Quoted from 123614

I'll be very surprised if this guy ends up here at GTFC.  I would think he is the kind of guy we DO NOT need!

I would normally agree, but he was a lad, on a lads holiday....

What he did was wrong, but he's not exactly a trouble maker within a club

If we exclude everyone who acted like a buffoon when they were 20 then we'll be fishing in a very small pond.

Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God

That's as tinpot as you get....
A player and vice chairman on social media arguing  

As opposed to players and the non chairman spending all their time reading a fans forum and then arguing with fans on it even when they sold the club...

This guy sounds like a horrible little twit we should sign him right now. Could use a couple of ruthless and nasty players who will do anything to win.

I think this is naivety and/or ‘being a male private’ of the highest degree. But, each and everyone of us (am pretty sure) did some ridiculously immature sh1t when we were 18/19/20.

If it was GBH, assault etc then that’s a different kettle of fish and not as forgiving.

The young lads suddenly have a windfall of money that clubs throw at them without any clear education or guidance on what to do with it. They will see established players with the £200k cars and want the same

Think we need to be more concerned with that pitiful attempt at a moustache than some daft bragging on Snapchat.

If Paul Hurst signs a player who a few years ago told Coventry fans he was leaving (he wasn't, but they sacked him anyway) whilst talking about his 'heavy' pockets and taking drugs on camera, then this excuse that he misses out on signings because he'll 'only sign the right characters' is blown right out of the water.

In fact, some people on here are going to be really struggling to come up with reasons as to why we haven't signed a striker yet if this idiot gets a shirt.

Wouldn’t exactly call snus ‘taking drugs’. It’s tobacco.

I think it's plainly obvious to anybody watching that video that he's high. Coventry saw enough to sack him, not sure how anybody could defend bringing him in.

Not only that but he's now called a club he's contracted at to tell them he's not bothering coming back. If we didn't make such a deal about only signing good characters I'd get it, but this guy is quite blatantly a bad apple

Quite a histrionic reaction to Stourbridge's chairman saying he'd phoned them from 'the Grimsby'. Maybe worth waiting for more to happen before clutching your pearls as it sounds like him and Gibson were both offered a trial somewhere and we're hardly going to be having a look at the latter are we?

FWIW, i didn't rate Gibson and i think the decision to give him a 3yr contract is up there with Serge Makofo gate - not to mention how daft he was having the party and broadcasting it on social media.

BUT, i don't really blame him for seizing an opportunity to get back in the league (if what has been reported is to be believed), and earn himself a full time wage playing football. It's a short career.
