Can you believe Roughy has never been sent a thank you letter from the SFA for his services to football! Real listener Cleo sent this in for Roughy:

Thank you letter for Roughy

Dear Mr Rough (round the edges)

We write (a tad late and under duress) to show our appreciation to such a fine player (player being the operative word) a legend (to himself), someone who has given so much (crap) during his career in football.

We at the SFA (Sweet ‘F’ All) Club would like to commend you on your years of:

  • Dribbling (doon ur trousers)
  • Kicking (that drink habit)
  • Running (fae the tax man)
  • Huddling (yer last pound coin)
  • Passing (every opportunity that came your way)
  • Heading (for your usual fall)
  • Not forgetting your legendary ‘fine tackle’ (always hangin' oot)

And your much appreciated support (round your belly and your man boobs)

All great attributes for such a fine man (in drag). Such an Iconic figure that so many who would have liked to (failed to) follow.

Please accept this letter of apology for being late in writing to you (it’s aw yer gettin’, be grateful ye old git)

I trust that this letter fulfils your needs, and that you are happy in your new job helping Ewen out on the radio.

Wishing you all the best in your new career (‘cos I wet myself listening to you) and if you ever feel like coming back to football (don’t bother, see a shrink first) then give me a call.

All the best from the SFA Team

Best Regards

A Powers (that be)

Chief Whip
