jordan Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Aird’s behaviour yesterday has seen his contract ripped up 18 hours in advance. If that link doesn’t work CANMNT_SUPERFAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Not very positive. He seems to be slipping into irrelevancy, which is a shame because he had a lot of potential. I hope he gets his career back on track but that doesn't seem very likely at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Truth is, he was already gone, short term deal, started every game basically then all of a sudden wasn’t in the last two squads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Won't have helped his cause that Cove Rangers' manager is a former Celtic player. Think a move back to Canada and CanPL would be a good move for him to try to get his career back on the rails.

jordan Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Cove rangers manager who signed him fairly quickly after his Dundee Contract was freed, the same former Celtic player who brought him to Falkirk? You think that impacted Aird? Or did you read anything? BuzzAndSting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Cove got an easy out for paying wages. As if anyone would get sacked for that a fine, slapped wrists and warning maybe. Might be far more to his attitude during his spell there than we know but he gave them a chance to save money. Aird should certainly know better. Endeared himself further to Rangers fans though lol. Hope he comes to the CPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even get the point in cutting his contract, they wanted to keep him until the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpursFlu Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Fraser Aird would be a huge hit in the CPL. When he was with the Caps people wanted to hate on him but he became a fan favorite because as you see from this incident he's just a real dude who wears his heart on his sleeve. Say what you want about his level of play but he's always hustling and sticking his nose in. Hes fun to watch. Would be a great hero/villain for the league apbsmith, nolando, JuicyHam and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baulderdash77 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I hope Aird comes to the CanPL next year. He would do great there and get on track I think. CANMNT_SUPERFAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

costarg Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Honest question: do y'all find his gesture really that bad? Dunno, seems like a dude having some fun in a stadium, we've all seen much worse. How exactly do we expect these pro athletes to behave? Movie stars and singers are half naked, doing drugs and celebrating it. Priests get away with raping kids. Presidents get away with anything these days. Racisim is everywhere from stadiums to the police, with hardly any consequence. Yet we hold athletes to impossible standards. Is it just me? toontownman, hamiltonfan and N1ckbr0wn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally have no problem with it and take zero offence. However, when you are a public figure your actions come under the microscope and I have no problem with that reality either. I am disappointed because his actions show a lack of awareness of said reality. His career is also faltering lately, so it is hard not to make the connection between his actions at Celtic Park and his lack of forum recently on the field. If he was tearing it up I wouldn’t care at all, but the fact this comes during his career low point is disturbing for those fans wishing to see him back to his best. johnyb and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpursFlu Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I think it's probably more the fact that guy is at a stadium supporting another team. But yah he clearly is behaving like hes part of unattached fc. I also think it's kinda cool that a professional footballer is still a fan like that. All is good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unnamed Trialist Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I would consider the possibility that Aird got tickets to the match as a SFA courtesy, or home club courtesy, being a player from a professional club. Which is standard practice. If so he might have technically been representing them. If not, if he paid to go into the stand (I am not sure where he was), it would be as a private citizen and he might have more leeway, as I see it. I am sure dozens of lower league players in Scotland are sitting in pubs watching Old Firm, most being a supporter of one or another, and doing much worse in word and deed.
