Rangers fans saw that as 'an attack' and went potty (obviously before admin and liquidation) The newco fans went potty at the mad men intro to a highlights package with mccoist falling from up high (again before he fell from their graces). Lost track after that I told you - "enemies". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weirdcal Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I told you - "enemies". Yes. Enemies who give warnings of what is to come... strange for a company to have enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've obviously been affected by this "bias", too... (And I'm surprised, as your team/club/company play in red, white and blue, too...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Part of the reason for providing coverage will be because there is another team to report on, unfortunately 90% of that coverage is blue tinted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Was it not down to Chris McLaughlin going into full mock outrage mode about a few naughty songs during a game at Ibrox last season where that got more coverage than the match itself? As I said, I don't blame Rangers for banning them in that case, as this sort of gushing faux anger over, well, virtually nothing, is the sort of attitude that is ruining the game in this country. The BBC then spat the dummy out over being put in their place, hence the 'ongoing situation'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC then spat the dummy out over being put in their place, hence the 'ongoing situation'. It was at Easter Road as has already been explained. I'd contend that overtly sectarian behaviour is more damaging, than the distaste it provokes in decent people. That you differ, is no surprise.

Bearwithme Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I don't think the aforementioned Jim Spence has ever been banned from Ibrox or had his media credentials withdrawn. Though he has been banned or the like by at least one of the Dundee clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was predictable Ted. It's already been explained what happened. You keep piping up with this though as if it's somehow a clever observation.
