bluepeter 5,627 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'd call him a blogger.Whenever there's a Leggat article on here people say "Leggat say this", "Leggat says that". They never say "Journalist says this". I was expectig something different from the title.You can call him anything you want, but Leggat is a journalist. I'm not the biggest fan of his writing style, and I wish he'd employ a proofreader, but he uncovers a lot of interesting stuff (even if TheWeissMan beat him to this one) and he is working to defend Rangers and the fans. He should be applauded for that if nothing else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,622 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Cause this place is full of self loathing Rangers fans that have Guilt complexes cause they have bought into the mhedias anti Rangers propaganda.I think half them salivate over the gobblegivers blogs to be honest reading their posts.Any posts recently against celtic has the same wee trolls on them rubbishing the claims.

Martin Luther 53 Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 In saying the Weissman beat him to it You dont know maybe he was double checking as I suspect the great unwashed are more intent on scrutinising his blog rather than a anonymous poster on here.Anyway my point is it has been out there for a while and yet no majors have run with it.

Why is it when someone has something to say about Rangers that is positive do we always get the same responses on here.Because they don't want to upset either thier tarrier friends or the current zeitgeist; Rangers = bad, C*ltic = oppressed.

The difference in the change of ownership is staggering, in a hugely positive way. Its very easy to get information like this to Whyte it would seem.
