Bigsby Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Northsound DJ Greigsy cleared over attack charges - Evening ExpressSeems Northsound were quite right to take action to deal with the tittle tattle and innuendo that surrounded this case.Greig Easton, ladies and gentlemen. An innocent man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Seems Northsound were quite right to take action to deal with the tittle tattle and innuendo that surrounded this case.Northsound's problem wasn't the tittle tattle about the case, it was the effect it would have on their brand. They didn't have a problem with discussing something that was a matter of public record but they did have a problem with the station name being mentioned alongside it.Besides that a case being dismissed because the alleged victim couldn't remember the incident is very different to being found innocent.

Alan Cynic Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 A fair point....none of Jack the Ripper's victims could recall much about the attacks either.I'll stick to Aitken's sausage rolls until Greigsy's innocence is beyond doubt.

Don't be put off by their crude, brash, boastful slogan.They really are one of Scotland's better bakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for you Adolf, we still have a system of being innocent until proven guilty, and therefore Greigsy can walk down Canal Street with his head held high.

I can see the door of Aitkens across the road, taunting me, willing me to go buy butteries. Damn them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the eyes of god...But of course there is no god so I guess he just has to make do with the law. His show's still shit though. The worst kind of poor man's Chris Moyles - "haha, I did this hilarious thing at the weekend, here's a 10 minute long story complete with fake laughter and put on disbelief from my producer and other friends in the studio instead of playing fucking music like I'm supposed to" - shite. Thank fuck for ipod connectors so I don't have to listen to that pish. The guy on Original 106 in the mornings is just as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Did Chris Moyles also bash his g/f senseless in Canal Street?(edit....not that Greigsy did, of course...he is innocent). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I met him once and he's an utter cock.It's probably OK to call Greigsy a cock in this thread. I don't think even the best of defence lawyers could get him off with that accusation. But any inference that he is guilty of domestic abuse will be deleted to stop Neil getting in trouble again.

Guest Gladstone Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I met him once and he's an utter cock.Still, innocent though.I met Neil Weightman also of Northsound fame years ago. He was mate's with my mate's flatmate or some shit. He was a bitty full of himself, but he did buy me a pint, so I'll forgive him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Fair enough...but is he a 'dark-lord' of violence???Obviously not. I don't know how often I have to say it, but he's an innocent man.Hopefully Northsound management will be along soon to put an end to these slurs on this poor man's unblemished character.

Alan Cynic Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I wasn't talking about Griegsy (whose innocence goes without saying), but was replying to Gladstone's Neil Weightman stalk.Is Neil capable of a bitchslap or ten??????

It's beyond awful but does have better traffic info than Northsound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
