I've not had a TV for years ... as you say why should most people be forced to bank roll this mob 

Yeh, pretty much agree. I am also surprised that it was allegedly 75% vote for it. Apart fro them and ourselves I really don’t see why any of the smaller teams in the league (basically them all) who don’t have the same quality in depth of squad would be in favour of handing over such an advantage…

It's pointless trying to win this sort of thing with the bbc because it's paid for by taxation ... what commercial station could alienate half its audience for 10 years?

Ideal if you have lightweight players that have already played a full season.................

I think amateurish is giving the governance in this league too much credit.

Gollum got hold of the Match Commanders report and hammered the 2 Rangers Fans arrested for sectarian singing line. He’s never previously asked for the report at any other game. We were right to revoke his press privileges. 

Yes I remember that, a great performance and really enjoyable game, there was a real feel good factor afterwards. I remember watching McLaughlin in equal measures of amazement and disgust bypassing the great football and reporting on some alleged non-incident in a car park I think. I was in mixed company and one of the non Rangers supporting lads even commented how ridiculous and out of order he was…

Current dispute is longer than that. I'm sure it goes back to when we played hibs in the championship and gollum reported something about the fans that was false. His press privileges at Ibrox were then revoked and the bbc decided they would no longer send reporters to Ibrox.

One “journalist” (McLaughlin) has had his press privileges removed (as opposed to a ban) because of his consistent bias.
His reporting of the 6-2 win at Easter Road was embarrassing and that prompted the removal of his privileges for the second time. He had already had this sanction previously but was given a second chance. His report on the Hibs game proved that he could only contain his bile for so long.
The game was in August, glorious sunshine, pitch in fantastic condition and two teams who should really have been in the top tier. It was a wide open game, great football from both sides and eight goals. It was actually quite close for most of the game, despite the final score line, a couple of late goals flattered us a little.
Hugely positive advertisement for the Scottish game, plenty to enthuse about - but Gollum spent nearly all of his match report chuntering on about the terrible songs that the evil Rangers supporters were singing.
His privileges were withdrawn and the BBC opted not to send anyone in his place. If they couldn’t have their preferred bigot, then they would send no one.
At no stage has any reporter from the BBC or the BBC as an organisation ever been banned from Ibrox.
Personally I think it is unacceptable that the national broadcaster is allowed to be vindictive towards one particular club and, yes, I do miss hearing the thoughts of our manager and players.
Should have been resolved years ago but God knows when it will be sorted.
The cunts hate us, it’s that simple.

The hypocrisy is astounding, I have no doubt had the opinion been favourable they would have been promoting the journalists confirmation of the players ability as fact, the thin veneer of subjectivity that he once applied (on occasion) is really wearing thin.
As for Gordon Duncan, initially imo a breath of fresh air which had rapidly descended in to an apologist on all things negative celtic, and all to happy to ‘play devils advocate’ in negativity towards Rangers (like I said imo). He may very well be a Motherwell fan, but obviously one of the many who favours that lot over us, goodness knows why?….

It looks like he’s leaving and I think I speak for everyone when I say it’s been an absolute pleasure having a model professional like Jermain Defoe as our number 9.
He’s ‘got it’ since he walked through the door and he did what he set out to do by bringing the league trophy home to its rightful place. He’s been an objectively brilliant signing for us and scored many important goals for the club - including a landmark goal against the scum.
He’s one of my favourite Rangers players of the modern era who we got to enjoy in the twilight of his outstanding career.
Wish him all the very best & he’ll always be welcome back to Ibrox. He leaves with his head held high as a good Rangers man.

Agree with this mate but you can bet every one of their MSP supporters (literally the majority imo) would have picked up the phone to her or her office following the statement release by them on the postponement to try and apply the pressure to do so…

Dont believe a word of it myself just a convenient narrative put out to cover where his true allegiances lie, although how effective this is may be open to opinion at the very least.
Couldn't possibly have allegations of bias levelled against snyde could they.

I'm not disagreeing with that , tarriers have history of getting games postponed to suit them, but to say the snp brought these restrictions in because they had injuries and players out with covid is just ridiculous. 

There was never enough data to allow it in the first place mate. She's got this one spectacularly wrong.
