Max Rebo's Big Blue Nose 0 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 As a person I am generally not paranoid but I found the Daily Records take on Fernando Ricksens Twitter abuse somewhat perplexing. Firstly, the reporter states the abuse was instigated by a "so called" Celtic fan. When I read this I couldn't help but think, would another "fan" of a particular club ie. Rangers, be afforded the same moniker. My bet would be on that particular version not labelling that fan as a "so called" Rangers fan... Secondly, I found it even more perplexing that the said reporter is keen for us to hear what real Celtic fans think of this lowlife turd. Very admirable indeed but once again I doubt if this was a story about an abusive Rangers fan, you would get a normal Gers fans POV to balance the story ie.providing a positive ending to round off the piece. Maybe I'm just paranoid after all.... http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/fans-condemn-twitter-troll-who-2677855 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a so called fan; he's a 'so-called' human being. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True_Ger_1872 2 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 It is interesting he is labelled a "so called" celtic fan as I was showsn a screenshot of the tweet in question. One can hardly call one a "so called" fan when their username and their profile pic is Celtic related....must have been a red herring.... This tweet was sickening !! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aweebluesoandso 290 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I think the Rhetard's first instinct is to go into damage limitation mode when the story is negative about Septic supporters, compared to damage overload when we are the subject being reported. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
True_Ger_1872 2 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Also need to take heed of the fact that Football Clubs are taking a lot stronger stance against journalists that they dont like by banning them. Nobody will criticise Celtic just now incase they dont get invited to their Champions League outings.... I hope it will change when Rangers get back up there but i seriously doubt it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
