andy steel 0 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 The thing is, when referring to the OldCo there are loads of expressions Spence could use which would needle us but which we'd be hard put to deny: the club which went into liquidation, the club which collapsed, the scandal hit club which imploded and so on...just about the only expression anyone could use which is actually inaccurate is that the club died, since everything which has happened since (including the ongoing obsession of the likes of Jim) shows that it most certainly did not. It's just another example of someone who is not at home using words making a living from them. A sad reflection on the standards expected in the media in general nowadays, I fear, when people who are barely one notch above the pub bore are considered good enough to get on the radio. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,731 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Sackable offence surely. They've all been told before about this so yes some form of disciplinary action required here 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,651 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Admire the people complaining (and I will as well) but we'll get nowhere unless the club follow through with legal action. BBC Scotland refuse to admit we're the same club. It's as simple as that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 6,114 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Since last summer, Jum Spence has often prefaced any broadcast comment on Rangers with, "I am saying this from the SAFETY of the east coast". Jum has immersed himself in the warm waters of victimhood. It's a mind set shared with Rhienart, Tom, Stu', ........... etc. Often, they indulge in a bit of triumphalism, enjoy a good snigger, then feign exasperation at those they have offended having the gall to possess sensitivities. Jum is a former Law Lecturer, a communicator whom says what he means, means what he says. His piece will have been calculated, whether the east coast guarantees his safety fantasy is open to question; however, his Producer yesterday was Tom Connor. Stydome season ticket holder, Tom provides the necessary safety for Jum to swagger. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy steel 0 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 He may have been a lecturer, but, as the last 4 years of university have shown me, that's no guarantee of either intelligence or the ability to communicate. He's a dimwit whose inability to use the language with the care a broadcaster ought to shines through every time he approacheth a microphone. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
