Oh I know what JT is. I too would prefer to have another PR spokesman. However, this forum is full of comments wanting some response from the club about the bbc bias and an end to dignified silence so it’s fair to acknowledge when they get it right.

Gman36 3,455 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I hope we've got more objective evidence than just this. This isn't enough to prove the bias. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc holliday 1,653 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 'We can demand the BBC respect us and our club'.....absolutely agree. We have a significant role to play in taking the BBC to task in their treatment of our club on TV, radio and other platforms like Twitter and their 'selectivity' and clearly evidenced bias and negativity about all things 'Rangers'.

That's not how propaganda campaigns work. If we ever get someone on to give some of our side, I can gaurentee they bring in some nutter who can't speak properly and looks like a howling moon unit.

If it isn't , then it typifies just how shite we are in the PR battle . How do we expect to put our point across to the outside world of the imbalance of reporting , when we can't even be arsed telling our own support ? For what it's worth I thought it a good interview , my only concern is we haven't seen enough of them through the years when we needed defended . I know a lot of people don't like JT , but I can remember his days in the press and he can be quite acerbic when he wants . Unfortunately, we've seen too little of it throughout his time at Rangers .

scottyscott1963 18,293 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Hope his next interview is with a National news outlet and let them know the fenian who started this has had to apologise for telling lies. The tramp Clarke has made an apology in the DR when he was called out about the Rangers mangers position. Who would believe a fuckin liar. Still think the manky looking cunt should be getting a lawyers letter to force him to retract his other whopper that Rangers didn't sign catholics. he is a self confessed LIAR.

Why it isn't on our official youtube page and RTV is mental. Yet another example of us playing this game terribly. We should have someone from the club go back through the past 7 years and build a comprehensive dossier on our treatment from the authorities and the media, and get Stevie G to release it to some of his English pals as it would never see the light of day if released in Scotland. It's been obvious for years that we are treated to a different standard than every other team. It goes back to silly things like refs in the lower divisions admitting they let other teams off with stuff against Rangers because we were much quicker and more technical, so theygave the lower league players the benefit of doubt..... to the SFA,SPL, and member clubs shitting out of making the correct decision on our fate due to percieved backlash against them from fans.... right up the modern example of the BBC admitting that they would like to come and commentate on our games again ( for nothing more than ratings) but they want to treat us to a different standard by not interviewing our players after the match. Sick of it all. They are all cunts. Billythebear77, SeparateEntityMyArse, scottyscott1963 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he was good in that interview, and yes he also has written a lot of shite about our Club and fans in the past, BUT he should be let loose now through the RTV channel and give some much needed fight back.
