Can You Speak Out of Your Arse?

 

PQ Producers regularly ask this question when considering pundits to talk matters Sellik? 

 

Last night, Big Dick introduced a ten minute segment of fellow Dandy, Liam McLeod commentating on Rangers conceding nineteen(19) goals in this season's Champions League group games(after 5 matches). To highlight and reinforce the paucity of Rangers preparedness for CL group games, Big Dick finished by telling of BBC Alba's Alex O'Henley reporting yesterday's CL Youth group match at Firhill, it finished Rangers 2 Ajax 6. Big Dick was anxious to let us know it will not get any better any time soon, he relished taking away the hope.

 

I watched yesterday's Youth match and Rangers were 0-1 down early on, then were deservedly reduced to ten men, Rice sent off. We recovered and the ten managed to edge 2-1 ahead. Ajax equalised in the second minute of first half injury time. Ajax Youths are top notch, the second half was an exercise in finding the extra man and, deservedly ran out 2-6 winners. We know Alex O'Hanley is a good friend to Rangers? Anyways, he did NOT report the whole story and Big Dick knowingly pounced.

 

I thought I have never heard BBC Scotland report on Euro Youth games before? I listened this evening as Peter Grant, Pat Bonner, Chris Sutton, Liam McLeod, .... etc all spoke out their collective bahookie. Real Madrid defeated Angeball 5-1 and, Pat articulated amazement at the amount of chances created by Sellik. Peter was anxious to expose his bigger arse, "if Benzema was playing for Sellik, with those chances, Sellik would top the group". Sellik finished bottom of their group, just like Rangers. Sellik Youths lost 4-1 to Real Madrid today and finished bottom of the group too, but none of this was reported. I suspect South Uist born and bred Alex O'Henley was having difficulty finding his mouth/arse?

 

During his playing days, Peter was a great gesticulator. He pointed out he was NEVER to blame. Thus, if Albion Rovers had signed Benzema and created the necessary opportunities, then Coatbridge's finest would be topping a CL group. If Pat knew his arse from his elbow, he would be speaking out of his cubitus. The last time Real Madrid played a Scots club, it was fifteen months ago at Ibrox, Rangers won 2-1. Alex O'Henley failed to report this too, he was too busy flicking his green'n'grey tongue at Pat's cubitus, or was he licking Peter's arse?

 

We should be told?

This topic reminds me on a regular basis why I never listen to Sportsound. Actually, I never listen to Radio Scotland at all. Actually, I avoid the BBC as a whole whenever possible. These viewing choices are available to everyone of course but I admit to feeling fairly smug about the discretion I exercise.

[MacK1950 2,240]

Have never listened to programmes quoted and indeed only listen to Clyde2 on my car radio.This means I cannot comment on the reports mentioned and also don't have to listen to the musak crap of today.

[Gonzo79 13,736]

Rangers should revoke press privileges for the BBC, The Sun and the Daily Record.  All three are full to the brim with horrible yahoo maggots.

Jews don't Count.

 

You may have viewed David Baddiel's latest powerful documentary, 'Jews don't Count'? Given the fall out between the majority of UK Jews and the Labour Party these last couple of decades, it was not unexpected but, it was an awkward watch. Baddiel correctly lays out two millennia of anti-semitism we are all familiar with and, points out the left leaning intelligentsia find it most uncomfortable. We live in an era of heightened sensitivities and it is appalling that Jews are mostly not included in debates on racism. Baddiel points the finger of fault at the Establishment, including the BBC.

 

Baddiel accepts that his previous broadcasting history was not all that, he recognised his demonisation of Nottingham Forest's centre forward, Jason Lee strayed into racism. Baddiel blacked up, wore a pineapple on his head and, donned braiding whilst sending up the hapless player. He decided to say sorry to Lee and the filmed apology will surely be counted in the ranks of awkward TV. However, the most awkward fact remains why the Jewish experience fails to make inclusion when the Palestinian, new world Aboriginals and, Irish experiences are so well rehearsed?

 

The Establishment in Scotland is the SNP and the fawning broadcast and print media. I have long wondered how left leaning folks get away with identifying themselves as both Nationalist and Socialist? The Doyen of our intelligentsia parks his arse at BBC Scotland, the seventy year old RAB Cosgrove took umbrage at Baddiel's piece. Toting a significant multi-national property portfolio, this Michelin starred so-called.   Socialist has a column in the National and a constant PQ remit to stick it on the Rangers. The arbiter of what is acceptable in new, modern Scotland has decreed, "sorry" appears to be Baddiel's hardest word.

 

RAB utilised both his National column and weekly shows on the National broadcaster to stick it on Baddiel. Where he leads, we know the PQ Producers in their Panzers follow(not follow follow NEVER follow follow). We have a number of other shows reinforcing RAB's point. Shereen Nanjiani has Angela Haggerty and Paul McNamee on to discuss Baddiel, then there are the phone-ins(only card carrying members need call). On Off the Ball, RAB prompted Cowan through a pitch for a BBC Radio Scotland show where past Presenters could say sorry for past errors of judgement.

 

Thus, we arrived at Jim Traynor. Now, usually when Traynor is mentioned, Cosgrove informs the audience that his Scottish football nickname is, 'Jabba'. Funnily enough, RAB never explains why Rangers supporters refer to him as, 'RAB'(Rancid Auld Bigot). Anyways, RAB wants a show with Jim Traynor and Graham Spiers discussing their support of Rangers and saying, "sorry". As a Rangers supporter, I would ask why License Fee payers monies are being forked out to invite two guys no longer employed by the national broadcaster to return to discuss Rangers. Particularly since one of them, Spiers(and sons) has told us he has been a season ticket holder at Sellik Park these last four seasons. He wants to give his sons the football experience he enjoyed. Further, Traynor right back to his days on the Herald always proclaimed his love for Airdrionians.

 

Here is a better idea, take half-a-dozen still employed at PQ types, you know Chris McLaughlin, Kheredine Idessane, Tom English, Martin Dowden, ...... etc and, they can all chorus love furra Sellik and say, "sorry" for NOT loving the club enough. Even better, include RAB, Big Dick, Liam, Michael Stewart, .... etc and, you can all debate who HATES Rangers and Rangers supporters the most? More value for the License Fee payer and think of the spin offs in phone-in shows. Keep the Producers happy.

 

RAB often evokes the past on the Beeb, Rangers were without a doubt the Establishment club. If we were, surely it ended fifty years past? Further, being the Establishment club, you would think our PR might be a bit better? Even further again, being the Establishment club, why does none(zero) of the ruling party's(SNP) MSPs support Rangers? Sixty-five MSPs and none support the Establishment club. Here's a better, more appropriate pitch.

 

Put RAB in a studio and he can say, "sorry" for every time he broadcast or printed the word, 'H-U-N'. We will get David Baddiel to keep count.

Put on Radio Scotland as I was exiting the Pittodrie car park, the 10pm news was utterly joyous and put the icing on the cake.

 

It really is a moment to savour.

Garnet Symbolism.

 

Fair's fair?

 

Today's national BBC  lunchtime news bulletin contained an item on Liverpool supporters expressing concern at the tediousness of constant chants from away supports concerning the pursuit of justice for those killed at the Hillsborough Disaster. It was a two-three minute piece to camera from BBC north of England correspondent, Nick Garnett. His interview with Jurgen Klopp had already been shown, then clips of opposition fans abuse outside Anfield and, an interview with a sister of a victim of Hillsborough followed. Outside the Liverpool ground, Nick Garnett addressed the camera with, "just like Rangers supporters with the Ibrox Disaster, United fans with Munich and, Spurs support constantly being regaled with anti-semitic chants; Liverpool fans say they have had enough".

 

In a week where an element of ra Sellik away support at Ibrox once again deliberately disrupted the minute's silence for the 66, it is heartening to be reminded that NOT all the Beeb is heartless towards those that attended a game of football but failed to return home. Of course, BBC Scotland did not report, question or, discuss the actions of the Green Brigade. It is accepted, it is the way it is.

 

Thank you Nick Garnett.

It'd be funny if Prince Charles asked for Liverpool FC to be docked points because of their recent chant mocking his mother's death.
