Kyle Lafferty has paid a huge price on the back of the social media storm after he used a sectarian slur and he’ll have about three months to dwell on his behaviour.
The 10-game ban dished out by the SFA is one of the biggest in Scottish football history and although the Killie striker has said sorry, some fans want him to go further. Bill Lockerbie, Northampton , said: “ Lafferty is apologising to Kilmarnock supporters for his sectarian remarks after receiving a 10-match ban. Has he considered apologising to the wider public, particularly those of us who he specifically offended?
“What a coincidence that his next match will be against Celtic at Hampden, so may I suggest he grabs the microphone before kick off and does the honourable thing. I won't hold my breath.” Paul Conner , via email, said: “At long last Lafferty is banned for 10 matches. Obviously Kilmarnock FC is not , as claimed, ‘a family club’. A family club would have dumped Lafferty for good immediately he was charged with sectarian abuse.”
