Sounds like it's just Davie Provan talking shite:

Neilson's relationship with Levein was thrown into sharp relief this week after former Celtic player Davie Provan alluded to the former Scotland manager making "an appearance" in the dressing room during the interval of Hearts recent 3-1 defeat against Aberdeen.

"Provan, in his national newspaper, column added: "Love to know what Robbie Neilson made of it."

Presented with his opportunity to respond, Neilson was keen to underline that the dressing room is very much his domain.

"Craig doesn't come into the dressing room at half-time, he leaves that to me," continued Neilson. "These things get said and get talked about all the time.

"I'm in the situation here and I'm happy with the situation here. So people can say what they want. It's not going to hurt me.

"I think the dressing room is a place where I should be the one that speaks. If anyone else is going to speak, it would be my captain."

I wonder if Craig writes poetry? Even if he does, nothing will ever top the Frog

Davie Provan is the source?

Oh for the days when vlad would storm in to the changing room at half time and threaten ksanivicius with the gulag if he didnt pull his finger out.

Online abuse

There is an honest, engaging quality to Foster. He has played in major Champions League matches, captained Aberdeen and enjoyed a solid professional career, yet encountered plenty of jarring moments, too.

After a spell at Bristol City, he returned to Rangers and soon after signed up for Twitter, where he was immediately abused by the first person who responded to him.

"The guy said he would take great delight in watching me get hit by a bus, die in the street and he would revel in a party afterwards to celebrate," Foster says. "It was that absurd that I laughed to myself, I couldn't believe I was reading this.

Not that bad compared to many, many posts on here

The party bit was a bit too far. Rest was fair enough.

'Why do you feel that it's necessary to say that or that it's okay to say that?'

At the weekend vs Motherwell or when they played Accies??

I'd heard about some scuffles about a banner when they played at NDP but nothing about them assaulting the cops.

What charge are they going to get them on?

That's mental.

[Shuto Makino]

That's unbelievable.

The voicing of disapproval with an organisation = potential sanctions from that organisation.

"We don't sell any figures which resemble footballers. It is a complete coincidence that the figure 'Bastian' looks like Schweinsteiger," a spokesman added.

"We thought that all Germans look like that. Bastian is also a very common name in Germany."

Maybe go for the Scottish angle of "bringing the game into disrepute"?

[Charlie Kelly]

No doubt they'll get a bigger fine than if the fans all started racially abusing the opposition.
