Matt Le Tissier - Second Rate Footballer?


I've been broadly supportive of the SNP in recent years, but I find the antics of the 'cybernuts' on social media increasingly embarrassing.

Take this tweet from Tricia Marwick, the former presiding officer of the Scottish Parliament, who describes Matt Le Tissier as a "second rate footballer" for having the temerity to question on Twitter Scotland's handling of the Coronavirus epidemic.

Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?"
