Foolish Tom English returns to Twitter to tackle claims from Rangers Tax Case

After a weekend battering on Twitter, Tom English decided to fight back late on Sunday evening.

In the absence of any genuine contacts outside of Gorgie Road the chief Sports Writer at BBC Scotland spends most of his time of social media, generally looking for extremist comments to build his chin stroking opinion pieces around.

Rangers Tax Case produced some brilliant analysis of English and his career, rather than answer the core points the egg-chaser decided to pick up on a few minor inaccuracies.

English did start his journalistic career writing about Scottish football but soon landed his dream job writing about rugger for the Irish Times.

The name Pat Whelan and the Brazen Head pub in Limerick seems to have resulted in a career change, English returned to Scotland just as circulation of Scotland on Sunday was falling off a cliff.

Sensing the changing tides English worked his way onto Radio Scotland, an Irish voice hostile to all things Celtic was warmly welcomed and finally rewarded with the title of Chief Sports Writer

Following the BBC template that employs Kenny Macintyre, Steven Thompson, Jane Lewis, Richard Foster, Kenny Miller, Neil McCann and Alasdair Lamont, English is part of the furniture with the state broadcaster, affectionately known as House Paddy inside Pacific Quay.

As his Shane Warne incident last year proved his hostility to anything Celtic related is overwhelming. Most Internet Bampots would take the word of RTC ahead of English who seems completely incapable of letting things go.

No matter how much he backtracks on his attacks on Brendan Rodgers there is a lengthy podcast from On The Ball in Ireland where English puts the boot in with his combination of sarcasm and contempt- spoken into his BBC Scotland microphone.
