BBC attending Antwerp presser while ignoring Rangers' is pathetic from national broadcaster

[The Dude 12,108]

Rangers' dispute with BBC Scotland sees the national broadcaster continue to refuse to send any reporters to Ibrox to cover matches or press conferences - but their appearance at Royal Antwerp manager Franky Vercauteren's pre-match presser ahead of tonight's clash with the Light Blues is pathetic from the taxpayer-funded outlet.

I like it

don't see anything wrong here 

[Number5 1,068]

Zero fucks given.

Good article, especially the bit regarding burying the hatchet. 👍🏻

[Negri's lovechild 6,126]

It is ridiculous though that a national broadcaster has spit the dummy in the way they have.

Very unprofessional from them, especially given the length of time that has passed and that it is one reporter who isn't welcome at Ibrox. 

[Moody Blue Legend 38,501]

Imagine your national broadcaster dingying their national champions elect.  Make no mistake those fuckers are spewing. 

[cr3_bear 9,263]

I get your point 

 

but also can’t help but think “Fuck them”

[AGC123 440]

I liked this bit, 

On the bright side though, it is going to be fun watching McLaughlin try to report on 55 from his wee spot outside Ibrox where the burger vans usually sit.

 

hopefully they’ll be some bear’s there to give him some hassle if he try’s it. 

[Bad Robot 12,572]

I don’t get why they need to go as surely these interviews can be done and controlled over video chat ?

[Bad Robot 12,572]

I don’t fund them anyway.

[graeme_4 13,645]

It’s not the national broadcaster. It’s the diddy Scottish sports department. Pathetic, but so is the standard of ‘journalism’ across Scotland, so it’s no surprise.

[We Will Follow Rangers 10,171]

Decent read.

 

Be amazed if the BBC downsouth aren't asking questions when they are looking to report Gerrard's first trophy as manager and the massive story of our revival and they receive footage of a specky bald gimp standing on a roundabout on his jack jones in the pissing rain whilst every other outlet has decent access and pictures.

Its an outrage these cunts are refusing to cover us fairly or even at all when ostensibly, we are forced to fund them.

thats why i refuse to pay my licence

[scotty1976 1,034]

BBC Scotland shouldn’t have the option of going to Ibrox to cover anything Rangers related.
 

We should be the ones issuing a ban until such times as we get assure that coverage will be even and balanced, an acknowledgement that this has not been the case for a number of years and a full public apology from BBC Scotland.

BBC Scotland is an embarrassment 

Sportscene is an embarrassment of a highlight show and that utter shite song they use for the intro should be enough to see the show cancelled itself

What even is that theme all about 😂 it's not even match of the day bad, it's worse with the crowd noise and that God awful commentator screeching through it😂

I want to stop my licence but I've heard they come to the door and can use bullying tactics against women when the man is working?

Absolute dog shite. Every few years they seem to change the song and I’m not sure if it gets worse or stays just as bad as it was.

Think it was Glavegas - Geraldine at one stage which was actually decent but they left that and reverted back to standard pish form  

Mind this screamer?

I don’t know if they target certain genders but I suppose they would get more aggressive in their tone if they suspect they could get away with it with maybe a lone female, pensioners, young folk etc. I’ve dealt with one who was ok and had a friendly tone like a salesman and it ended up him saying he’d get the van up 🤣

Either don’t open the door or open the door simply say no thank you and close it again. 

No need to argue with them, they have no right of entry to your property

That song wasn't too bad. Awful intro footage though. 

It at least wasn't something you would expect Glenn Michael's show to be introduced to, or some 1980's game show 😂

Don’t think I’ve ever agreed with you more. Been going so long that it’s now almost accepted. I also resent them quoting comments made to proper media.

Not acceptable from a national broadcaster.

[LochendBilly 6,205]

Good piece mate but the pedantic loyal want to know who proof read it? Taig like error in there...I'll let you find it.
