Thinks our support is embarrassing. Thoughts? Maybe a wee loan spell at Brora will make him appreciate Inverness more.

 

 

 

Why?

Because he's a wee bigot .

 

 

Now I'm confused. Are you saying Gorman's 'a wee bigot' or I am?

I was referring to Gorman but if the cap fits .........

Looking on the bright side for Gorman, he'll be made especially welcome when we go to Celtic Park.

So you are implying I'm a bigot?  Please do explain...

Why would Fraz be raging about Gorman being a bigot?

 

Unsurprisingly, Rangers fans are already busy writing their letters of mock outrage.

Some of the comments on that thread are fantastic. Gormans tweet was sheer idiocy but now we're getting a nice smattering of homophobic posts from the Rangers fans. Top stuff.

Aye, it was a stupid/naive thing to say but my god what an overreaction by some people. The constant search by each side of the OF for things to be offended by is embarrassing. He is an ICT youth player for fecks sake, do I follow the tweets of, for example, Partick Thistle youth players to see if they might say something that will 'offend' me? No. No, I don't because quite frankly I couldn't care less about what they have to say. I don't really care about what Joe has to say either to be honest I just follow him because he is a youth player at the team I support. People really need to calm down and get a grip.

Reported to the SFA, presumably by those Rangers fans.

The utter seethe from Sevco fans (no other club's fans strangely enough) is absolutely cringeworthy.  Trying to get the police involved and all sorts.  What a bumbling mess!

I am not excusing the reaction from fans of other clubs but surely any player whether first team or youth teams must get a basic education on the dos and donts of social media when they join the club.

They probably do but telling a silly boy not to be a silly boy doesn't mean he isn't going to be a silly boy. 

Rangers and Celtic fans fall over each other to be offended by things and try and get one up on the "other". 

Officially suspended from ICTFC pending results of investigation.

Everyone deserves the chance to learn from their mistakes and move on. If established, in my view, a fine and a written warning will be sufficient with the player being left in no doubt that any repetition will result in his contract being terminated.

A quick short term Loan over to Barry Briggs in order here me thinks !!

Tell him if he does it again he'll be loaned out to Rangers.

Inverness have suspended youth player Joseph Gorman pending an investigation into alleged Twitter comments.

Chairman Kenny Cameron said the club acted swiftly over the alleged tweet regarding the Orange Order.

"Following a discussion with the player we confirm that he has been suspended by the club pending an internal disciplinary investigation," he added.

"No further comment will be made until those investigations have been concluded."

Unfortunately, it's the way society is going.

If you make stupid comments like that you leave yourself wide open to being hounded and prosecuted. Leave the bigotry to the west coast, we don't need it elsewhere!

Incredibly naïve, especially as they get media education. Don't want us to be associated with that kind of publicity. It'll be a hard lesson for him to learn - potentially career-ending, not to mention putting his personal safety at risk. Plonker!

Still waiting for that explanation DC.

I thought you were one of the Union Jack brigade , apologies if I've got the wrong person .

He is. Here is a picture of Fraz's bedroom 

 

I'm not going to ask why you have a picture of his bedroom !

It's easy to find on Google.

To the best of my knowledge I've never had possession of a Union Jack. Though Rangers were my 'big team' as a teen, no secret, the likes of ICTCHRIS knew me back then. But like many silly teen infatuations I grew out of it when I began to know better. Be hard pushed to be a bigot given I've a Catholic father and a Protestant mother.

 

Anyway thanks, apology kindly accepted.
