What looks like a small comment, banter betwixt friends, has resulted with one young person, especially at a time of massive youth unemployability, in being placed in the Dole Queue.
What we can't give the young is the invulnerability of sage (yes I added the s) and poverty - the latter they will have to earn for themselves.
With enormous feet that Max obviously has, perhaps he would be better suited as a mine detector in Afghanistan instead of a trainee BBC comic. I wish you well, young person and I am certain your remarks were purely in bad taste. We are all guilty of that at some time, some more than others.
Second footballer sacked over Neil Lennon Twitter comment
Max McKee, a Clyde FC U-19 player, was suspended earlier on Thursday over a comment made on his Twitter page. A message stated: "Somebody needs to hurry up and shoot Neil Lennon #JustSaying."
Neil Watt, a director at the club, told STV News discussions would be held with the player on Thursday night. Following that meeting, the club released a statement on its website confirming the departure of Mr McKee.
It said: “Clyde Football Club has this evening terminated with immediate effect, the contract of U-19 player Max McKee following the player’s comment regarding Neil Lennon on a social networking site.
“Max has apologised profusely for his words and deeply regrets the distress that his action has caused. Clyde FC equally regrets the offensive remarks by the player and have contacted Celtic FC to apologise for this matter.”
