BBC Limmy did the podcasts - they were called Limmys World of Glasgow. They were brilliant
I've heard of that guy. I unfortunately think that his arrest will give him more exposure than he deserves. I have a fairly dark sense of humour but this guy does push the limits.
Aye but apparently they both call themself Limmy, just to complicate things.
They both do podcast type things, but the one that got arrested ones are really bad.
so do we have football connection to this?
All his stuff tends to be as a 'Rangers' fan and he was highlighted on C4 news as being one of the lunatic fringe at our club I think.
Aye I think hes the older brother of the famous Limmy.
Just a bam trying to get a bit of fame off his brother. I dont find the real limmy all the funny either.
Duke a lot of his podcast seem centred around rangers and football. Some of his nastier stuff was about paul mcbride burning in hell.
did you see what a celtic fan wrote back to Alex Thomson
'When will his brother @DaftLimmy be arrested for his crimes against comedy' hahahaha

============================
I seriously doubt the guy was about to bomb anyone!
I cant stand the guy, but this does sound a bit ridiculous!

Fair enough. Does anyone have an idea of what was included in the 'offending' material?

From 5:35 in.
Telling folk to tweet the Editor of Phil's book apparently.
Cant view it in work Mitre. If that was all he said then It sounds like an over reaction.
Well it is Alex Thomson...
There have been far too many over the top reactions to the whole debacle of the past few years.
The Thomson story does fan the flames, but the fact that there is anything to fan at all is what is problematic.
People who do not actually work for the club need to realise something.
IT IS ONLY A GAME.
That's it.
For people who work for the club, it is their livelihood.
For everyone else, it is a pastime, a hobby, a means of spending a few hours away from the normal everyday lives we all lead.
To those who have sought & continue to make it otherwise, a single message.
Go, go now, and take your vitriolic, moronic, nonsense with you.
Limmy has tweeted this to STV:
"Alleged" offensive remarks and it wasn't a podcast and wasn't anti terrorist officers.
To be honest, not enough info for me to honestly answer if its an over reaction.
He does seem to be encouraging folk to tweet the girl, and his language is fairly leading in that he does not expect it to be pleasant messages.
What is insinuated but not confirmed is that he also leaked info about her address etc.
If this is the case then I dont really have any sympathy.
If a nut job on the internet started some hate campaign against me and started posting personal details about where I lived then I would not be best pleased and would hope I could get them charged with something.
Actually, forget the bit about posting her address, that was nonsense.
In which case I think the arrest for saying folk shout tweet her is to be quite honest, ridiculous!
Half of the guys on here started tweeting Yoko Ono for a laugh a few weeks back!
We live in a world of mopery

She was the editor for Phil 3 names book.
He siad that folk should wind her up on twitter.
Bit of a untish thing to do, but hardly worthy of getting dragged out your house by the bomb squad!
