Just this morning I had written about Graeme Souness’s incredible comments regarding the abuse that James McClean receives at this time of year.
Poppy Season is a scourge of this country. The once respectful symbol of the fallen in two World Wars has been hijacked by certain quarters to meet their own political ends.
McClean refuses to wear one, as his right, due to his well-publicised beliefs but he is now vilified by a section of British society and media and it was covered perfectly by Twitter account IrishPropaganda:
If you want to read what Souness said, it’s listed below but please be prepared for some real dinosaur and borderline racist views by the former Rangers man:
And these Celtic fans were seriously unhappy with him:
Because Sounness is a bitter old dragged up DOB. Still living in the dark ages. How that old racist c£&t gets a gig on TV and radio I’ll never know. Vile b*st*rd of a man.

@talkSPORT but if anyone dares to say their opinion on the queen you force them to delete their twitter and fire them, Racist and xenophobic show

A truly detestable h*n, promoting a Protestant institution, will never be a tenth of the man James McLean is. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Talksport has a full card of Brexit loving racist flag sh*ggers. Souness fits right in with their kind of guest.

There were many more comments but I couldn’t publicise them due to the nature of the anger being aimed at Souness but it just shows how narrow minded and bigoted his comments are.
