Very similar to what goes on in today's Champions League then.

Much as I want rid of it the difference is they're not installing it at all. We have a bunch of clowns that have forked out big (by our standards) money to put it in and their egos won't allow to them to take a financial hit as well as admit they were wrong. Prevention is always better than cure.

'no one'. Yep, absolutely no one. Not one person. Anyone using that term is purely and simply 100% wrong.

That crossed my mind!

I'm beginning to think the answer could be no...

I see when you go into the tables and fixtures sections on the BBC website only Dundee United are given a club badge outside of the Premiership clubs. All other clubs have a grey shield while in England every club as far down as National league has their's shown. It's only National League North /South where they're not shown. Not sure if it's a Glasgow or London/Salford issue but it's just another example of the 'couldn't give a f*ck' attitude by the lot of them.

Any more? Yep. There are no Scots living in England of course. Sounds like you work for the BBC.

https://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/14695576.inside-oriam-new-centre-sporting-excellence-removes-excuses-scotland-equation/ ORIAM sounds like a team name from Only Connect or the tag of the latest You Tube sensation. Instead the hope is it will become the finishing school for Scotland’s future Olympians, Six Nations champions and World Cup footballers. The title, dreamt up by focus groups and marketing types, may split opinion – one rather convoluted explanation is that it can be broken down as “I am gold” using the Gaelic word for said precious metal – but the derivation of the name is not hugely significant. This, after all, is about evolution, not etymology.

Is it not something like you can't schedule fixtures for the same time as CL fixtures but you can show it if it's had to be rescheduled like this one. That seems a daft enough reason for UEFA to have come up with it so could be right.

That's unreal. A Rangers player, the greatest goal scoring 'defender' in the history of the world at that, placed behind a diddy player. Someone will be signing on today.

That'll balance out the Rangers fanzine that is the BBC then.

He was doing so well but then had to ruin it by slipping back into the default media bigot love. I take it he didn't want an increase in his car and household insurance premiums.

The ex-Old Firm tag has been around for a lot longer than the internet and not even 23 minutes is needed, just having been part of one of their set ups is enough. It's the Scottish media's equivalent of a star on the Hollywood walk of fame and a lifelong honour bestowed on a player. Their love for everything bigot should never be underplayed.

@Div The drawback to ignoring someone on here is obviously their posts still appear when they are quoted by others. I've seen on other forums that this doesn't happen and the 'you've chosen to ignore etc etc' message appears in the requote instead of the original post. Is there any chance of that facility being added here? It'd be a Godsend at times! Cheers.

That's different from going through the process you mentioned. It's the BBC. They'll do what they want.
