Popular Post cooponthewing 1,139 Posted September 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2018 There should be no meeting half way and no compromise in the PR war. When this is over we should not stop. When we are back on top we should proactively chase everyone of them for their lies and attempts do destroy us. No retreat, no backing down, we go after them all. There spurious fictional reporting has been designed to harm both club and supporters. It’s not just the BBC, but they, along with the DR are the biggest haters out there. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are past feeling stupid. They just don't give a shit about rangers or their supporters. Expand 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else is not only craven but pointless. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I mean is that we might have the capability, but if we don't have the rights it wont happen. Expand I'm no expert but I think you'll find radio rights are much less strictly applied than TV. In any case we'll not know unless someone looks into it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not beyond the wit of both organisations to come up with a statement that allows both to save face and allows supporters to enjoy proper coverage of their club again. Intransigence just means no one moves forward. Expand A statement? Seriously, do you really think the current situation is going to be resolved by a f**king "statement". Get a grip of yourself. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo 7,848 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 We should bring back the club newspaper extolling all things Rangers , as for that lot at the BBC I would rather have wax in my ears . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The B.B.C. is taking issue with the fact that we revoked privileged access to McLaughlin. If you really think that there are alternatives then it would be great if you could describe them for us. Expand The issue just now is about losing face. Both the BBC and Rangers have taken up positions that make compromise difficult without one looking like it's 'backed down'. If Rangers were to announce they'd reinstated media credentials to Chris McLaughlin they'd take a lot of criticism from a decent percentage of the support. If the BBC announced they'd decided to send someone else they'd be criticised too by some staff, external voices, other club's supporters and so on. Yet, fixing this is really quite straightforward in my opinion. The BBC agree to cover Rangers in the same way they cover every other side and the problem is solved. The issue is then how to 'sell' that to our support and those who who support the BBC's stance. That's where 'the statement' comes in. Both parties should be able to word something that allows both to save face, appeases those who don't want compromise or agreement and then all the rest of us who simply want normal coverage of our football club, coverage we've paid for and continue to pay for, can get on with things. It's not in anyone's interests this carries on indefinitely, particularly not the Rangers support who are the only people being properly inconvenienced here. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
