Is right.

I hope the next time Gibbo's out on a bender, he crashes into the fence you so firmly sit on.

Better be driving a JCB though, else your head will total his Nissan.

Can't beat a good internet outrage.


I'll sharpen the pitchforks, can somebody light those torches...

Ah, Chicoazul, the 'teen whisperer'. Truly inside the mind of the young. He knows how they think, what they are and what they are not.

Listen up all under 30s, just pack your bags and shut your mouths, there is no room for your thoughts because Uncle Azul already knows you and your generation. He's been to more obscure Islands in the Bahamas than you've been to Starbucks outlets, after all.

It's okay though, with a lot of fence sitting and avoiding any serious introspection or the follow through of any proper thought, maybe one day you too can be champion of a disgruntled internet forum.

That's part of the problem that he earns big wedge and if you are in the public eye then they self appoint themselves as a some weird fascist jury.

It's not that at all, azul. He's brought shame on the club as well. Had he been at the shoite your opinion would be a tad different, I reckon. He's not exempt from the law - although he'll be able to afford a more lenient type of justice that you & me wouldn't get.

Being at Everton is no mitigation. Makes it worse imo.

I would but you'd only start masturbating.

Are those people so different in the first place? Some fella who gets taken out of education earlier than most to play football and is given a fat wedge to take home every week... I think this is the root of the problem more so than Gibson being inherently evil or something. Not excusing him in any way of what he's done but things like this will continue to happen until we're not giving a normal cross-section of society (who are slightly thicker generally than most) wads of cash and celebrity status!

Also are you implying that despite the act of drink-driving being unforgivable and deserving of the full wrath of the law, and that we should be angry that Gibson has a lot of money to deal with that better than most..... that it's not as bad when some 'working man' does it?

Your 100% correct,under the law they are both guilty to the same degree and will be treated as such.Maybe it's just the fact that someone who has more than enough money to pay for transport home without giving the cost a second thought might be ever so slightly guiltier,or it could just be my prejudice on modern sportsmen who have more money than sense.

 

[Whistlin' Dixie]

Is right. I ain't no "teen whisperer though" you/the Daily Mail will be wanting me hanged for that.

I just want you hanged anyway, for anything. (Metaphorically speaking of course )

I'd be wanting them banned from European competition again. Fair point like.

I've spent about 50 posts talking about Gibson. Look up.

tl;dr: If he's done it, he's a bell, I hope he's binned. Doesn't change the fact that when fit, he was a superb player. Alas he's spent most of his time here injured.

Also, is he defo on £50K? That is eye watering.

how can he be guiltier because he's worth a few quid?


Ridiculous

Not a clever thing to be doing and may be the root cause (booze) of many of his off the field problems but he doesnt deserve to lose his job over it, if it is really such a problem for him i hope that a club as great as ours would try their utmost to help him through it. The legal process will take care of the punishment side, he's a footballer ffs not a paragon of social standards. If it was Rom or Stones how many would be clamouring for them to be sacked??

..the fact that he driven after drinking is one thing, compounded by him hitting somebody and then leaving the scene of the accident. It's a poor reflection of Gibson the man. As for Gibson the footballer, there is a scoreboard of factors that reflect his worth, including performance and injuries. I haven't read the full thread and I'm not sure how long he has on his contract but it might be difficult to sack him without compensation for the remainder.

But then they'd cry "why just us?" and get everyone else banned. two-hats.
