutually exclusive.

 

[giogaddi]

I'm trying to imagine the outrage if Morelos booted a flare into the crowd and Rangers defended him. There would be calls for him to be suspended for the rest of the season.

 

[Gauche.]

Dundee, I thought it was your near neighbours who wanted to be Tayside sellik?

 

[rangers for life]

Check his hard drive

 

[BBBear]

Deary me …

 

[Spartan]

Wow Dundee now acting like their master club, deflect and deny , there’s no way griffiths escapes a ban for that
