Jinky67 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, AJF said: How can you disagree with what I've said I maybe thought some would deflect or just ignore it altogether, but to actually get defensive rather than just say "you know what, I can appreciate why people are ridiculing and laughing at this" is something else. Surely it's a fundamental principle where if you are writing an article to convey a specific viewpoint, you shouldn't lead with a picture that is opposing to it? I haven’t disagreed to anything you said actually I just asked you a question and then remarked how very Bennett like your post is in the sense that you are starting to post links to Twitter on matters relating to Celtic and when someone doesn’t immediately validate your opinion you assume they disagree completely and get a little bent out of shape. Also if you read the article it becomes clear why he is using it as his belief is “It’s a goal, mate” also the goal is the topic for quite a bit of his article so it does make sense even if you disagree with the decision Edited December 8, 2021 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Well isn't this a perfect example of the duopoly in our game, two teams who massively benefit from refereeing decisions are arguing over which of them have been hardest done, when, as I said, they aren't even in the slightest bit "hard done to", in fact quite the opposite. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a basic concept of journalism that the headline of an article highlights the point the author is trying to convey. In this instance - Celtic are unfairly treated. No matter how many lines he dedicated to Kyogo’s goal, that wasn’t the purpose of the article and using that picture goes against what he was trying to convey. I was laughing at it’s very ironic use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is referring to the article, fair enough. If it's referring to the posts in here then it's not really what is happening. I was laughing at the use of a picture in an article, not arguing who is more "hard done to". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justification doesn’t come in the form of a question and the question was for you to clarify who you felt he was out of touch with. I’m not a journalist so won’t claim to understand it’s basic principles however if he’s claiming Celtic are being unfairly treated which includes the furore around Kyogos goals then to the author the picture probably makes sense especially if the intended audience are Celtic fans who may agree with him? You can still find it ironic and funny, the 2 things can both be true but it’s a bit of a non-story tbh Edited December 8, 2021 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I think going and seeking out the ‘other sides’ weirdo, obviously written by a psycho or a rangers fans internet blogs definitely belongs in the designated OF forum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 A group of lads have gone and created a business where they feed both sides of the OF paranoia, and all the OF fans do is buy it and start arguing with each other. Genuinely a genius business plan. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoying the narrative been played, they can't stop his movement him scoring goals so they give him a slap step on his toes grab and nip his skin all the dirty tricks players get away with and is part of the game. Lets hope it continues more players getting booked and sent off because they can't handle Kyogo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
