It seems that since The Sun coined that phrase, everything to do with us is going to be a variation on that. Anyway, page 7 of today's paper (Early Morning Edition) has a story of how Tokely and Sandy Grant had a "verbal altercation" in the Heathmount Hotel on Sunday, and they had to be seperated by Charlie and Bennett. Am going to type up the article just now.
Wasn't sure where to put it, so placed it here since it is to do with Rossco, if you feel it goes someone else then just moved it :)
Soccer star Ross Tokely was last night accused of sparking a brawl - with one of the clubs sponsers. The Inverness Caley Thistle defender had to be hauled off finacial advisor Sandy Grant during a night out at a hotel.
Club manager Charlie Christie and director of football Graeme Bennett were forced to seperate the pair and lead Tokely, 27, away. Grant and the burly 6ft 2in player had been drinking with other team officials on Sunday evening, the day after Celtic thrashed their side 3-0.
One stunned onlooker at Inverness' Heathmouth Hotel said "It was startling stuff - not something you expect between people associated with the same team. Tokely and Sandy Grant just started shouting and pushing and shoving each other.
"It would have been nasty if it had come to blows. But thankfully Charlie and Graeme could see what was going on and came and told them to ease up before grabbing Tokely out of there. He was pretty irate. People in the bar were amazed as they saw him being led out. We don't know what kicked it off.
"Possibly something was said about Tokely's performance against Celtic. Whatever the reason, Tokely had to be taken out. His girlfriend then came back in shouting she was going to get the police. It's not what people expect when they go out to enjoy a quiet Sunday evening meal at a respectable restaurant."
A club insider said there had been a row about coaching, but added: "It didn't warrant such a reaction from Tokely. He had to be held off."
Last night, Tokely refused to comment on the claims. Charlie Christie said: "It was a verbal altercation that took place. I was there and I witnessed it. It was calmed down pretty quickly. There were raised voices and Graeme and myself went over to tell them to settle down and keep the noise down."
Now, it's a shame about this, because I thought that Tokely had a rather good game and kept the Celtic wingers tame most of the game. Also, with the problems that his ex-wife comes out with, it isn't going to help the opinion of him. Shame really.
