A couple of days ago fellow Premiership side Livingston FC made an official statement via their website concerning the Scottish Sun and the Sun Group Newspapers stating the tabloids “salacious and factually misleading” article about a suspected cocaine stash found in one of their stadium toilets was a “disgraceful piece of scaremongering over an empty bag,”

The redtop, north, and south of the border have been publishing scandalous stories for years. For example, if one visits Liverpool and you see a Sun newspaper anywhere in or around the city, you’ll deserve a medal. NO vendor will touch it with a bargepole.
Showing solidarity
Should Hibs FC and the likes of you and I show solidarity with Livingston FC?
