‘A who’s who of Rangers tax cheats’ ‘Livingston was robbed’ ‘As anti Celtic a show as you’re ever likely to have’ Sportscene under attack
It seems that Sportscene has given up any attempt to appear impartial.
With Steven Thompson appearing to be as comfortable as David Tanner in front of the auto-cue the show effectively starts a man down. What Thompson’s qualifications are no-one really knows.
Teaming Thommo up with Kenny Miller and Richard Forster all that is missing is the red, white and blue bunting as they attempt to cover the weekend action in the SPFL Premiership.
Miller appears to be desperately chasing a career in the media with regular slots on Sky Sports, Radio Clyde and BBC Scotland around his shifts in the Falkirk dug-out.
Forster still plays for Partick Thistle but it seems that his choice of club was governed by the nearness to the BBC studios at Pacific Quay.
With highly selective editing the BBC team can control the narrative from the weekend matches. Celtic fans know the script but if Ange can keep his side winning over the last eight matches there will be more misery for the producers and presenters to serve up.
? It’s time for Sportscene! ?
We’ve got plenty of action to show you from today’s tie between Livingston and Celtic, with a look back at Saturday’s games!
Join Steven Thompson, Kenny Miller and Richard Foster on @BBCScotland & @BBCiPlayer now! ?

I’ll tell you what it’ll boil down to:
“Livingston was robbed with the decisions”
“Celtic were lucky”
“Martindale will be catching the eye of bigger clubs”

A who’s who of Rangers tax cheats. Clearly BBC Scotland hasn’t forgotten it’s no Catholics policy of Queen Margaret Drive. @RetroCeltic @BBCNews @BBCNews @BBCSportsound

Just watched sportscene and would have to say this must be the worst commentary team ever, hard to make sense of anything they said. Perhaps BBC should be looking at who they get to present Sportscene in the future or maybe just not watch !!!!!!!

A most appropriate panel for the staunch British Broadcasting Corporation. I would like to shake every panel members hand in a special way. The true ranger, whether as referee or pundit, can give an unbiased opinion and has no desire to indulge dishonesty.

As anti Celtic a show as you’re ever likely to have the misfortune of coming across.
