Iain Patrick

It was alleged on this forum some time  ago that an official of Fife senior football club Lochgelly Albert was guilty of making comments of a bigoted nature. A poster at the time, namely Bertie Wooster refuted such claims and requested evidence. The screenshot pictured below was duly supplied in the relevant thread and speaks for itself.

Although embarrassed but not offended by the above personally, there understandably are those who are. However despite numerous requests there has been no reply from Bertie or comment from the club who are fully aware of the matter. 

It has now reached the stage whereby we have accepted that no amount of ridicule will force Bertie to return and as far as we are concerned that poster no longer exists. Therefor the thread titled Bertie Wooster is now closed and all Lochgelly Albert related matters will posted in the corresponding thread. 

However we have absolutely no intention of allowing the subject to be swept under the carpet. On the contrary this new thread is intended to show exactly  how serious we are. Merely now putting the ball in Lochgelly and Iain Patrick’s court.

I’ll tell you how serious I am mate. 

Been waiting eagerly on the findings of the case against St Mirren chairman John Needham. He was fined today for the appalling nature of social media comments made towards Rangers fans.  Historic posts on his twitter account as far back as 5 year ago that were described as “not befitting of a person in football leadership” 

He apologised in October for his inappropriate behaviour  after it was brought to the attention of the Hampden bigwigs but was still fined £6,000 today for the discriminatory and offensive comments, bringing the game into disrepute. 

If Iain Patrick and Lochgelly Albert  do not respond in this thread by 9am Monday morning I will have no hesitation in contacting the SFA . This is not a threat but a promise and my last post on the matter in here.

I’ve been so busy lately wasn’t even aware of this case but see in today’s papers the similarities. Only difference I can see is that Needham’s were in 2015 before he became chairman. Perhaps the SFA disciplinary panel took that into consideration and that’s why the fine was so lenient. Or maybe it was because he apologised to those offended. Either way good to see they take such vile behaviour seriously and have set a precedent.

That's fair enough.

I have posted in the original thread where the Sectarian hate speech was spewed by GoDaddy - Bertie Wooster - East Region Junior Leagues - Fife Football Forum

The SFA were informed of Ian Patrick’s behaviour on social media in December. 

There’s nothing in the disciplinary section of the SFA website to suggest it’s being dealt with, will be interesting to see what’s made of it after the punishment handed out to the St Mirren chairman for a similar offence.

oany update oan hoo this is gawn noo

Just like Ian Blackford yesterday in the House of Commons Go Daddy has been thrown out for telling the truth. After an intense back-and-forth with Mr Speaker Jimmy, the Bojo complainers have won the day. The tories inside Purvis Park continue to kick the can down the road while we await the Sue F’n grAy report.

I’ll be back with those findings in due course. Thats if the new administrative head of Fife Yard, commissioner Chong doesn’t intervene. :whistling:

I think it's time to move on! Like a dug with a burst ball. If the club/association haven't acted now then I can't see anything changing.

You my friend are entitled to your opinion. I don’t think you are in a position to judge, considering you aren’t to my knowledge privy to the sinister aspects currently at work behind the scenes. If I’m wrong feel free to enlighten us because until such time as justice is served all attempts to sweep this under the carpet is only fanning the flames.
