McBurnie In away end

All advertisments are hidden for logged in members, why not log in/register?

Lowest form of sanction from the FA. As a first offence you wouldn't have expected anything different. He's on the FA's radar now though and will have to be careful in future. His mate needs reminding that its not doing him any favours posting incriminating video's on twitter.

As usual the media whipped up a campaign following a minor indiscretion causing the FA to have to be seen to take action. Amusing seeing the different levels of coverage depending on which camp you are in. They really don't like Mcb in Scotland referring to players of non league teams being sacked for similar offences and the headlines now read he has "escaped punishment".

Daily Fail will be gutted at the little knuckle rap and will no doubt be trawling through social media for the next few occasions he goes out for a juicy story. The Stir prints a story saying he's done nothing wrong wearing daft clothes and supporting Swansea but fail to make any reference to the obscene gesture that has got him into trouble. Daily Star are still concentrating on the porn star :D.
 

Hope all these do gooders don’t sit too close to the pitch. They’d go home in tears if they heard some of the language that footballers come out with.

Give me strength!
It's nothing to do with being a 'do gooder' as you put it. It's about someone who's in the public eye (globally as we're in the PL!) who thinks it's ok to hang about with and act like a complete chav!
As for swearing, I can swear with the best if them, but at least I know how to behave in public and not make a complete twat of myself!
What's the old saying that you can't buy class? 🤨 But in his case it's simply a lack of common sense also!

That’s why I don’t go to matches. Overly passionate and end up looking a mentalist, especially when in the family area.
 
Why is he a loose cannon?
He denies drink driving
Obscene gestures (course you've never made the wanker sign)
Average he was head and shoulders best forward v Wet Spam.

The lad is 23 he's out with his mates probably had a drink is he not allowed, okay moderate behaviour a wee bit possibly but society today is full of girlie doo gooders. What he's doing is tame to what I imagine most 23 year olds do at a game, and definitely tame to what we did at that age.

I don't imagine saying Oli you can't watch Swansea no more I'm putting you in a monastery after every game, that way people cannot jump to silly conclusions about you on saying that wish he didn't dress like a Happy Monday's reject.
I don’t get it. If it wasn’t for their keepers blunder i wouldn’t of had McBurnie scoring.
I’ll admit 2nd half he put him self around a bit but nothing like he’d score.
I don’t know if Im picking him out because of the money we paid but I’m just not impressed. The only thing I like about him is that porn star following him. She well naughty.

You do know what a 'chav' as you so eloquently put it is, don't you? As far as I can see, 'chav's' are hardly in a position to be wearing stone island.

As far as I can see he's not done anything that the majority of football fans up and down the country don't do every single week. What he's done is not even in the same league as what many, and sometimes far more famous footballers, have got up to.

I've no problem if people think he needs a quiet word in the ear, but its clear people on here are letting their anti-McBurnie agenda cloud their judgement. I notice no one has called Henderson out for his tweet giving the thumbs up to VAR after the game on Friday (not that they should btw). Is that not equally as un-classy?

Plenty of West Ham have on Twitter also starting all that nonce business again

So you don't think he's done anything wrong and it's acceptable as someone in the public eye (globally) and as a role model (which all professional footballers are) to act as he is? 🤨

Footballers are not role models though are they? Just because they are famous doesnt automatically make them a role model. Pete Doherty is famous but I'm not gunna encourage my kids to be like him am I?

That son I know nothing about (porn queen) I do agree he needs to grow a wee bit but as I said he's a chabbie, I also know what you mean over money spent I just wish he'd dress properly.
 
Vardy’s done worse. It’s a poorly kept secret that he’s a twat. I’m guessing no one who’s had a go at McB would entertain having Vardy at our club, pissed up in a casino shouting ‘oy, Jap’.
 

Apologies if already posted, but an extract from a piece on the Athletic today gives a bit more insight as to why he likes to go back to watch them:

I ask him for a quick word. “You know what I’m like. I get carried away,” McBurnie says, smiling. “But I’m watching some of my mates playing footie on a big stage in a big game. I get excited by that. And I just love football.”

McBurnie made only 62 appearances for Swansea before leaving for Sheffield United but he has become something of a cult figure for the Welsh club. He was also in the away end to watch Swansea win at Queens Park Rangers earlier in the season.

“I just think about how good the fans were with me ever since day one when I was here, and the way they took to me is something that me and my family will never forget,” McBurnie says. “And I’ve still got some of my best friends that play for the club so whenever I can, I like to get down to the big games.”

Deep down, you sense that he wishes he was out there today. “I think that’s probably my main regret from being at Swansea, that I never got to play in a South Wales derby,” he adds. “It’s a massive game. I went to the home game and now I’ve been in the away end here. It’s something that I would have loved to have taken part in when I was playing for Swansea. But maybe one day.”

I mention to McBurnie that there are “unconfirmed reports” on social media that he paid for 300 pints downstairs earlier. He laughs. “Not today. At QPR (in August), I think I bought 100. I got as many as they would give me. But today, I’ve not been to the bar once. Honestly. I’m staying away, keeping my head down, keeping under the radar. You know me…

Just a pity that some Sheffield United fans couldn't take to him from day one and choose to moan at everything he does. What a fine set of supporters put to shame by Swansea fans ...................fucking Swansea
 
So you don't think he's done anything wrong and it's acceptable as someone in the public eye (globally) and as a role model (which all professional footballers are) to act as he is? 🤨

Have footballers ever been role models? I can only think of maybe Harry Kane who is anything approaching clean enough to be considered a role model currently.

How many high profile footballers from England's top clubs, of the potential role model variety, have come out and talked about how they've struggled with alcoholism, or gambling, or drug addiction?

How many have a reputation as abusive to their spouse, how many have been done for GBH in a nightclub? How many autobiographies are there from former pros documenting a lifestyle no-one should wish their kids to emulate.

They're normal people with issues, if your only desire is to earn lots of money then maybe they'd be a role model, but otherwise I'd point kids in the direction of astronauts and doctors etc and leave footballers to it.
 
to all those with the criticism's and agenda's please say your piece, but my simple reply to it all ............."and" !!!!!!
utter baloney
 

Over 28k at Cardiff and Sky just happen to pick Ollie out what a truly shithouse organisation they are, I'm more bothered about his dress sense than owt looks a right nana.
