K.A.I 36,183 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Trial by TV is shite I've always hated the way it's basically TV companies and pundits that decide if you get punished but maybe Warburton should concentrate on the pish he signed especially the defence he neglected ... Craigan is not the one to have a go at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Well played Warburton. We, as fans are always looking for our club to stand up for Rangers, especially against the mhedia and this is exactly what he's done here, called them on their utter-desperation to show all things anti-Rangers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onefootwillie 1,518 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Quite right, too long have we kept quiet. We should be challenging anything that is unfair or incorrect.

jim beam 2,188 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Aye he is right to highlight the "sporting integrity" part of it the rest is blah blah. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMax399 3,685 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Even if Craigan hadn't highlighted it, Chris Mutton was all over it in commentary anyway, and I suspect it would have ended the same way regardless. MW is free to push back on this but I still feel we have bigger problems in other areas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I don't understand, Kiernan being out the team is going to improve us, so is Craigan's conflicting interest one of helping us? Warburton should be happy about this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
californiadreamin52 339 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Rangers more than other clubs seem to appear more on Trial by TV. Justic can only seen to be done if it includes all the clubs or abandon all together Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude 20,026 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Doesn't matter who the pundit was, it would have been highlighted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 2 minutes ago, The Dude said: Doesn't matter who the pundit was, it would have been highlighted. I could be wrong too but would there not be a producer who works out their halftime segments too? Or the presenter asking the pundits their opinions I haven't seen the coverage so could be wrong but I'd be amazed if Craigen had it in for us he's always been fair IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given it was mentioned in the live commentary there was no chance it wasn't going to be looked at again by the pundits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the presenter asking the pundits their opinions I haven't seen the coverage so could be wrong but I'd be amazed if Craigen had it in for us he's always been fair IMO It's not that he had it in for us, but that he's a Motherwell coach and by being so vocal about the incident he could influence the decision of the compliance officer - which would then mean Kiernan would miss the Motherwell game. That said, I've normally found him to be one of the fairer pundits - but your really only comparing against Sutton, Stewart and Butcher.

insider 123 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 We all saw the Incident, either by being at the match, or like myself on the telly. No matter who was speaking at half time the Incident would have been brought up. There is probably only one person who can say with 100% certainty if it was a punch or a shove and that's Keirnan himself.. The rest of us can only guess.

Bears r us 30,771 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Always good for someone from our Club having a go at anyone I wish it would happen more often, but having seen it a few times the only person to blame for being done for this is, Kiernan himself.
