windae cleaner Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I don't know anything about the FACTS of what happened. All I know are rumours about something being said regarding Tony's son but I don't tend to indulge in idle gossip unless I am sure of my facts. Is there anyone on here absolutely 100% sure of their facts? I'm not disputing whether something was said or not. I'm simply asking if someone on here actually is in possession of the facts or whether people are shrieking over rumours they are hearing from people other than Tony and Cooper themselves. I'll listen to facts. Anything else is of no consequence. You know fine well nothing will come out to tarnish Cooper I saw something came out by a non Saints fan and he had inside knowledge of this story It was more or less the same version that's been on here It wasn't by a bitter Sellic fan either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyg Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 There we go. First poster asks a perfectly legitimate question. The response is "He's a c**t that's all you basically need to know". And first poster simply accepts that as a given truth without any need for an explanation or proof or anything else. Honestly how do people like this get out of bed safely in the morning. It's a genuine puzzle. I get out of bed safely of a morn in the hope I meet you ! Ivan's dad and I were talking privately at the same time as the posts in question , he's just joined , and he has already come to the conclusion that you're a w@nkmuffin !

nosferatu Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) What the hell are you wittering on about? How can asking a question be a disgraceful comment? Grow up FFS. No, you grow up! Having a chuckle at "The Inbetweeners" is one thing, to act like in real life is another... I suppose its the least we can expect from a lecturer who spent his entire Xmas evening posting on this forum about his work life balance! I also love your logic that if you personally aren't in possession of the facts then "its of no consequence"! This isn't the first time you've defended Cooper's actions and you've also repeatedly defended Old Firm sectarianism in the past. You need to grow up FFS!

You'll have no problem proving either of these claims. Oh no hang on…..you don't believe in proving things before leaping, gazelle-like, to conclusions. You won't find a single post from me defending sectarianism. Go ahead though and have a look. If nothing else, it'll give us peace while you are away.

I'm sure there is a really good reason why I should give a f**k what he thinks because TBH his posting record makes him sound like the sort of simpleton I spent years of my life trying to get away from? Mind you, it's hardly surprising that when his Dad is socialising with the likes of you, that he simply behaves the same way. If my dad was hanging out with a knuckle dragging buffoon I suppose I would have grown up a bit like that too. Love the kid, hate the upbringing.

You sound the same mould as Stuart Dickson seems to dig himself into. If the forum does not come up to your higher educational standards why post here after all football fans come from all different back grounds. I'm sure there is something in Web world to stimulate your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there is something in Web world to stimulate your needs. Tut, tut. Oakie is clearly stimulated by talking down to people whom he perceives to be less intelligent forgetting that intellect and education are not necessarily exclusive. Neither is someone's perception of their own intelligence necessarily an indication that they are superior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish State education let me and hundreds of thousands of other Scots of my generation down. Its quite evident particularly when you look at Oaksofts posts and you realise that this numpty, despite his qualifications, still thinks you solve a house building problem by evicting 5m tenants.

Scotland Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 I used to live in Motherwell a few years ago and worked beside a bluenose who was a Cooper fanatic and had a relative work for the club when Cooper was there. He told me a few 'hilarious' stories about how sectarian and bigoted Cooper was. Giving one specific youngster a really hard time for wearing green and ruining his chances at the club, refusing to talk or shake hands with guys he knew were Catholics, stuff like that.

RickMcD Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 Wonder why the Beeb decided to feature this now. Was it some kind of anniversary of his? He was a strange guy and if what I've heard is true, what he said to Fitzy was bang out of order. I was quite friendly with Colin Jackson back then and he always said that Cooper was a bit weird. He refused to be interviewed because he hated hearing himself afterwards 'because it made him sound so Scottish'. Hell, most of us don't like hearing ourselves. Especially when we talk shit. I do think he was a very good player,though, despite what a few on here have said. If a player like him was around now he would be an automatic selection for Scotland and would be playing in the EPL. I remember an evening game at Ibrox years ago when for the first eighty minutes I could have played better than him and then he destroyed us single handed in the last ten minutes. Bastard! I had no idea he was a religious bigot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish State education let me and hundreds of thousands of other Scots of my generation down. Really? Yet you are so fond of telling us how well you've done for yourself. Very, very fond of telling us. I daresay you could be one of those 'self made' men, right enough, who doesn't owe the world a damn thing. I'm sure we're all relishing you telling us all about that, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt I'll get some rebuttals. My only JFK moment among guys who were still playing was the great Scotland and Spurs player John White.

It's not as if he was Margaret Thatcher or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
