Pathetic Tosser in Newspaper Interview

In my previous post, I think I made my opinions on Nicky Bailey quite clear. I actually thought it impossible for a man of such dubious morals to stoop any lower than how he cheated a fellow professional and 9,400 fans. But, such is the sheer ignorance of Bailey, he’s somehow managed to do so.

Tucked away inside various football supplements, little has been said in the press of the controversial incident, probably attributed to a lack of footage and the fact that, outside of the Premier League, noone at the red-tops gives two shits about what happens in a game of football contested by two third tier clubs. Imagine my amazement when this article: http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Charlton-star-Nicky-Bailey-brands-Southend-boss-Steve-Tilson-a-total-disgrace-in-red-card-cheat-row-article338465.html popped up on the Mirror Football website.

In an “exclusive” interview, Bailey labels Tilson a total disgrace in a pathetic attempt to clear his name of any cheating, even having the remarkable gaul to claim that, “Cheating is not a word that I have ever been associated with.”

Tell that to Carl Baker, who actually punched Nicky Bailey after being goaded in the final minute of Charlton’s game against Stockport. Alternatively, you could ask any Carlisle fan whose side were provoked by this ignoramus of biblical proportions, resulting in getting another professional sent off… Bailey undergoing a miraculous recovery just in time to chase him off the pitch. Unfortunately, in that game, Bailey was wearing a blue shirt in a prolific spell now soured by this incident and the remarks made after it.

Clearly determined to soil the honest reputation of Steve Tilson, Bailey goes as far as attempting to ridicule his managerial manner, claiming that Tilson has tried to negotiate contracts by scribbling numbers down on a piece of paper. Regardless or not if this is true, it has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the content of the piece and strikes me as a desperate move to garner a cheap laugh. It’s, quite frankly, ridiculous that the paper went to print with such a throw away comment.

Bailey also comments that he still has friends at Southend, but it’s not uncommon for a tabloid newspaper to publish such blatant lies…
