Pacific Quay Musings?

I think @alexscottislegend, like me, is angry at Rangers as well as the BBC because both are allowing the current situation to go on with no end in sight which denies Rangers fans a service with Celtic being the primary beneficiary in terms of air time.

 

Enough is enough. It's only press privileges for crying out loud, the price ordinary fans are paying for the pride of some people in the club is too high.

No its not only press privilege! 

 

Its the constant attacks upon an institution, a brand, its players, management and executive.  I would put it to you that the Rangers brand is far more important than you or my feelings. You are correct the BBC are supposed to be impartial however in this instance they are NOT and there is nothing we (you or I) or Rangers can do about that other than to remove those press privilege from the lead perpetrators of the diatribe. Rangers have done this and BBC Sport Scotland has decided not to enter into negotiation to resolve the matter and to back its man.

I meant it is only re-insisting press privileges that would end the stand off and resume radio coverage of our games.

Revisionism ain't what it used to be.

 

It's a European night of football, two Scottish clubs are involved, one received nearly four and a half hours of coverage, the other gets a dozen lines amounting to five minutes. It is a Pacific Quay production. Sellik got beat, in performance terms they got beat bad. There is no mention of Sellik carrying the Scottish standard, there is no talk of the co-efficient, and the only comfort lies under a twenty tog rated quilt of revisionism. Snuggling under last evening was Big Dick presenting, joined in the studio by Tom English. In Leipzig, the continental warmth was shared by Liam McLeod commentating and Pat Bonner roaring on ra Sellik. Wullie Miller took it in turns to spoon with both. The BBC Scotland quilt reaches East Germany, but not Ibrox. Rangers and Rangers supporters are out in the cold, Meager heat is generated from Steven Thomson sat atop the Naughty Step watching the TV. Each of his four updates on the Rangers/Spartak game, was treated by his colleagues as if he had farted under the quilt.

 

From 17.30hrs until 22.00hrs, the mixture of Dandy Dons and Yahoos chorused revisionism. Sellik were playing their second string, wracked with injuries, and how do you fill a hole left by Broonaldo? Empathy echoed from the Dandies, they played Burnley under similar circumstances? These last three years, Sellik cannot be compared to Rangers, no PQ employee will utter the phrase, 'old firm'. Sellik are managed by an experienced Boss, Rangers by a Youth team coach. Sellik are a fiscal example to all, Rangers are a shambling chaos. Oh, and Aberdeen are the second best team in Scotland, the Dandies are proud to shelter under ra Sellik's protective shadow. No comparisons?

 

Well, Liam led the charge. Sellik, like Aberdeen are the recipients of the toughest of tough draws. The quilt raised as the murmurs of approval expelled hot air. Rangers are playing in a vastly inferior group, again the temperature rose. Big Dick enthusiastically threw in, "a full strength Rangers had to play extremely well throughout in Spain, to achieve a draw with an under strength Villarreal". Gripping the fantasy that ra Sellik can rely on beating anyone at Parkhead, Bonner had them qualifying from the group. Miller must have kicked the quilt off, when he offered, "Celtic cannot defend in Europe". It would appear that comparisons with Rangers are sometimes necessary?

 

Here's a comparison for PQ to chew on, at the half way stage in the Europa Cup; your favourites have accrued 3 points from three games. Rangers have secured five points from three matches, whilst on an eleven euro game unbeaten run. Don't worry, it's just a temporary inconvenience.

 

The Rangers team was available from 18.30 hrs, Radio Snyde broadcast it almost immediately. Beeb Scotland were amid their live commentary from Germany, but half time is fifteen minutes long, minimum. They did not inform license paying Rangers supporters of the Rangers team until 19.54hrs, six minutes prior to kick-off. Steven Thomson's contributions were the team, an update on the twenty-fifth minute after Brendan's long interview. A half-time and full time report lasting a couple of minutes.

 

How long will it take for the quilt to suffocate the lot of them, we should be told?

Its only Chris McLaughlin from BBC that has had his privileges removed. The other journalist who is not BBC Scotland is Graham Spiers.

Brilliant post again 26th. Take a bow sir

The BBC is funded by the licence fee payers i.e. you and I.

And a result It is supposed to be an impartial broadcaster without allegiances.

However what we can see from the pondlife at BBC PQ is an organisation which works to various agendas. One of those agendas is blatantly anti-Rangers bias. Everyone can see this.

What I object to is having to pay a licence fee to fund theBBC. If they want these agendas then,fine, but get funding from the real commercial world like other broadcasters have to do.

Then see how they get on with much reduced income because viewing(& listening) audiences no longer want to watch/listen to their purile anti-Rangers broadcasts 

 

Yes we all object to the BBC and its bigotry. We all know what they do and say. This topic has over 1000 posts recording it. The real issue is what's to be done about it and bending our knee to them while expecting everything to be resolved as a result is either naive or foolish, probably both. Doing so because we can't be arsed making alternative arrangements to see or listen to Rangers' games shows a regrettable lack of character. More importantly, why would anyone actually choose to listen to BBC Scotland vent their hatred of Rangers?

I've said it already but we need to collectively threaten to withdraw our licence payments.  

 

Only then will those 'London bubble' BBC ostriches take any note.

Over a 1000 posts and lots about how stupid everyone else is from you, but not any suggestion from you about what to do. 26th is providing a great service in recording the issue whereas you are an empty vessel friend. You just don’t get that some folk are dependent on the BBC and others want their vfm for their licence fee. 

 

We heard you first time (ages ago) and we get your point.
