26th of foot 6,119 Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Tonight's TV Guide lists Sportscene starting on BBC Scotland at 22.45hrs. The content description from PQ is thus : "Jonathan Sutherland introduces highlights from midweek Scottish Cup fixtures, including Kilmarnock v Rangers and Stenhousemuir v Aberdeen". Is PQ assuming Rangers have defeated Cowdenbeath? Is the anticipated relish at PQ such, that Cowdenbeath can be conveniently ignored and Rangers will change travel plans for Fife in favour of Ayrshire? Further, I hope PQ have informed Premier Sports, it would be quite embarrassing to have your outdoor broadcasting unit at Central Park, when they should be present at Rugby Park to satisfy PQ's preferred prejudice. Maybe, PQ continues their thrall with last Wednesday's result, they'll just show a repeat of last week's highlights? Actually, I do not think it's any of the above. The reality of PQ's 'couldnae give a flying fcuk' attitude to license fee paying Rangers supporters is right there in that particular TV listing. They've got Stenny/Aberdeen bang on, that's important. Doonhamers, the Dandies next opponents will be relieved and disappointed; they don't have to travel this evening to Pittodrie to satisfy current PQ rationale, and may not see Dobbie's hat-trick against Dundee last evening. Again, reference Rangers and Rangers supporters, piss-poor administration. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onevision 1,595 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I suppose they could have listed as Cowdenbeath v Kilmarnock just to really piss on us. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
26th of foot 6,119 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 Sound and Scene. There is a consensus abroad reference last night's refereeing at Central Park. Simply, Craig Thomson had an appalling game. There were four incidents, and Craig got them all wrong. 1. A first half armed ball by the Cowdenbeath right back, no penalty awarded. 2. Start of second half challenge with minimal contact outside the box on Cowdenbeath forward, penalty awarded. 3. Second half kick on Rangers keeper, no foul awarded since Ref' was not up with play. 4. Last minute scissor challenge on Davis inside the box, no penalty awarded. Big Dick, Liam McLeod, and Billy Dodds on BBC Scotland Sportsound agreed with Thomson on incidents 2 and 4. Incident one was an elongated discussion that culminated with, "ah seen them given". The third incident was fortunate for Rangers, if the Cowdenbeath player had gone down, it was another penalty. The only show on TV that carries no credits, Sportscene was the usual trio. Incident one was a penalty, incident two was no penalty, incident three was still a lament for the player not going down, and incident three was a split decision. This week, the hate is stronger on sound. Continuing with sonic impact; Scrote, Chris Scrote, licensed to shill's sister, Connie McLaughlin was covering the match for BBC Five Live and she concluded, the scoreline flattered Rangers, "Cowdenbeath and David Cox bossed the second half". We chucked it during the second half, it was unprofessional; but Connie sure knows how to over egg a rancid pudding. Consult your 'inner buzz' Connie, how much do you hate Rangers? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,170 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Yet another member of the travelling Irish-scoto commentating family. How do they get so many bbc jobs? I suppose the answer is that most of them are outside contractors not staff, but even so. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing on Rangers' performance, just repeated statements that we would be in deep trouble with the authorities over pitch invasions. Her hatred runs deep. Has the BBC really got nobody else to do this job??? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the BBC really got nobody else to do this job??? Should have pointed out that her input was for 5 Live, not BBC Scotland which made it worse. She certainly took her opportunity to smear us on national radio with both hands. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 26th of foot 6,119 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2019 Angela Haggerty - a young, hip, gunslinger? Angela appeared on the Shereen Nanjiani show again yesterday morning. She was accompanied by Murray McDonald and Brian Beacom. Angela was introduced as, "a journalist". As we know, Angela is a pistol packing straight shooter, always prepared to throw the weight of her HND from Cardonald College at any issue. It's the foresight and penetrative thought process that she brings to bear. Those few seconds available are precious as Angela looks injustice square in the face, her hands unholstering both six-shooters. She has completed an objective appreciation and is ready to unload on an unexpecting legitimate target. The steadying mantra of, 'Truth, Justice, and the Isle of Bute way' never fails, in the first hour both Churchill and Theresa May are gunned down. Ruthless Rothesay revenge is righteous. The final thirty minutes throws up another target, Michael Jackson. The King of Pop is straying into Angela's sight lines. The subject matter is, 'Leaving Neverland'; a four hour documentary that is unequivocating in accusing Jacko of heinous child rape and molestation. Dan Reid's film premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival. All the reviews proclaim a most convincing case. A brooding Angela has just stepped down from the Cal-Mac ferry in Wemyss Bay, adjusted her white hat against the glinting winter sun, and is intent on righting the badest of wrongs. Ennio Morricone music completes the ambiance, the bass notes offer a backdrop to the sharpness of Angela's jingling spurs(HND earned). Murray McDonald is hesitant, he likes Jacko's music, whereas Brian Beacom acknowledges growing up amid a whacko soundtrack. Angela is unhesitating, she draws and sustains a withering fire. Society must take a stand, Jackson is visual, you must see him to hear him. An instantaneous reload effected, suppressed flame cuts through the gathering smoke; "it's right to remove Jimmy Saville from old episodes of Top of the Pops", and, "there's a price to pay". Angela dismisses the Jackson Estate's claims of no conviction, "his music should be removed". The strength of Angela's convictions are quite heartening. Here is a hip, young gunslinger determined to adhere to principle. Thus, three former Sellik Boys' Club Chairmen were convicted of child rape and molestation in three separate trials in six weeks before Christmas. Angela knows her Bhoys' football, it was late summer on the very same show, she cited St Cadoc's BC winning a trophy in Holland as her 'moment of the week'. Further, pulling the pin on the white phosphorous grenade that is Jimmy Saville, proves Angela can remove all the oxygen from the air. The Happy Eater entrance vestibule at Sellik Park awaits, Angela will stride purposefully through and ensure society takes a stand? 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Frankie 8,663 Posted February 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2019 Interesting Sportscene video commentaries from Liam McLeod over recent days. Apparently 'justice was done' when Tav missed his 2nd spot-kick on Saturday. Meanwhile, with the benefit of super slo-mo, McLeod thought 2 of the other 3 were out the box. 'Controversial' was McLeod's byword. Fair enough, he's not wrong. Weirdly though, the same commentator and organisation didn't think two fairly clear RFC penalties were even worthy of footage in the game against Cowdenbeath. Neither was the home side's penalty which was very soft and outside the box discussed as controversial or described as an injustice. Now, it's obvious I'm biased when it comes to analysing incidents for & against my club. Even so, I'm honest enough to admit, 3 of the 4 awards from Saturday were controversial & will split opinion. However, surely I should expect the same fairness and integrity from the BBC and their commentator. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
