daviecooper01 826 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 OK, so I am relatively new on here, and maybe this has been discussed before.I popped over to the VB site today, and read the article about the above mentioned C4 "journo", whose interest & stories concerning Rangers are well known.One thing did stick out from the article, beyond all others (even the mocking of the 66 by the statue re-tweet). And I had never heard this used by any member of the media before, not even the more "out there" bloggers.Did Alex Thomson ever refer to Rangers or Rangers' fans as daleks? (i.e they cannot handle stairs)If anyone can point this out in any article he has written anywhere, we should be asking him why & for a full, unabridged, apology.

daviecooper01 826 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 You are fucking at it.WTF are you on about?I am asking a serious question. I don't have twitter, and TBH read as little of Thomson's "output" as possible.I would NEVER under ANY circumstances damage the memory of the 66 in any way whatsoever, but having read that today on VBhttp://www.vanguardbears.co.uk/article.php?i=19&a=have-the-principals-of-journalism-died(apologies if direct links to other sites are not allowed)"His terminology and wording when describing Rangers in the last year has included such terms as "Sevco", "RangersIA" (in administration), "Newco" and at his sickeningly worst "Daleks" - a crude comparison between the 66 victims of the Ibrox Stairway 13 tragedy and the sci-fi villains, who could not climb stairs, in the Dr Who? stories"So, as my father & uncle narrowly escaped the tragic events of that day in 1971, only finding out upon their arrival home in Ralston later that evening, I would genuinely like to find out if Thomson has ever used the term. And if so, I want to confront him about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
