You can't have it both ways. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,294 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) You're right, buster. I'd probably commit suicide if I didn't have this thread. If I can offer an analogy: I'm very glad that there are proctologists around but I have no idea why anyone would want to investigate an anus. 🙄 Edited May 21, 2022 by Gonzo79 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He introduced one Jane Dougall in Seville to describe events there which she did stony faced. Reference was made to success in Barcelona and failure in Manchester. The presenter duly gave her the chance to comment on the trouble in Manchester. Dougall said: ”I was there. I was witness to two hundred and fifty thousand Rangers fans who rioted, it’s fair to say, in the city centre” What? She counted them? And they all rioted? One of my boys was there and he didn’t riot nor anything like it. BBC will be getting a letter in the morning. Meanwhile perhaps @26th of footcould tell me if Dougall has previous? Watched BBC World 24 in my hotel in Malaga on the Tuesday night, it was the leady story of the programme not the sports segment but the whole programme. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I have ever heard Cosgrove in his Off the ball slot, to be so transparently bitter, contrived ('Barack Obama running a bus' involved) and desperate to push a customary narrative,......and that is saying something. After nineteen years, the batteries of the Suville calculator have finally run out. Yesterday, Cosgrove said the Suville calculator "...is dead, no-one cares about it anymore...". Apparently he is sick of over-exaggeration and it took 19 years until the threshold was reached, so he had to comment and call time on such a device. Obviously, he didn't send this memo to Jane Dougall and her line about 250,000 rioting in Manchester. They seem to want it both ways.
