beyond our ken Posted June 21, 2023 Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 He was my tech teacher when i was there and there really wasn't any real indication that I saw, apart from the occasional rumour that he was a "poof" (in the parlance of the day). I knew he was involved in youth football and he seemed pretty popular. I'm glad he was caught and my heart goes out to his victims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was indeed, I used to see him regularly at the racecourse when I played Amatuer, He was my woodwork teacher at St Aelreds, he was always a bit of a joke figure in the school, I remember he punched me in the side of the ribs because I was sawing a workbench..😂, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please keep your sanctimonious pish to yourself on a football forum. It would have been very hard for the head teacher to not have at least concerns.
