I just can't get over some of the comments on the daily mail story.
Makes me sick to think I share a country with people like them.
Just completely stunned at the lack of thought that has gone into there posts.

We bought a copy of the Sun and The Mail today, but being the Scottish Editions, it was not in it.
Those people leaving abusive comments can go take a long walk off a short pier!

There are loads of pics of Gav, why do they pick the closest to his face, and most out of focus?

Because in the full pic Gav was holding a drink and his Dad did not want to have him seen as a young lad who gets pissed all the time
Gav hardly drank and if he did it was on special occasion, so it not fitting to show a pic of him drinking, cos he was not that type of lad
Respect
