Lee Ann Crichton has strengthened the links between Ibrox and BBC Scotland by taking over from Jo Potter as the manager of the Ibrox Ladies squad.
For years, in a clear box ticking exercise Crichton has shared her expert opinions with the state broadcasters on radio and television.
She fitted in perfectly alongside the likes of Steven Thompson and James McFadden with dull and predictable opinions and never strayed off message.

Crichton will be keen to retain contact with BBC Scotland for the inevitable return to broadcasting, just like Billy Dodds and Neil McCann.
Both of them suddenly dropped their BBC commitments in February to assist Barry Ferguson, a few months later they are back on the rotas.
Elsewhere the BBC has Cammy Bell, Richard Fosterm Steven Naismith and others to talk things up at Ibrox and amuse Kenny Macintyre with dressing room tales from the glory days.

What a dog.
Don’t pay my tv licence not subsidising these tax dodging hun bastards.
Top man Bryan !
She will be taking over the men’s team shortly as Russell Martin is beginning to get found out as a head coach …even after this short time period ?
The Celtic board, (I know, I know) should contact the BBC Governing Board and asked to investigate the unhealthy connection between Sevco/Rangers( Liquidated) and the BBC in Scotland.
Inclusivity my “bottom”.
Could we start a petition? What an embarrassment that would be.
She must be an out n’ out Hun Bitchett to be employed at BBC Scotland !
