OLLIE MCBURNIE

[Dougie]

If he gets off there will be little mention, but, if he’s found guilty it will be first slot ont news at 10. Media only want to report negative news (thank you social media).

Yes, it’s almost as if ‘man commits crime’ is a bigger story than ‘man doesn’t commit crime’, which is sort of what is expected from all of us really

I’d say the OJ Simpson case rather disproves that theory.

Not that it has much to do with anything, but I was on OJ Simpson's street, on the day the murders happened. We were driving round looking at one of those maps of the stars street guides, doing a tour of celeb houses, or in some cases, the gates, perimeter walls and security systems of celeb houses. I remember Shannon Doherty who was in Beverly Hills 90210 at the time having a little house where you could have parked up and knocked on the front door and Phil Colins having the biggest gate and perimeter wall going (the things you remember eh). The OJ Simson thing was all there was on every tv channel for the next week we were there, we didn't realise at the time how big a star he was, we just thought it was that guy from Naked Gun, it was only later on we realised that it was the American equivalent of David Beckham committing, or not committing murder, at the time. In all of that Newbury Blade I wonder how many people actually know who OJ Simpson is, as believe it or not, it was 28 years ago, and happened 2 years before Ollie Mc was even born, I'm proper feeling my age now!!

Let's face it it's a gamble either way, do the club offer him a contract and hope, or do they let him go on a free, or much reduced fee?

NDiaye's personal ambition has to be taken in to account in all this. I can't see him being happy sitting on bench in prem, I think he'd want to be assured of a decent amount of minutes. Anel recently said he had multiple offers before choosing to come to us, I think the prospect of coming in and starting was a factor for him. What ever happens I can't wish NDiaye enough luck for future

I doubt that pleading you are just a bit dense will be a reasonable defence in a court of law

Talking about being dense I remember Ched in court saying something like (paraphrasing a bit)

"Why would I need to rape anyone? When I go to night clubs I have loads of attractive girls throwing themselves at me and
being a famous footballer can easily have sex with whoever I want"

When I heard that report on the radio I thought, oh dear....the jury won't take too kindly to that kind of arrogance.
Appreciate it might be the truth but it's doesn't show him in a good light to the jury.

Also it shows he believes he can sleep with whoever he wants, which is what he was being accused of

 

[The Crab]

To be fair, and to McBurnies own admission, he’s been dogshit for far too long. People have rightly criticised him (some more harshly and over the top than others), but anyone criticising him now very clearly have an agenda.

Lads on fire. Long may it continue.

I was amongst his critics I'll admit. I'll also admit he's absolutely turned it round and deserves a lot of credit for that...

 

[Dougie]

Not really. If he’d have been found guilty it’d have been a much bigger story

What « sleeping » ?

[Champagneblade]

Get that contract extended. Penny seems to have dropped and he seems happy.

 

[JJBlade]

Delighted for him and for us. But don't feel ashamed for past criticisms.UTB

And you shouldn't be ashamed.
Contrary to popular belief on here, fans aren't as thick as pigshit. They can recognise shirking when they see it.
And it doesn't make them a lesser fan when they slag off players that can't be bothered

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

What « sleeping » ?

if you're lucky, it's what happens after « heavy petting »

Think that's illegal outside some american states.

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Still behind Dykes for the Scotland squad or they just hate him. No loss Oli

Just me l, as it turns out .

Emphatically hasn’t gone from “wank” ( horses mouth not mine) to the best CF in the division and MOM more often that not in the eyes of many !

Gladly accept performance levels have improved. No denying that. Contributing positively to an extent !
