Snifter Pee Rot Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Must be the most hotly awaited release since Game of Thrones season 8, I bet it's just as crap. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 8 minutes ago, NorthBank said: OK. Thanks. I usually listen in but didn't hear it advertised nor was it promoted just prior to start time. Only heard a promo for Get It On at 6pm. I must be tuned in to FM and not MW. Will want to listen to it this week, I don't think it was broadcast live, think it was just the podcast actually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) Rangers will call it bullying, the other side will call it legitimate lobbying, and it will go on and on with nothing being done to set up next season.

That's how I read it. I'm still uneasy at the SPFL calling it "lobbying" because to me that word has connotations, however if there is any club that can start a fight in an empty room it's Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "lobbying" will have been mainly club blazers phoning each other, and the SPFL officials offering much the same clarification as Doncaster gave on Sportsound. Hopefully somebody has a record of Rangers' efforts to sway the wavering against giving Celtic the title..

Hopefully somebody has a record of Rangers' efforts to sway the wavering against giving Celtic the title.. It was MacLennan that said it (I think, honestly can't remember) but the choice of word is interesting to me. Advising, fine, lobbying is something different. I've already had quite a long exchange about this with someone else so don't really fancy repeating it, but to me lobbying goes well beyond advising. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking forward to their being absolutely no evidence of anything whatsoever, and Sevco being made to look even bigger arses than they already are (much as I would like to see the back of Doncaster) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 For Rangers "bullying" allegations to have any weight they'd need to have proof of someone at the SPFL going full Suge Knight. I'd be surprised (but thoroughly entertained) if that was the case though. Colour me surprised if it's not some weak, dog-whistle vagueness that will get the collective brain trusts of FF/RM/Kickback in a froth but absolutely no one else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a bit weird if SPFL officials didn't advocate for the proposal their board recommended. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Just now, welshbairn said: It would be a bit weird if SPFL officials didn't advocate for the proposal their board recommended. Again, lobbying is not the same as advising. If you want I can point you to where I've discussed this before. In short I have no issue with the SPFL either advising or even recommending, that isn't lobbying though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) 6 minutes ago, Cairn Terrier said: It is really. All depends on whether you are working with the etymological or the de-facto meaning. For example, in the political spectrum, lobbying has far more connotations to it than simply advising or recommending. That's why I have a concern that the word is being used. 4 minutes ago, Alert Mongoose said: That last post will be the whole argument. Close thread/ Yeah, as I said, that's what is going to happen. The SPFL will say that's fine, Rangers will say that's bullying and as Del Amitri once sang .. "Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all. The needle returns to the start of the song and we all sing along like before..." Edited May 4, 2020 by Ric 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
