The Record with their finger on the pulse as "when you see it" pictures are as old as the internet itself. As is young Connie judging by the coupon on it.

Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) Is it just me or are these articles just attention seeking clickbait with basically zero prospect of it happening? Usually they're shouting from the rooftops that football in Scotland needs as much investment as possible which the SFA went for and sold the rights to the highest bidder. Now simply because there's a big game "let's look to breach those contracts", "Let's damage future revenue". If you've been paying to Sky for the football this is a sure fire way to piss you off. FYI I believe the reason why we end up with England games on STV is they're only allowed to bid and fund any potential Scotland games from their regional Scottish budget whereas ITV are allowed to purchase the England friendlies via a national budget.

It’s populism masquerading as journalism. Union Jack at the Herald group is the most unabashed culprit (always aimed at Rangers fans), but there are myriad examples. File under articles about “common sense refereeing” which also refer to “consistency”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swami Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) Not so much bad journalism as impressively passive-aggressive journalism. I think Roy Laidlaw trumps you here slightly, Nir.

Horrifically Cringey delivery and definitely pissing in the wind with no prospect of success, but I don't think it's that unreasonable to express a preference for Scotland games to be free to air. Their ire should be directed at the free to air broadcasters who don't even bother their arse trying to bid for them. I mean let's no pretend that Sky aren't a bunch of contemptible c***s who treat Scottish football with derision and contempt, but at least they bid for the fucking rights. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 The clip literally only shows Celtic goals, and counts them, in some weird suggestion Celtic have scored 22 unanswered goals at Pittodrie i think. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szamo's_Ammo Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I think it is desperately sad what has happened to Tom English since March, after his campaign to save Hearts from relegation was defeated at every turn. He seems to possess a bitterness towards most Scottish football clubs. The hospitality afforded to journalists at Tynecastle must be something else! -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
