I'm sure it was Graham Spiers that got stuck into The Record (and in particular) for their need to run a daily Amoruso story.
Might not be a popular opinion on here but I like Spiers.

He takes his son to RP for every home game. He was loving it when we beat the huns at Christmas. He just sits with normal punters and pays his way in.

Wee boy sits there in his Killie shirt. He lives in a farmhouse just outside Dunlop so it's his closest team.
When did he start attending Killie games, was it when his 1st team died?

I quite like him too, seems honest enough and I don’t think he gets dragged into any of the level5 crap.
Didn't realise he was a Killie fan: seen him a few times at CP with his sons wearing celtic scarves, most recent was against St Johnstone last year.

Is that the same Spiers who defended Regan and Donkey to the hilt in 2012 and who has consistently refused to investigate any of the shenanigans despite having pretty much all the evidence laid on a plate for him?

His prose may be of a higher standard but he’s as culpable as every other journalist in the Sevconian saga.

Nah he had the gonads to pull up Der Hun about signing against Catholics (radio & TV) etc and then went onto say it put him off supporting Rangers (rip) after being brought up Hun.

They froth at the mouth about him now as he is not well liked amongst Orc's because of his chat.

Certainly made one or two errors in his career but all in all a Scottish journalist who is not scared to speak up as he has proven.

That is against the grain in Scotland in journalism circles so he has some backbone plus his taking his boy to his local and new club is a good sign he is over Hun Syndrome.

Do you think he'll stay for another year? I'd completely welcome that as any improvement in the league is a positive.

However, I don't think he'd be able to maintain this standard and he probably knows that, for that reason I reckon a top 15 Championship club will beckon...
He's signed a 2.5 year deal and has been pretty heavily involved in the restructuring of the club (training ground plans etc) and from what I hear has guys on pre contacts for next season so I'm hopefully he'll see out until next season at least.

He said when he signed it was a 3 year project. I think ultimately he'll end up at Celtic after Rodgers leaves.

All ifs and buts, but that's my gut feel.
That's really encouraging to hear. Hopefully he stays and maintains his current level. :thumbsup:

What a load of rubbish.

I followed on that link and saw that they've got a 12 man Player of the year shortlist and so expected to see Scott Brown on there. Nope, no sirree. No Broony!!! How stupid are they when they don't see that he's been the best player in the league this season???

Think it was mentioned on here a few weeks ago perhaps after the Express takeover. Don't think it's any kind of secret where 'sources' are required.

Just read that John James site for probably about the third time. Up there with the Rochdale Herald or Inverclyde Independent.

Speirs speaks with the courage of his convictions, he's not a troll or looking to get a rise out of anyone.

I've disagreed with him over the years but generally one of the only journalists I'd read if a link was put up on my most trusted KDS site :boxer:
