Bullitt Posted December 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 1 hour ago, Brianstorm said: Not a fan of Gordon Sawers but for the BBC to think that on Christmas eve posting that about a fella who's clearly a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic is even remotely acceptable is unbelievable. Deplorable and dehumanising. Horrible article. Tend to agree with you mate. The abuse he gets or songs being sung about him at away games I think are a little tiresome now. Guy clearly cares about this club but doesn't know how to express himself. I hope when he's back he just supports the team with his kids and cuts out the nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme S Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Gordon may or may not have mh issues however I feel it is inappropriate for a "respected" journalist to ridicule a supporter in the way he has done.By all means praise Clarke but to stoop so low as to ridicule GS is out of order IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammy_boy Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) Id like to see them pick out some mental Sevco fan (of which there are many) and see what happens. Sawyers goes off on mad rants. Some of those feckers send out death threats and fake nail bombs. Edited December 24, 2017 by cammy_boy Not backing Sawyers BTW 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KTIDanny85 Posted December 25, 2017 Report Share Posted December 25, 2017 Gordon Sawyers is an arsehole and a waste of space, time and energy. Don't give this guy the attention by talking about him. If u couldn't tell I do not like him. Why not focus on someone who contributes nothing but positivity to the club? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aumgn Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 The reporter is clearly referring to the fact that Sawyers needn't rant any more because we're good now and he's got nothing to greet about, not because he's banned from Rugby Park. Christ almighty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harley Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 His rant online when Hearts beat Celtic was as a Killie fan embarrassing in the extreme. Have a rant about Killie if you want but attending the Gascoigne night & raving & ranting about Celtic getting beat just makes him appear like a bitter Hun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heynow2005 Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 Sawyers was happy with his online celebrity with every new video etc. he enjoyed the attention so I'm sure he'll be more than happy to be the focus of a BBC article. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ almighty. 'Writ' this the other night but didn't want to post in haste ...No one was specifically named in the BBC article (though we all know) and it was making a mockery of our club in the eyes of others. Not sure what is right or wrong but the unnamed 'supporter' wasn't backwards in slagging off people connected with Kilmarnock FC by name. Said/unsaid person brought it all on themself imho. Someone should have had a word. If I'd said what he said about others (in public) I'd expect to be cautioned or even arrested in these politically correct days. Not that I agree that should happen or freedom of speech denied. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the focus of a BBC article, the Killie team is. He's a device through which to humorously discuss our improved performance, being one of the only things associated with us in the outside world in the past year or so. I guess pre-Sawyers the article might have been written with some kinda pie metaphor. Amazing that so many folk get offended about things cos they just cannae read properly, yet genuinely bulls**t statements (PC gone mad!) etc get them in a mouth-frothing rage. Like.......GORDON SAWYERS DOES. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's bad at all and don't see why it's offensive or wrong...my point was he was happy to be online spouting his venom and getting all the attention so no sympathy when he indirectly gets a bit of a ribbing now the team is doing well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogwai Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 I thought it was a good read. Sawers clearly enjoyed his wee bit of celebrity. It would be a bit precious of him and others to be offended at a harmless article. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye the Gnu Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 I must have missed something in this . Thought it was a hugely positive article on Killie, highlighting the massive steps taken by the club. OK it had a wee go at Sawyers, but why the vitriol?. We complain about how little positive stuff is written about us and when someone does, we have a go at him..strange. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullitt Posted December 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 He's not a hun. I couldn't give a hoot if he used to go to Ibrox. He and his kids are Killie fans and spend probably thousands every year supporting our club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
