It obviously doesn’t embarrass them to post it in the first instance though. I am up for people needing to register for any form of social media formally. Maybe using passport numbers. I think this would put a stop to it or at least make it easy to track these gutless cowards down. it also might help if his daughter put it on a private account instead of public with messages open from anyone which it is. I think you'll probably get some criticism for this post. She shouldn't have to, if she so desires. Im sure you didnt mean it to but this does read a bit like suggesting a victim of abuse should pipe down a bit as not to cause a scene.

People should be free to use social media how they like, not how you want them to. They can be as private as they wish, and if they're not it's not their fault, it's the fault of the people abusing them. And if they choose not to pursue the matter, it's their decision, nothing to do with you, no matter how much it wateres you off. i just think that GC should be telling his kids to stay safe online following it. She’s more than welcome to do what she wants but surely to stop it you’d have a private account. Nothing against her or GC AF but it’s disgusting what these trolls are doing. I agree that we should have passports or some form of ID to prevent it.

Sorry pal!

Sorry pal! Interesting point. Depends how old his daughter is. I told my little sister when she was growing up in her early teens to put everything on private because you never know what weirdos (or in this case annoyed gasheads) are out there. But as she grew up she gradually made more stuff for public use, not her why but I guess it’s for the point of social media, promoting yourself for people who don’t know who you are? :S Regardless, only agree with points about abusing anyone online is just ridiculous and I honestly can’t believe anyone’s life revolves around rovers that much that it means going after kids online.

I just find that deplorable, and there are idiots on the FB page glorifying it, and saying that singing that song was their favourite part of the day. Quite right to make it a hostile and intimidating atmosphere for MT, and have a bit of fun with the plastic snakes, but some people went way beyond that. I'm beginning to think that maybe this club is not for me anymore. With respect you would find chanting like that whichever club you go to, I would gently suggest that if you are looking for a club where this sort of thing doesn’t happen then you might have to switch games and go and watch rugby or something but even then I suspect you still might hear stuff you wish you hadn’t. It’s an odd thing about football that people get the idea of “our fans aren’t like that” when no fan base is inherently special, when you get thousands of people together a small percentage are going to be idiots, that’s just human nature, unfortunately. I've been watching live football since the mid 1970's so have seen and heard plenty of nasty stuff. It was the fact that some people thought it was ok to sing that song when we'd just shown respect for an ex-player who had passed away As for watching rugby instead, I'd rather gouge my eyes out with th blunt end of a knitting needle.

Apologies if it's been on here already.. But said in his post match interview that his daughter was abused on social media by I'm guessing twat "gasheads". What a bunch of tossers some of our "fans" are. Disgusting! That is rank. I’m not for vigilante justice but they should be named and shamed. UTG!

Someone on FB has posted a full page article on the abuse of GC’s daughter from today’s Sun. I have to say, if I was reading the same about another club I’d be thinking the fan base were a bunch of scumbags.

I’m sure we can get to the bottom of who it is! I don’t have an insta account, only twitter tho! Come on gasheads, let’s get to the bottom of who it was and hand it over to the club to deal with! I’d ban em for life personally and tell them they are never welcome back home or away!

A number of Gasheads on the fans facebook appreciation site have been upset about Gc's comments regarding the glasgow rangers player. Anti irish/catholic and anti celtic comments. Appears to be a small group of fans who want him gone...

Can't believe anyone has bothered to go to the trouble of getting outraged about that.

Maybe the chant was a bit out of place. But at the end of the day it was just a joke- a bad one. But that’s what football is about, the pc brigade won’t stop until they have sucked the life out of the world. I don’t agree the chant but I don’t really care either, it was just a tonge in cheek song. Agogo was my favrouite player as a kid and I mainly attended the game today to honour him. Exactly this don’t the knowle westers sing about smashing a gasheads face in with a brick? Or something along those lines.

I dont understand this.
If its a tweet from a disgruntled fan then he/she should be easy to identify, esp with any friends that they follow and v.v and presumably the will apologise pretty quickly and we can move on.
Has anybody seen the tweet, as I cannot find anything

I have have a soft spot for Partick Thistle for the very reason how pathetic the old firm derby is.
