Guys, after spending all day on the bus with Mr Miller and his family, I found them to be decent, honest Well fans looking forward to a good game of football and nice day out like the rest of us. I cannot tell you how disgusted I was at the action of these clowns - drunk or otherwise - there's NO excuse for their actions!!! Shame on them. Big disgrace!!
I went to visit Mr Miller yesterday and his wee face is black and blue ear to ear! What a mess, I could have cried when I saw him, I was so ashamed that this happened to him on a Well trip. He's just lost his wife, has been ill for sometime and had been looking forward to the game. The poor wee soul told me he was embarassed and didny want any fuss. Obviously, I assured him that we were all embarassed that this had been allowed to happen to him, he's nothing to be embarassed for, nothing to be ashamed off!!! If I had met these idiots after I left that wee man yesterday, I'd have rung their scrawny necks!!!!
The Club have invited Mr Miller to dinner with the former players at a match of his choice next season and will keep in touch with the family to let them know what further action is taken and absolutely guarantee to help Mr Miller in any way we can throughout his recovery. Support Mr Miller to support the Well.
A meeting was held yesterday between the Club and representatives of the Supporters Association and all the facts have been gathered. Thanks to them for the way they handled the situation and for the information they provided. Thanks too to Dougie Arnott who was the first man at Mr Miller's door when he heard what had happened. We tried to convince Mr Miller to press charges but he said he just hoped the Welsh police "put the fear of God in them" and they'd get a fright. Can I just say if the Welsh police didny manage to put the fear o' God in them, I'm quite sure there's plently that will...(obviously these are my personal feelings...)
When I left Mr Miller's, he was okay physically but what kind of damage has been done to this wee man's confidence? I an positive that all true Well fans will join me in the condemnation of the offenders and ensure that this never happens again.
Get Super Well super soon Mr Miller!
