guinness Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 Article in the Herald today by Chris Jack senior football writer about his love of Rangers and how delighted he was to introduce his step daughter to the great atmosphere at Ibrox. What chance of impartial reporting is there when the main reporter talks of his love of Rangers? At least he is honest. Think it might be a while before I read anymore of his columns.

ianmac Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Herald Sport - you can usually skip the first five pages and often the last page, unless you are interested in THEM. Mind you it does keep a lot of ex-Rangers and Celtic players in pin money. Edited July 28, 2022 by ianmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rascal Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 I don’t mind which team any reporter follows and prefer when they are open about it. The sports editor will be the one deciding what space to give to the various clubs/stories. One thing I like now about the Daily Record is their regional coverage. Still OF bias but it’s less obvious, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTOF Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 The herald's coverage of our games has been superficial at best, over the past couple of years. Mostly the old scum and rugby union. Used to get the Sunday Herald delivered, but stopped buying it a couple of months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have dropped the 'Glasgow' from their name and purport to be a Scottish national newspaper, albeit with a west central bias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 I'm surprised people still buy newspapers, not purchased one for well over 25 years. Probably that helps me to stop dreaming about Rangers and Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the number puzzles (keeps a pensioner's brain in trim, I hope) and skim the rest of the newspaper. Print newspapers are definitely not value for money any more if you have a decent internet connection.

As you say, not even close to value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Daily Record for a not well neighbour the other day and couldn’t believe it cost £1 😳 The HSS household buy the Mail + Herald on a Sun and they last us all week I must admit that when I visit my Mother the 1st thing I do is browse her Paisley Express Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antrin Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 I love the myriad ways that grieving people reject and argue against simple, blunt truth. I am sure that my comments help. My pleasure. Don’t mention it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 I know they died. You know they died. They know they died in 2012. They are now officially Zombies. Get used to it. The SPFL and SFA never removed titles so the same club myth lingers on. Be thankful you don’t live up here and have to put up with the sectarian divide.

Nobody is grieving and you're the only one who want's to argue about historic facts. Everybody knows, regurgitating at every opportunity is unhealthy and tedious, a bit like you.
