Brian Fantana 28,894 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Why does the Rangers page contain a story of a hit and run driver as the main article?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 The story is also on the STV site and the headline is "Rangers fan who killed woman in hit and run after games is jailed" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems irrelevant given the nature of the incident. Rangers fan who killed woman in hit-and-run after match is jailedAn engineer who killed a woman in a hit-and-run after a Rangers game before claiming he was a "careful driver" has been jailed for three years.John Henderson struck and then ran over Audrey Gray after he had been at Ibrox stadium in May 2013.Henderson and others had not long left Ibrox stadium where Rangers had celebrated winning the Division Three title.

1690tamRFC 5,001 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 There is absolutely no need for this to be related to the Rangers page on either of those websites, fucking scumbags. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Yeah I couldn't get my head round this either.Fair enough he was on his way back from Ibrox but the fact he's a Rangers fan is totally irrelevant, it's not a Sport's story. A woman has tragically lost her life due to a careless driver who failed to stop.If I hit someone with my car on the way back from ASDA and was jailed for it, would it be reported as "ASDA shopper jailed" or coming back from anywhere for that matter. Ridiculous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

macranger 296 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Nothing new there mate. Just like the papers who always seem to find a picture of someone wearing a Rangers top if they've been up in court or arrested for something. Scum.

FrozenTundras 120 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Looks like it's now been moved...http://www.bbc.co.uk...l/teams/rangersI sent a complaint through their website pointing out that this story had nothing to do with RFC, so why was it posted as lead story on the RFC page? No email confirmation of course, but at least they changed it.Sooner or later the penny will drop among the heid yins, and whoever's responsible will get their jotters.

Dutchy 1,200 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 If they did that for every fault septic fans are guilty of, the page would be massive. What it's got to do with sport, other than were he's BEEN is totally irrelevant and shouldn't be in the RANGERS section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
