PQ really are a bunch of greetin’ wee girlies, aren’t they?

 

26th, your indefatigability in monitoring their gibberish is saluteable.

 

BBC PQ are anything but that. 

Theyre an infiltrated organisation with agendas

I wonder how PQ select or, prioritise what gets the full report, discuss and, phone-in treatment?

 

Jum Spence's ego and the sensitivities of sand castlers versus a Green Brigade banner with the word, "Hate" on it. 

 

Then there is Postman Pat, I think PQ have missed a trick here. Back in the day, giving this one the full treatment ensured an Undergraduate was charged, convicted and, fined because of over egging the Lennon situation. Now, ra Sellik have a legion of Japanese players and everyone knows the the three fingered Postman Pat is a member of the Yakusa. Time to throw that Undergrad' in the tin pail.

 

Other BBC Scotland manufactured questions we did not get answers to include :

 

Why did Rangers refuse to sell Pepperami ? Why did Rangers cut the grass in the shape of an orange sash? Why did Rangers remove Eggs Benedict from the Argyle House menu?

 

Chief Super' Badyin McFadyin of le Surete must provide answers.

"Oh, the Irish Ladies sang Paddy McGinty's Goat".

 

After capitulating on our own midden 1-7 to Liverpool in the Champions League group stages last midweek, BBC Scotland gave us both barrels. It is not unexpected, five years of improving the Scottish coefficient single handedly, reaching last season's Europa Cup final and, surviving four CL qualifiers this season to secure group status; all conveniently ignored in the rush to bury Rangers again. I think Tom English has attempted to be fair in his analysis, pointing out we were 1-1 with last season's defeated CL finalists on the hour mark but could not cope with Liverpool's increasing pressure in the second half. I thought Goldson's injury absence was the main reason?

 

The other end of the spectrum has Liam McLeod cramming in as many references to the thrashing in a Motherwell-Rangers commentary to RAB Cosgrove, just being RAB Cosgrove. On Saturday, Off the Ball had a Dundee United supporter as a guest, David Hamilton. He had sold his computer gaming company for in excess of £100 million and was now a Director at Brechin City. RAB asked him if he had watched the game? He told of Liverpool being his English side and really enjoyed the match and the outcome. RAB who NEVER watched any of the last four years Rangers Euro encounters(we know this because he continually told us so) appears to have micro viewed the English traveling support. RAB liked the Scousers goading the Rangers support by waving marmalade sandwiches? Apparently, this was a Paddington Bear and recently deceased Monarch reference?

 

RAB lamented the interference running on Rangers thrashing due to the Irish Ladies defeating Scotland and, their post match celebrations at Hampden dominating the front pages. Dundee United supporter utters, "eh"? RAB replies, "oh, the Irish Ladies sang Paddy McGinty's Goat". The Nationalist RAB decides to protect fellow Nationalists by lying. The Irish Ladies belted out several choruses of, 'oh ah up the RA', a lionisation of a proscribed terrorist organisation that murdered fellow Journalist, Lyra McKee in 'Derry just three years ago. An organisation that detonated the Harrods Christmas bomb on the Saturday before Christmas(the busiest shopping day of the year) with barely 30 minuets warning some 39 years past. This is significant because last year, RAB told us his cousin, Philip was one of the six murdered that day. His wife was one of the ninety injured.

 

Why did RAB choose Paddy McGinty's Goat? The song was penned in 1917 by two English songwriters, Lee and Weston. The original lyrics were patriotic, it was during World War One and McGinty's goat fought off German U-Boats at the Irish coast and accompanied the Irish Guards during battles on the western front. The IRA would have held a show trial before butchering the poor beast. RAB is a month away from entering his eighth decade, his hate has withered his mind.

 

RAB broadcasts this vile content as a sop to all his Irish republican fan base. Regularly, he tells of Gerry Braiden, Big Kev'(Kevin McKenna, Angela Haggerty, Susie McCabe, ......... all being BIG, BIG fans of the show. Last Sunday, he was unhappy with the reaction of some of his fellow PQers to St Johnstone conceding a five minutes into injury time winner to ra Sellik, "aye that Sally Magnusson was sounding off". The Witch Finder had exposed another surviving Rangers supporter. Worse still, several sources revealed half a dozen 14/15 year year old girls working in the refreshment kiosks at the away end of McDairmid Park had to be rescued from attack and escorted through the concourse by Police. RAB made no mention, he is prepared to sacrifice the fear of early teenage girls of his home town to placate his Irish republican pals' sensitivities. 

 

RAB supports St Johnstone, only when his support does not upset his more important balaclava clad buddies. He will lie and ignore on their behalf.

Fintan O'Toole.

 

I have long admired the writings of Fintan O'Toole. These days he is a columnist for the Irish Times.

 

I recommend his book, 'After the Ball' - the story of what occurred in the Republic of Ireland after the the implosion of the Celtic Tiger. The Irish NHS went from 15,000 beds to under 4,000 as part of the cut backs brought about by Government austerity. There is a lesson for us in that tome.

 

Today, he writes on the fall out of the Irish Ladies football side choosing to sing, 'the Celtic Symphony' in wake of their deserved victory at Hampden last week. I hope RAB Cosgrove reads the piece?

 

Perhaps one of the Admin' could post the column?

I don't have too much of a issue with Irish people wanting a united Ireland, although I disagree with them.  

 

I do have a problem with anyone singing the praises of a terrorist organisation, that was responsible for the deaths of Scottish and British people, whilst they are residing in or visiting the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.  

 

The press/political set backlash to 'up the 'Ra' seems far less animated than those relating to a song which states a simple fact and then asks a reasonable question of the very same people who wish to turn a blind eye to or indeed join in with the 'up the 'Ra' chant.  

 

Must be weird living in a country you hate (and a few of the RoI women's team do reside in the UK).
