I've long suspected the Thesaurus entry for "Lets be absolutely blunt" would be along the lines of "Whats about to follow is pure bullshit". Very much a "Ah just tell it like it is" statement in terms of letting you know you should probably ignore what follows. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennyzer0 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Edinburgh Evening News both deliberately conflating two different stories in their headline (Andy Webster praising former club St Mirren, and Calvin Bassey's unrelated potential transfer to Fulham) and therefore making it look as though Webster is delighted to see The Rangers enriched further - and more importantly, forgetting the dot between 1 and 5 in the windfall The Rangers are due (it's £1.5 million, not £15 million). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Reporting Scotland at lunchtime saying that Viaplay have the rights to “Scottish top flight football”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Ewan Murray having another totally normal one on Twitter. He calls the "Scottish Premiership" the "SPL" (i.e., Scottish Premier League) because he "refuse(s) to use copycat English league terminology". That would be the "English league" whose top flight is called...The Premier League. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For ages I genuinely thought he was just some unhinged Hearts fan on twitter, I had no idea he was a journalist and shocked to find out he was tbh.

I think you and I have possibly got the better end of the deal here there is a constant stream of powderpuff click bait non stories about Rangers and Celtic Hearts and Aberdeen generally only get stories reported when there is an actual story to report and we’re spared lot of noise and nonsense like that one one about Ralston becoming a father I think it would be a shame if Kye Rowles decides to shave off that moustache, other hearts fans might see it as long overdue but the daily record wouldn’t run it as a story, which is as it should be However it’s genuinely possible that we could see a headline reading “Raith rovers team bus crash: 2 dead former Celtic starlet traumatised” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we all know this, but if our top league was to copy England's then it would be a separate organisation and would indeed be called the SPL, or similar (since the English top league is separate to the English Football League). Our top league isn't called the SPFL. It's called The Premiership. The English top league is called The Premier League. The SPL hasn't existed in over a decade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Murray sounds like a schoolboy who petulantly whispers someone's nickname even after the teacher told them to stop saying it outright, thinking he's got one up on the system. While I am unsure if Murray (and Jackson for that matter, seeing as he's been mentioned too) are boomers, but it's classic boomer behaviour from them. They are the sorts of people who would sit down at a dinner party and launch into some 'pepe silvia' like rant about how climate change is directly related to Jewish bankers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Surely the biggest irony is that we had a Premier Division long before England did? If anything they copied us (up until the stupid Championship rebrand up here). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
