Aleksandar Tonev

Regardless of their being evidence proving him innocent, it's a scandal he's is being labelled a racist without any evidence.

 

No. Missed that.

 

It may be your personal opinion but you have just done what the SFA have done...accused someone because they "more than likely" said it. Where is the evidence? Or is that not necessary just because he's Bulgarian and that you do not like him?

You said it right there in case you missed it.

Every nation on earth has people who have a tendency to be racist, but just because a person comes from a nation of people who have had a "tendency to be racist in the past" doesn't mean he should be convicted today of being a racist with no evidence. The deep south in America had a "tendency" for it in the past...does that mean they all still are now? As for the bolded part...you've just reinforced the points other people, and myself, have made.

I notice you ignored the part of me saying what if it were another Bulgarian player we had...Petrov.

 

You act as if I said every Bulgarian is racist, could you quote where I said that? I said there is a strong tendency for Eastern Europeans to be so, not sure how that can be denied? He's a * horrible player and has brought a shadow over the club I love so he can get to * as far I'm concerned.

I believe he's guilty, I'm not going to defend some pish on-loan Aston Villa player when I think there's a better chance he said it than he didn't. Not like we're defending some Celtic legend, just some lacklustre journeyman who couldn't give a flying * about Celtic and rejected Champions League Football with us 12 months earlier. He should never play for us again.

 

* * this thread...

Of course Logan will come across better than Tonev as English is not Tonev's first language...

Balance of probabilities tho.. Much lower threshold than behond reasonable doubt.. However I would argue that the SFA/SPL are not balanced..

This should be taken to all the way by the club, they have no other choice..

 

I started this :smiley-laughing002: (.)

I apologise to anyone who actually wants to post about Tonev.

..

 

I quoted the statement before but here it is once again....

You have accused Bulgarians - and Eastern Europeans - of being racist with that statement. Once again, it doesn't matter whether he's a "horrible player" or not...he's been punished without evidence.

OK so there we have it. Just because he's an Aston Villa man that you don't rate at all, he "more than likely said it" and can get to *, but if it were a Bulgarian like Petrov that was in this exact same situation, you would defend him to the hilt?

Double standards everywhere there.

 

Oh dear

If he said it he deserves everything he gets, but how the * can such pathetic evidence be used, it's basically one guy's word against another is it not? If 2 or 3 Aberdeen players had heard him say it I think the majority of us would be on here demanding Celtic kick him out.

Just because Logan comes across well doesn't mean he couldn't have mis-heard or be full of * for that matter. I consider myself reasonably articulate at work, so if I go to HR and make up a story that someone with a lesser grasp of the language called me a * *, with no witnesses, would they simply fire him for it?

Would they *!

Complete bullshit and a typical SPFL shambles, if we go to the court of arbitration I'm confident we'll win.

 

Terminate his contract

Regardless of the situation.

He's * *

 

Tonev must have heard the word '*' loads in football..

As in..

'* pass ya greedy *!'

 

I don't think he is a good player but he isn't as greedy as what he is made out to be

 

I'd always imagined as soon as he gets the ball all he hears is 'shoot ya *'.

 

I reckon he hears "ffs tonev pass" a lot in training

 

Aye maybe he hears in his heid 'Shoot ya rapid Bulgarian *' he is a racialist after all..

 

Tonev has shown a little more promise in his last couple of games. We should persevere.

 

Aye, he's finally hitting the top tier with his shots instead of the car park now

 

Take note!
