I bet they also do one with Nicola Sturgeon saying "it'll be over by christmas" The coronavirus? "No, Celtic's European campaign". Predictable tired pish for morons. Just like Cowan's schtick these days. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyDD Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 As i've said before I very rarely miss it and agree with others, it still beats the piss out of the rest of the output. That being said, they could maybe be doing with getting some younger football fan, another non-old firm supporter, who disagrees with them and thinks they are a pair of auld fuds, to join them. Add a bit of bite to it. They tend to agree on football matters too much these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also a kerfuffle when the BBC suggested that Craig Whyte might not have wealth beyond dreams as reported, and that their tax arrangements were dubious to say the least, not just the EBTs but not even paying NI contributions. And the embarrassing Ticketus saga. Basically Rangers can't handle the truth and never could. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really interested, just pointing out that this started a long time ago when the BBC edited the interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Chris McLaughlin reported that Rangers fans at a game had been arrested for sectarian singing, so Rangers banned him from Ibrox. They never refuted the truth of that report, simply banning him because he "painted Rangers in a bad light with biased reporting", as if he had just ignored sectarian singing from every other set of clubs fans while, you know, reporting on a Rangers game at Ibrox. The BBC decided they wouldn't send anyone to Ibrox until McLaughlins ban was lifted. The ban is still in place. You'll get that drunkard Kincardine waddling in a 3 tomorrow morning trying to dredge this into a 8 page back and forth about how its the BBC who banned themselves from Ibrox, FWIW, so enjoy that.Christ, I forgot about that shite.Speaks volumes about Scottish journalism that the harshest penalty that The Rangers can think to enact is withdrawal of hospitality privileges [emoji1] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC were out of line there and duly apologised. It's unrelated to the ban on a journalist doing his job, which is very simply a case of Rangers flexing bullying muscles in order to please their most ignorant and unpleasant fans.

It was the 2011/12 season, and I’m pretty sure it was the first half of that season. And again, it’s not unrelated to the McLaughlin ban. The relationship began to deteriorate at that point, and culminated in the ban for McLaughlin and some BBC Scotland journos (but curiously not the English staff) are boycotting in solidarity with him. Others are still attending Ibrox but are just buying tickets to get in. Its not really very interesting and it’s also not new or unique. Hugh Keevins is banned from Parkhead. Aberdeen stopped cooperating with the entire press corps in 2003. Spiers also (rightly) had press privileges withdrawn at Ibrox. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it in my head that it was post liquidation. I think it's hellish actually when clubs ban members of the press. It's an infringement on the notion of a free press. I think league rules should absolutely require that it doesn't happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Some guest they've got on today. Keith Lasley's missus talking about some range of clothing for fat munters, sorry, the fuller figured woman. Fuxake, they could have got me or quite a lot of the posters on here to talk pish about Scottish football and it would have been more interesting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 f**k me, minutes in.. OF love in, support for Maurice Ross throwing around accusations, tenuous guest that's nothing to do with football because it's Keith Lasley's missus. I thought I could brave it out until Leitch came on, but I managed to last less than 10 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to go out with a bird from Niddrie called Tina Small in the mid 80s - she didnt have the mahoosive paps of the "model" you are describing, but was a lot better looking 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
