WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 See, i agree with this. Gillivan should be pulled up for pretty much everything he writes. The chasing of the Sun was completely justified and a great result achieved. The hounding of Piarra Powar or whatever his name is was justified. Paul Elliott as well. Thomson for a lot of his other stuff. All worthy causes.But when we take a really tenious link to something and rant and rave about it then you start to undo some of the great work.You move from justifiable cause to paranoid ramblings in one swoop. AT is an enemy of RFC - his every word, (which will never be favourable), must be challenged. BTW - Aluko - what you are suggesting is subjective, who makes the judgement to contest or not.With what we've been thru' and the obvious hatred that exists, i'd rather highlight to the enth degree wherever these miserable immigrants are vocable to our club and supporters.Finally - as i mentioned above, the family of those deceased and injured, deserve to have our support.

BTW - Aluko - what you are suggesting is subjective, who makes the judgement to contest or not.So when he is discussing the shooting of the British/Iraqi guy in France, we should make some tenious link and challenge him for his comments? What about his reporting from Syria ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mongoose 1,007 Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 We can say something, or say nothing. And saying nothing did not do us much good.We must stand up, and speak up - our club is/has been crucified. And that is over and above the family of the 66 & the 100 injured.Spot on....if the Tims hadn't kicked up so much fuss about The Famine Song then we would still be singing it ( Although I prefer the words to 4 Men had a dream anyway) not only that The Billy Boys and others would still be sung at their rightful ground.The time for ignoring them is Over...They didn't go home!

billmcmurdo 462 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Ive read a few of your blogs and some are spot on, some not so much. Ive never felt compelled to criticise any of your blogs in the past which if nothing else means you are miles ahead of Leggo. You got this one woefully wrong, but it is my opinion.You do lose some credibility though by using Leggo as backing you up. If you are a regular reader of this place then you will have seen that Leggos stature has went down the drain rapidly recently, though a couple of recent blogs at least suggested that he had calmed down a little.It might help if you look again at the tweets and recognise the many contributions from all over the UK which clearly indicate the topic of discussion was not Rangers related.I actually suspect from reading a few of your posts on here that you now realise that you may have made an error but feel you can justify your error by using "aye but" statements about apparent previous form.A convinced author wouldnt feel the need to I didn't say Leggo backed me up. I said he, along with others - some of whom have more knowledge than yourself as regards the background- came to a conclusion AT was having a snide dig.The day I go through this or any other forum to see if what I blog will meet the approval of others is the day I chuck it. Especially "friendly" fire shootists like yourself.As for being convinced about something, I am very sure that the same compliment I gave Alex Thomson on my blog about how good a baiter he is applies equally to yourself.

Im sure all of the previous times i have agreed you would be happy to carry on and accept any of my opinions. The minute i disagree with one, you resort to snide digs.Well done you.

GeneralCartmanLee 313 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 As the guy who wrote the piece let me throw my tuppence in.I wasn't familiar with the Dalek thing. I think I may have heard it but, not being a massive fan or collector of Ibrox Disaster jokes it's not one I would earmark for the after-dinner circuit.It was a good source - a trusted bluenose - who tipped me off to its meaning.I subsequently made some further enquiries and discovered it was a known slur among the dhims.My source also told me that Thomson learned it from a Celtic blogger - not 3 Names - he is known to hang around with.This man has previously been outed on the old FF forum as using this sick joke.If a tree falls in the forest and no-one hears it, does it make a sound?If there is a joke you haven't heard, does it exist?As Shane says, when you put the credibility of a PROVEN Disaster-mocker and Rangers-hater like Alex Thomson above that of fellow bluenoses, it's a sad day.This isn't said in arrogance but you sometimes have to accept that when myself and other bloggers say certain things we know a wee bit more than we actually say.That said, we can get it wrong.Thomson has wriggle room in this story, that's for sure.But it keeps the pressure up on Rangers' enemies, of which he is one for even surer.Yeah let's use the stadium disaster to keep the pressure on our enemies...disgusting.....you would make a good football agent with These morals....You and furious are far more part of he problem than the solution....you drag us down to there level....Take the fight to them...morons with a keyboard more like...
