According to the BBC gossip column, Dundee have sent a £200 bill to Terry Butcher to cover  the damage he caused after smashing a hole in the plexi glass with his fist in the dugout.

 

If I were him I'd got tell them to f*ck off. Anyone else feel that was a bit harsh from Dundee and also TB for smashing the glass in the first place?!

#inverness boss Terry Butcher has been served with a notice of complaint by the SFA for breaking the dugout at Dens Park last week.

 

 

I blame all the people moaning about it on here!

football banning order?

I don't recall Neil Lennon getting the same treatment when he smashed them water bottles.

the fact is im sure many people have hit it and he is just the unlucky person who broke it 

Its all my fault

Aye right.

 

FFS, the man hit it in a fit of frustration, no big deal, but nobody to blame but himself.  Story ends here surely.

While passion is a good thing, I agree with others that Butcher needs to curb his temper (it's not the first time he's broken stuff, there's a whole chapter in his book dedicated to it!) and keep his anger under control.

 

In saying that though, he apologised for it and said he'd pay for the damage right after it happened.  Seems a bit much the SFA are coming after almost a week later!

Don't recall jim jefferies getting the same treatment after breaking the away dugout a couple years ago...

Putting his fist through a dugout, kicking in a door during his Ibrox days! Just proves what a hard man we have at our helm!

 

Terry Butcher is the footie equivalent of Chuck Norris!!

This is something that has clearly not got enough exposure and I'm glad to see a second thread dedicated to the subject.  Without it we'd have had nothing else to talk about this week!!!

Lookout, sarcasm polis about

Anyone would think he was the first manager ever to be called in front of the SFA beaks for a moment of stupidity

The night before the biggest highland derby ever and on the verge of securing top 6 and this is all we are discussing?

The games just a mere formality girl.

Do you actually think he is depressed about it?

 

Stuff and nonsense on the part of the beaks. I

 

If they spent more of their time in attempting to IMPROVE Scottish Football and less time putting down the passionate participants in

the game we would all be better off IMHO.

 

For example,  the contentious issue of the placing of cameras on the goal line, which is simply a no-brainer to anyone with common sense, is now delayed for another year or so whilst they offer excuses only for non - action.

 

Neanderthals with nothing better to do than dump on Terry. who can't fight back without incurring another fine presumably.

 

OMG  

Goldenballs Beckham    

 

Thank goodness an official at the club cares enough to smash SOMETHING on occasion. That doesn't make him evil fer goodness sake...just a character and a passionate one.

 

Of course if we change managers for robots then we will have brilliant decisions, always right, but no smashed doors or Perspex and no customers because all the passion and humanity will have been removed from the game.

 

And he was wearing gloves and came to no harm  so....face it--who cares. He will pay for the damage and we can move on.

.Whew!! That was SOOOOOOOOO scary.

 

did anyone ever think that he did it on purpose just to get people talking about us  

Maybe he just wanted a better view of the goal we were attacking.

I bet it was the cheapest of perspex anyway with the lowest of safety ratings, I cant see anyone from Dundee throwing coins higher than the value of 1p so it was probably strength tested to that. So far he hasn't managed to break the stuff at home, so their stuff must be substandard.

Sorry guy's hadn't seen the other thread on this,please feel free to merge .......

merged

Now that Ive seen the damage, if he can do that Im assuming with his fist I bet Adams is glad he shot down the tunnel yesterday

at end of game as I would hate to see what kind of mess his face  would be in today . That said maybe would improve it.

Dont agree with vandalism but frustration can make people do strange things......Just pay up Terry and move on and maybe get

yourself a wee stressball !!!!!
