Evening Times Defends Man Bit By Police Dog In Manchester Riots...

[Carntyne]

Evening Times reporter Deborah Anderson has written a sympathetic piece in today's paper under the heading..."Fan Tells Of Dog Horror."

I've sent Deborah the following letter....


Hi Deborah,

I expect your email box will be overflowing by this time, pointing out that the time honoured tenets of journalism, namely how, when, what, where and why, have been sadly neglected in your report on convicted murderer Alex Aikenhead.

The sympathetic piece on Aikenhead was naive in the extreme. Did you not think to delve into his background before writing such drivel, or were you in too much of a hurry to excuse the nauseating behaviour of Scotland's Shame, namely Ran.gers and their obnoxious fans?

I think instead you could have expressed concern for the welfare of the police dog who bit Aikenhead.

You will be relieved to learn that Rover is fit and well and recovering in intensive care.

I hope your career in journalism is a short one.

Regards,

Etc. Etc.

Hate mail?

For me that was fairly polite!

When Ranger.s fans were involved in pitched battles with police in Italy, they blamed 'heavy handed policing' for the trouble.

When Ranger.s fans were involved in pitched battles with police in Barcelona, they blamed 'heavy handed policing' for the trouble.

And now when Ranger.s fans are involved in pitched battles with police in Manchester, guess what?

Yes, they again blame 'heavy handed policing' for the trouble!

The club itself can't even get it's excuses right.

Martin Bain, with what I thought was a bit of a smirk, claimed that the trouble was caused, not by Ranger.s fans, but "by those who don't normally attach themselves to the club" whatever that means.

Perhaps this is Ranger.s Football Club's version of "Big Boys Did it And Ran Away!"

Hot on the heels of this canard, we had David Murray stating that...

"Any Ranger.s fan found guilty of these acts...(which Bain said Ranger.s supporters did not commit)...would be banned from Ibrox."

Just how is this possible if as Bain claims, it wasn't Ranger.s fans who were involved in the rioting in the first place?

Excuses, excuses.

Scotland's Shame indeed.

grow up and stop embaressing yourself and the celtic support with these petty immature threads about journalists who show the slightest sign of perceived pro hun bias. if you think the evening times are pro hun then do yourself a favour and don't buy the rag. but do not waste your time writing petty vindictive e-mails to someone who you know neither personally or professionally and expect us all to uniformally fall in line with you childishness. there are far more important things in life than third rate journalists and their perceived bias, surely this week has taught us that much at least.
i hope this post is taken in the spirit it was written but i fear the overwhelming response will be to resort to tired old insults. i hope i'm wrong

Hail Hailboth sides of the divide want to get one up on the other side, this week the ran-gers fans have given celtic ammunition to last them for years.no one is asking YOU PERSONALLY to fall in to line maybe that is what YOU personally think. the thread is about a convicted murderer on the the front page on a national scottish tabloid bleating about how he was ill treated by the police.if ran-gers knew this was the type of fan supporting them down there they would have stopped him getting there. ease up relax and think before you start moaning about what the thread writer has written as maybe the truth hurts.

Ohh the irony

You do like to tell others if they dont like it to not read or buy it, yet you forget that wee statement pertains also to yourself.

Click the wee red X in top right hand corner should you dislike it, simple really.

Hail Hail.

Do yourself a favour and take your own advice.

If you don't like what I've written etc. etc.......

As for 'Tired old insults'....talk about pot and kettle!

P.S. Childish or not, I know how to spell the word embarrassing.

Your spelling of it is...erm!...embarrassing!

that is very, very weak. do you not think that perhaps in amongst the 80,000 who travelled to seville there may have one or two with a rather shady past?
my point, which you obviously missed, was that threads like this one are petty, immature , lack class and reflect badly on us all. the behaviour of a section of the Scotland's Shame fans is there for all to see, it doesn't need some over zealous celtic fan with time on his hands to point this out. those who do go to these extremes merely just end up looking rather pathetic themselves aswell as taking the attention away from that which they seek to highlight.


paul, it would perhaps have been ironic if my post had been petty, immature or vindictive. however being a light fingered toss monkey i wouldn't expect you to pick up on such subtleties. (irony intended)

well done you!! make sure you hold on to that now, it may be a while before your fragile ego's next propping up. but i was right with the petty and vindictive wasn't i ?

oh and, i fail to see the "pot/kettle" analogy. perhaps you would be so good as to point it out for me, if you're not too busy reading dostoevsky or watching mastermind?

bye now, Von Goethe

Resorting to name-calling always gets your point across, irony at it's finest again.

"Resorting to name-calling always gets your point across"? not at all ironic is it ,paul?

why thank you, you're too kind.

why thank you, you're too kind.too much time on your hands you say on an earlier post?. who has you?you seem to be trying to protect the hun element at ibrox with YOUR weak arguement, 80.000 in seville? gangsters or not they behaved themselves, they came back with great memories and the fair play award, RAN-GERS!.. they came back with bite marks on their legs lumps on their heads and bad bad memories on what should have been a great day for them all so before you start talking about the celtic support get your own house in order.....http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif (http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif)http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif (http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif)http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif (http://i27.tinypic.com/wbx8k3.gif)

(irony intended)what you seem to be missing here is that celtic have fans from all corners of the earth and through threads like this it lets our army of fans know what the scottish media are saying about our team.
