colinstein 294 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Just been on the wireless that they'll be covering tomorrow's game "live". Will they be at Ibrox or will it be pundits in a studio watching Sky Sports ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boabie 230 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I'd suspect they'll be in a studio. Whatever they do they'll be garbage. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I think they are covering the Scottish cup so they are committed to do it. The BBC are not banned so it is no problem for Rangers as long as McLaughlin does not try to use his press card. Not a sign that things have been resolved. I think they covered a SC game last season as well. Not 100% sure on that. They certainly covered the final. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are there tomorrow either it's been resolved or they're going to look even dafter than they do now 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 5,838 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 At the start of the season, BBC Scotland were using both Richard Wilson and Craig Paterson to cover Rangers at Ibrox. Both sat in the studio watching Rangers TV, making comments when Richard Gordon asked for updates. After the Hamilton and Motherwell games, they stopped. I suspect both Wilson and Paterson were uncomfortable being played as useful idiots? It was the law of diminishing returns for all lincense fee payers, culminating in the Dundee game. Richard Gordon's entire comment that day was, "oh, Rangers have scored in the 94th minute, Forrester I'm hearing". Then, there were the run of three Ibrox games involving Hearts, Aberdeen, and the Yahoos. Certainly, there was a level of expectation at Pacific Quay that the Bears were about to tip into ferment. Further, PQ is hoaching with Dandies, Jambos, and Yahoos; thus, BBC Scotland decided some listeners were more equal than others. Step up the current useful idiot, Steven Thompson. I believe Big Rheinhardt introduces Steven as, "being right across all media outlets, bringing news from Ibrox". Today, Steven will be viewing Rangers TV, whilst sitting in the PQ studio. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
26th of foot 5,838 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Oh, I should add that I'm sure Rheinhardt will inform the listenership that Chris is unable to speak because he has his mouth full. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
