insaintee Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 You think a mildly sexist joke between friends is the same as racism and anti semitism in work place communication? How do you think we should deal with bigots like Mackay? Sweep it under the carpet? His a bit big to go under a carpet. Wait that one on them euphamism thingys aint it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemp Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 The man appears to be a Grade A wanker. I notice at least one his former players has come out and listed a whole load of racist abuse he got at training. Thankfully I don't think we will need to worry about seeing this piece of shit again anywhere in British football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieinEK Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 From BBC News: The LMA says the club searched more than 10,000 private text messages and found two from Mackay that were "with the benefit of hindsight, very regrettable and disrespectful of other cultures". "These were two text messages sent in private at a time Malky felt under great pressure and when he was letting off steam to a friend during some friendly text message banter," added the statement. "The LMA does not condone in any way any potential breach of equal opportunities laws but would also point out that out of over 10,000 text messages and 70,000 documents produced over a long period of time it may not be a complete surprise that some inappropriate comments can sometimes be made by employees, like Malky, working under great pressure in highly charged situations." 10,000 PRIVATE text messages searched by the club! Personally, I find that just as disturbing as the allegations!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeBud Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 You think a mildly sexist joke between friends is the same as racism and anti semitism in work place communication? How do you think we should deal with bigots like Mackay? Sweep it under the carpet? I have said all through this thread that if he's guilty he should be dealt with accordingly by the relevant people, I just don't feel the need to apply labels to people and to claim that I am better than them, I don't see myself as better than anybody else. I have done plenty wrong in my life and don't feel superior enough to judge other people from a position of "holier than thou". I do remember a term "90 minute bigot" that applied to the old firm supporters who claimed they only sang sectarian and terrorist songs at the football, I see a certain symmetry in your "it's just banter between friends argument" versus comments made in the workplace. If a comment is wrong (and this is using your standards for what remarks are wrong) then it's wrong no matter the company. Good news for Mr MacKay is that the texts appear to be private and by your very own high standards that's OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TPAFKATS Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Lawyers get a search warrant for ex employees home was a bigger surprise to me than a football manager being selfish, racist or homophobic in texts.The leaking of these texts (which seem unrelated to the warrant?) to the press is of no surprise.
