There are signs tonight of tension in the so-called peace deal struck between BBC Scotland and the club from Ibrox.
After a comical stand off that had gone off for seven years the state broadcaster recently announced that it recognised past mistakes, apologised to the club and were now back in the media tent for access to management and staff.
On Friday Kenny Macintyre asked the softest of questions about squad comparisons after being invited into a Zoom call with Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
At Livingston all seemed well with pre-match and post-match interviews with the Dutchman but it seems that the overall coverage wasn’t fawning enough.
To ban the BBC once may be regarded as a misfortune; to ban them twice looks like carelessness.

Highlighting and discussing marginal decisions are all part and parcel of football coverage in 2022 but it seems that some sensitive souls inside Ibrox are looking to boot the BBC back out the tent on the flimsiest of evidence.
Like canabilism, or something!
Got their dosh, don’t need the BBC anymore.
