Rangers relax BBC ban when cash is at stake

953

Rangers today relaxed their ban on the BBC, issued after a documentary with contributions from two former Rangers directors was screened last month.  The BBC booked a paying gig at Ibrox for this afternoon’s game against Dundee United, if Rangers stuck to their principles they would have missed a media payment from the SPL.

Tune in to BBC Scotland this afternoon and listen to the sound of licence payers’ money strut its stuff from Ibrox.

    Recently at work I was asked to adjust something…” By how much ? ” I enquired of my “customer” …

     

     

    ” about a ‘ baw hair! ” he replied…

     

     

    Glasgow … Measurements.. Thing was, I knew what he meant.. And it worked a treat..

  3. I think the time has come on a well refreshed Saturday evening to join in the spirit of this particularly mind expanding forum by asking the pertinent question….

     

     

    Who’s a pretty boy ?

    The most exacting tolerance I’ve ever been required to work to is a wrinkle on a pimple on a gnat’s left baw.

    Paul, Just watched Thursdays match on Celtic t V.

     

     

    Having the comments on here I expected a grat performance in the second half.

     

     

    Not in my opinion,,as much as I hope and pray they beat Motherwll tomorrow I am not to confident.

     

     

     

    O K the team worked really hard, but skill wise I dont think they are anything special.

     

     

    M court is a passenger,, Matthews has to be played at right back.

     

     

     

    As Ledley is not fit have to go with Kayal and the young african lad.

     

     

     

     

    Comons is a must, but not on the wing, just of Stokes.

  7. We were not allowed to win the league the last 3 seasons, end of story.

     

     

    Now of PL had spent squillions and lost the league as we would have, the self same would be calling for his head.

     

    This is coming from a non board lover, but I’m no stoopit enough that I can’t see what’s in front of my eyes.

    meanwhile we`ve got Bangura …who couldn`t worry bovine posterior with a four stringed instrument

     

     

    he was half the price tho ……pennywise pound foolish

  9. Big Packie's Accent on

    Excuse my ignorance, but I’m hoping one of you fine fellows can explain to me.

     

     

    WTF does parity of esteem mean?

  10. Springhill Bhoy on

    Paul,, missed some Just of Stokes. Now I dont rate Stokes, Having seen him at Sheffield United a couple of seasons ago,several times, he was very poor.

     

     

     

    Sammie like Commons is a must.

     

     

     

    Come on the Celtic

    Found this pic hilarious of the huns protesting outside the BBC

     

     

    How can you be taken seriously with this banner

     

     

    http://www.snspix.com/image/detail_5752605.jpg

     

     

    Brilliant….

     

     

    Bigoted

     

    Biased

     

    Corrupt

     

     

    Even while protesting against the BBC ( ironically while CW sells them out an takes the bbc pound ) they still find time to give their the scottish refs a mention.

  12. Big Packie……………

     

     

    what they are trying to convey is that they want to be treated equally …to whom i`m unsure …when one considers that they are a supremacist organisation …it`s more than a touch ironic

     

     

    esteem however is misused …………..an attempt at being smart …failed badly …eejits

  13. How do you square (nudge,nudge) the notion of parity of esteem with Walter’s much quoted comment about the air of Protestancy supremecy pervading Poundland?

    Cheers bud, thought I’d ask in-case i missed it.

     

     

    Parity and esteem, sounds oxymoron-ish.

     

     

    Peculiar people.

  15. For those scunnered by all rungs x factor, Jaws has just started on itv4.

     

     

    A fantastic movie, no matter how often you have seen it.

     

     

    Also a surprisingly good book, if you ever get the chance.

    Parity of esteem” is a phrase used in political philosophy to explain a theory to overcome inter-communal conflict. Promoters of the theory argue that “parity of esteem” “offers a language for negotiation of a post-conflict equilibrium.” This negotiation begins with the communities recognising the stalemate of their position. Rather than continue trying to out-do each other, the communities should attempt to negotiate a peaceful coexistence in a shared physical space

     

     

    I dont think the huns had the above in mind for there banner though ;)

    Parity of esteem

     

     

    From the Oxford English dictionary and I quote-

     

     

    “Were that chokin tae win the European cup that were gaun intae administration because of it”

  18. Ernesto

     

     

    It is the idiom of the arrogant, indulged and……..threatened, protestant supremacy.

     

     

    About as funny as an Orange ‘parade’.

     

     

    I hope they keep at it.

  19. Big Packie

     

     

    still trying to work out who they think the BBC hold in esteem to want parity with them …certainly isnae CFC

  20. Getting drunk now.

     

    Was Moses the son of Pharoah’s daughter, ..or the daughter of Pharoah’s son ?

     

     

    Simple things can become very complicated.

     

     

    First correct answer wins a pint of his choice in any pub except Babbity’s.

     

    I live on a limited budget.
