He slipped up on a public forum, it's as simple as that and quite franky your excuses are a nonsense. That's nonsensically hilarious and a truly wonderful conspiracy theory, great stuff!

It's seen as acceptable, while id rather everyone wasn't so offended by it, the word fenian is seen as highly offensive whereas the word h** is simply seen as a harmless word for Rangers fans. Id obviously rather it was as it used to be and neither caused the reaction they do now but it isn't the case and there really isn't a level playing field or at least any clarity on what constitutes an offence as such. In this particular case the journo should be done off his employees simply for being an idiot, no idea how in this day and age you could be so daft as to do that.

In fact, "up to our knees in Saville blood" sounds good to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanjo 26,394 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I Love the people who give it all "the police cannot trace me i have a fake profile" it's even funnier when they realise the morning after, one warrant stronger, what IP Trace means.

hummington 52 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Given his paper's barely disguised contempt of all things Rangers, it was only a matter of time before this happened. Interesting to see what action if any is taken by the management at the paper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 The stupid prick knew exactly what Hunboy meant. Anything that comes from this is entirely his own fault, maybe he should be writing about the stupid law that he has fallen foul of and why it's absolutely no sense.

WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Second Tier Gers – they’ll know exactly who’s coming back next season, those horrible, horrible kafflik trash. Really, the inbred, indoctrinated minority deprives our country. What exactly have those minority contributed to our country? Absolutely nothing – no benefit, only division! Whilst still claiming to hold allegiance to a nearby country, after 20 (twenty) generations since they arrived here, needing our help, with food, clothing and personal hygiene. If I was one of those immigrants, I’d have done anything within my power to be disassociated from the faminists and their country. I’d have changed my surname, converted to a free religion and joined my new nation instead of being a parasite and taking from it. The timmigrant – always offended, and always unpleasant.

Ryju84 3,170 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I'm only stumped that a sports journalist in Scotland doesnt know the word h** is offensive... Anyone with no interest in football, but works with Rangers or Celtic fans in their office/factory/shop/warehouse etc knows that h** and fenian are deemed as offensive.

They need to be held to the same 'standards' they seem overly keen to impose on us. As for his 'I didn't know' excuse he is a 'journalist' and they are prone to lying to suit their own purposes. I have no doubt the journalist knew exactly what he did - but really who gives a fuck - this tit for tat shite leads to this type of permanently offended outlook dome Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone using h** knowingly is a bigot and should have their collar felt by plod. This guy deleted the tweet and apologised, claiming not to know it had any sectarian connotations. We can't assume every football writer wants to cast sectarian slurs against us and when an individual retracts their comments and produces multiple apologies I'm not sure what more he could do. Seems fair enough TBH. Not buying his apollogy for a second tbh, he is trying to save his arse after fucking up. Put the shoe on the other foot for a second, imagine it was a Rangers supporting journo, and editor of a paper has said "calm down fenianboy" to someone on twitter. THe guy would be out of a job faster than he could say " I wa hacked" so no, not fair enough. Fuck him, fuck his opinions, and I hope he loses his position at the paper.
