Bad, Bad Craigy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
The man who has a reputation of being an early riser can afford to sleep in until noon and it appears that the manager with a somewhat nicey nicey reputation can afford to weigh into anyone he sees fit. Yesterday was the second time this season that Aberdeen boss Craig Brown has ended a game at Fir Park by going for an official of the opposition.
At the start of the season, when he was still Motherwell manager, he threw a punch at Odense director, Kim Brink.
Yesterday, he was chasing after John Boyle and then got his hands on his former employer. To do so once is bad enough but to have two misdemeanours like this in one season is surely an indication of bad behaviour. Hmmm, the youth of today….err wait, hmmmm, the elderly of today.
What sort of example is Craig Brown setting to youngsters like Walter Smith, Alex Ferguson and Jim Jefferies by behaving in this manner.
Who knows what Boyle said to spark such a reaction in Brown but when it comes to dishing out the blame, there has been a heavy precedent set in not paying attention to what instigated these matters. The SFA should at least be handing out a warning to Brown about his behaviour and the media should start profiling him in the right manner.
Less of the nicey, nicey and isn’t it funny how he talks about winning corners as being more important than scoring goals and more of, well, he is a bit of a thug isn’t he?

All complete handbags of course, but Broon really has shown himself to be a bit of an arse this season. His quote yesterday about ‘I’d be able to tell you some things about some people at Motherwell, but I’ve too much dignity’ was priceless too — people with real dignity are the last people who’d ever claim to have any.
How did you feel when he attempted to punch the Odense director?
Did you think back then he was acting like an arse or were you not too fussed at the time?
He should be dealt with exactly the same way as McCoist and Lennon have been for their touchline altercation. It was exactly the same.
Spot on TBA.
I know some people view us as fundamentalists in some of our beliefs with regards to Scottish football but we’ve always been consistent in our hope for consistency.
A precedent has been set – Brown should be punished in the same manner of McCoist / Lennon and if there is any punishment that can be applied to Boyle (banning him from pitchside would be sensible), he too should be punished.
The media have clearly handled it differently, will be interesting to see if the ruling body acts differently from their precedent.
Nevermind a pitchside ban for Boyle he should be in jail for the way he has robbed people with Motherwell (twice) and Zoom Airlines.
Absolutely agree on that but wouldnt like the SFA to get involved with that element, Peat would end up knighting him out of sheer incompetency.
But yes, Boyle has behaved in a terrible manner causing great hardship to many people over the years, in football and outside.
It was quite funny when Motherwell were suddenly up in arms when Cardiff completed a deal to sign Craig Bellamy on loan even though Well were owed money from them. As is quite often in football, behaving in a ridiculous manner is fine to do if your club does it but certainly not if another club does it.
