He played for Arsenal for the majority of his career, them picking a picture of him a Rangers top is intentional to bring our name down, regardless of the pish about ‘owning’ photos etc. The fact anycunt is defending them is just dugshite. Exactly my thought, fuck sake, usually one is enough, think they have done that so they can throw in the picture of him in a Rangers top, we say something about it and they just say we'll we put four pictures of him up at random, aye rite, four fucking pictures indeed.

PRW. 5,631 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 22 minutes ago, The Dude said: They have. It breaks the image up a wee bit more and makes it more visually appealing with multiple images since the headline is pretty weak. Given that he never played up here, an image of him in a Rangers is a handy one to keep around incase he was ever linked - and any photographer will have been right in about that m photo at the time with the same idea. It’s a good photo to have got at the time. He’s hardly likely to have shone in the match itself and been photographed. So there won’t be that many they own. I wouldn’t be surprised if the images in the it are the entirety of their Eboue images. Jesus christ. You 100% don’t even believe what you are typing. That post man. Tragic mate.

Cheers for proving exactly what I’ve been saying Still doesn’t answer why the fuck they need to use one of him in a Rangers top when he has never had any sort of affiliation with Rangers.

You think its the same thing to use a photo of him in a strip of a club he is most commonly associated with (I couldn’t name another club he played for) and was at for 8 year, to using a photo of him in a Rangers top, who he has zero association with, in a paper that Rangers fans boycott?

More photos makes it visually more appealing and gives it more chances of a click. It’s also a style the record appear to use with some stories. So what you’re saying is, they need to get hits, so let’s use this photo of him in a Rangers shirt ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not particularly. Absolutely could be, but normally it’s something which will catch the eye since the headline isn’t likely to.
