Frazzie Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I was tempted to post something similar but didn't want to open a can of worms. I agree. If he was alive, we wouldn't be posting a happy birthday message. Get a grip, folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NealeMFC Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Absolutely nothing wrong with someone remembering a legend who passed away far too early. I for one was pleased to hear it was his birthday. Hope the games still going well up above for Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho1991 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Is there really any need for this? You say RIP but is this really letting him RIP? See if you thought there was no need for this why did you open it and feel the need to comment? What is wrong with people paying respects and others abstaining and remembering in other ways. So stop being a fanny and just don't open the fucking thread if you don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamy Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 It's just strange that in in a similar Contribution made no comment. I guess I take it the same way. I'll post whereever i want and what I like. So that everyone should be happy and no one has to get upset. I also do not. Just my 2 Cents and as they say here: Nichts fuer ungut.

rab_mackinnon Posted March 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I'm with Geedub. Ripping the arse right out of it. Very mixed feelings about this thread phil is held in the highest regard by well fans and beyond. I never meant to cause any offence by it i was just showing my respects as for frazzle and geedub regardless of your opinions what gives you the right to chastize any one from doing this. The two of you should be utterly ashamed of yourselfs if you have anything to say to me about this pm me this thread was a method of paying respects to a motherwell legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onthefringes Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Another outgoing of grief... what next, an obituary page? C'mon admin you know it makes sense. Not wanting to sully memories of which there are many, but, celebrate his day of birth when he played for us did you? I thought not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, just so I'm clear - you can dictate whatever you like in my direction, but I'm not allowed to give my opinion on something you've posted? Nobody is questioning how high a regard Phil O'Donnell should be held in - I just don't think it helps his young widow or children to have his every birthday trumpetted about on here. I'm sure the people who matter hadn't forgotten. The outpouring of public grief was fitting and natural at the time, given his high regard and the shock, but continually dirging it up again is (in my opinion) in very poor taste and should be left alone.

Yabba's Turd Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 This seems to have run it's course. Falkirk at home on Saturday, not to start any conspiracies but Paw did give Elvis his 1st cap.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
