Bear78 96 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I didn't contact them via twitter, there was e-mails & phone calls, so I'm 19 and a bird, I have a decent grasp of the BBC bias, the unbridled scum that get a voice on the BBC weekly, Tommy etc.Whats wrong with me getting an angle as a bird to voice my support ??It's the camera angles that undermine you as they play right into the sexist attitudes you mention. Give that up, write a good blog, get enough support and the angle is yours I admire the spirit and can't think of any females who do this, so best of luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben10 2,294 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 No, it wasn't a rebuke. Why did you think it was? Guilty conscience?And back to confused .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54andcounting 627 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I don't really think I was giving her stick though. Just voicing some opinions.Did not mention you! you said to another poster "Guilty conscience"? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue68 2,497 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 The fact that some are laying into this girl is nothing short of a disgrace. Regardless of what you think, she is a good Bear and doing her best to fight our corner. Are most of you jealous you did not think of trying to put some effort into defending our club? I'm backing The Godfather now. Govanblue can fuck right off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are most of you jealous you did not think of trying to put some effort into defending our club?I can only speak for myself, and I hope Bogtrotters has taken it on board that this is not a personal attack. The bottom line for me, and call me old fashioned, chauvanistic, misogynistic or whatever, but I am just not comfortable at the thought of a 19 year old lass fighting our corner, on a station we already know to be biased in the extreme. If they were prepared to let her on, I fear it would have been to round on her in a more patronising way than I ever could. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Walters 206 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I wouldn't even try reasoning with BBC Scotland, they are riddled with republican minded filth.Best scenario would be for the Scotland branch to be closed permanently.

WVB 2,560 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 No problem, though at times she has posted more intelligently than some of those in this thread. Her intelligence is not in doubt. But with age comes experience, and she was talking about being on air with a pair of experienced Rangers hating liars, and it would be them who had control of the microphones, the questions, the editing. etc.They are cowards who will hand pick their victims. If they were happy to have her on, they would have had an ulterior motive. Its the BBC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she wouldn't be the only one doing that.You may remember a similar thread we were both involved in when I was questioning people 'speaking for fans' which you didn't seem to have an issue with, or at least remained indifferent towards. Something you could not restrain yourself from doing in this thread.And I didn't notice anyone reporting they are 'speaking for the fans' in this example either. Just someone who shared a story ? Are you beginning to understand my confusion ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz92 966 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Bogtrotters spends most of her time on OT. Nothing against her, but I don't want her on national media speaking for Rangers fans.I genuinely don't think I've ever seen her in there in the past 6 months?
