Malky Mackay wasn't happy about it, that is, what Tam Courts did, not the alleged racism. You would think with his history he would keep his puss shut.
However County boss Mackay appeared frustrated by Courts' gesture and questioned the motives behind it.
“I thought it was an interesting thing to do considering he doesn’t know exactly what has happened," Mackay said.
“It is clearly premeditated because that red t-shirt isn’t sitting on the bench.
“For a manager to do that was an interesting situation and something that was an interesting judgement call to make.”
TBH, I'd totally forgotten about the Malky/Racism issue.
Does he think it was a dig at him?
I very much doubt it was. I rekon that Tam, like me, was not thinking anything about the Malky incident - which TBF was a few year ago now- and was simply reacting to something racially abusive directed from a RC supporter towards Fuchs????
Nothing wrong with taking a stance against racism. Only to be applauded. Well done Tam.
Dont know how Malky could not be aware of what went on as im sure the County players who spoke to Fuchs around that time had heard the comment and would have informed their manager.
However, ive just had an oh sh!t moment myself while writing this and wonder if a supporter trying to show support has been misheard in his pronunciation of County!
Canna believe people were actually wanting McKay as manager. Totally tainted as a human being never mind as a manager. For years I've hated the scottish futba old boys' club---didn't think the Tam experiment would work but really hoped it would(i hoped Cathro would work at Hearts too). Glad to see pusses being shut all round(mine included). Great to see Tam coming out his shell with that anti racism t shirt.
Another win and clean sheet, delighted with that. Just watching the game now on alba, will comment on the performance later
Can't think of a start like this with regards winning 1-0 so many times, good to have that confidence defensively, since the poor showing at Pittodrie we've lost just 3 goals in league and thats having played both uglies, even being positive I wouldn't have saw that
Probably the best we've been as a defence (post Jim) over the years was the 96/97 Tommy McLean, we had a lot of cleansheets that year but were more a threat going forward, a season like that losing less goals than games played would give a shout at a top 4 finish, no getting carried away either, we can't rely on that all the time but hopefully get a decent target man in if possible from free agent list
