McCabe Grass

[Brainwrong]

Love this locally specific cultural graffiti history I catch every now and again on EDINBURGH / Leith Facebook groups.

I didn’t imagine it! This shit was everywhere:

Thoughts?

Also, who was the lassie that was outed as taking it up the arse? Marilyn? That was everywhere too.

I wonder if Mr McCabe started the ‘up the arse’ graffiti before the Grass graffiti appeared as really, what happens in the bedroom, stays in the bedroom. Marilyn was right to our McCabe for the filthy grass he was.

Shite thread in my opinion. I am not on Facebook nor Twitter. I do not much care about the 'latest' news about Hibs which is regularly posted on here from these sources nor random graffiti nor sexual accusations. Vigilantes rule ya bass. Outed, give me a break. Grim.

When I saw the thread title, I thought it was an advert for a landscaping business

Can't say I've ever noticed the McCabe graffiti - but I certainly recall the Copenhagen trip, with every random pub I visited having a "LEE WALLACE IS A GRASS" sticker somewhere, above the urinals, on the front of the beer taps, on tables....... it was surreal!


Someone must have come prepared with hundreds of them.

Nope. I'm no saying who it was.

Ask McCabe.

Also, perhaps there’s a personal aspect to this for me. My mates 11 year old sister was sexually assaulted and as there were no witnesses, the piece of shit didn’t even get a sniff of justice. So, my pals husband made it very clear via graffiti that he was a dangerous nonce.

Could be part of a Turf war between gardeners of sharp gradients???? I love the nutty threads you find here!

That'd just be an uphill struggle.

Poor guy at the bus stop looks like he has been framed

Mind it from back in the day. Was over plenty bus stops around Auggies when I was at school. That pic taken just up at Calder Road I think.

I remember the McCabe thing all over the west of Edinburgh. Never found out if he was a grass or what he was supposed to have grassed about or who he even was for that matter.
On the other hand the Marlyn Clark accusation is much more interesting
