The idiocy is that the PCC does not regulate internet blogs so any complaints there would be completely ignored.
when i have aquiet moment at work i enjoy a wee lurk on the rangers media forum, especially after a result like last night. Saw this thread on the very same leggo blog. http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=236762
****ing hell <demented> From the first page alone Hurting Like **** Has anyone bought a Daily Record today? Is the back page just blank with tearstains on it?
More schoolyard telltale nonsense from the "never offended" With enemies like this ****nugget, we don't need friends <tooeasy> EDIT: Only the bits in brackets are my comments - the bold bit about having an Irish name was logically arrived at by the "journalist".
"Many press pals who are £300-a-year members of the National Union of Journalists expressed both their surprise and their disgust." yes - at he state of your stained breeks
And he is a man who has a bitter, bilious, twisted and vicious hatred of Rangers supporters. Even those who are members of the National Union of Journalists, of which he is President. How do we know Donnacha DeLong thinks like Philmacgiollabhain? (Because he’s Irish?) Because he feels no shame about his views and has expressed them fully, clearly and with no ambiguity on his Twitter account. An account which is headed by a picture of Donnacha DeLong posing beside an NUJ banner. (Like a Nazi no doubt?)
It's good to see Leggo is a man who holds no grudges, delusional or otherwise, since he 'resigned' from the NUJ.
Leggo banged on about Speirs for long enough and that boy has gone from strength to strength; the Herald, Scotsman, a golf show on BBC Radio Scotland as well as his usual appearances on radio phone-ins. If Leggo carries on like this, Phil's going to end up as the President of the USA.
Can you imagine going up to your trade union representative at work and asking him/her to look into this matter? Sadly, there are some people out there who probably will.
That Rangers Media thread is pretty sickening stuff. Leggo's ******ed rants are one thing, but disgusting comments about people's children, death threats and nationality are just inexcusable. I'm not trying to be biased but i rarely, if ever, read things like that - hate-filled, threatening, murderous remarks - posted by Celtic fans. I rarely read about IRA support or long-winded diatribes about 'history'. Maybe i don't lookin the right places but the superiority complex most Rangers fans possess seems to completely blind their logic when it comes to an even-handed approach. Pretty much all the time, anything hate-filled, nasty and vicious, is written by a supposed 'fan' of TRFC. Sadly, if anything, the guilt of doing **** all as their club died, seems to have brought out an even bigger and more vitriolic innate hatred some of them had managed to hide for a while. So ****ing thick, the irony of writing this in one of their comments was completely lost:
To be fair, the subhumans who populate RangersMedia needed no excuse to hate Celtic/Kafflicks/The Irish, it seems the fiasco at Rangers has made them bolder and more confident in spouting their disgusting bigotry and prejudice, knowing that by and large it will be supported by some other brain donor. It would be easy to write it off as bluster but what kind of person's mind works in the way these creatures' seem to? Is that all they worry about in their sad pathetic lives, the fate of a ****ing football club and the evils of Catholicism?
there is one guy on the thread 77samuari or something who says that they are out of order. guess what he is immediately shot down as a taig or a fenian sympathiser. they are ****ing morons
By chance I seem to have stumbled across Leggo’s “Press pals”, the same ones who are fighting his corner and backing up his paranoid ravings. I think it’s pretty obvious that these articles are no mere coincidence and that Leggo’s Press pals (if that is how you would describe someone who has a Blog) are circling the wagons in an attempt to do something. What that “something” is, apart from getting people who are not members of the NUJ to write and complain, is not as yet clear, but I’m pretty sure all will be revealed in the coming weeks. This appears to be the opening Salvo in the campaign: Alex Thompson and The NUJ – Corrupt and Irresponsible Bullies Posted on August 14, 2012 “What is more important is a campaign to silence a journalist who exposes the lies and agenda of liars like Thompson, and uncovers their agenda.” Yes, he’s talking about Leggo, in the same style as Leggo http://williampoole.wordpress.com/2...on-the-nuj-corrupt-and-irresponsible-bullies/ Then we had Leggo shouting his mouth off about Alex Thompson and Phil McGillivan, the next thing you know Chris Graham and Bill McMurdo were throwing in their tuppenceworth, using very similar language to that of Bill Poole and Leggo.
So is violence never acceptable? I posted in another place, that McGillivan wants to turn Glasgow into Belfast thirty years ago. I truly believe he has that much bitterness and hatred in his heart. So, we are dealing with a man who would quite happily see Protestant Rangers supporters blown to pieces. As in, body parts scattered all over the place - and no amount of handwringing appeasement will change his view, it never does with zealots. I personally, yearn for the news that he has been dealt with, in the most violent manner possible. **** him and his. ****ing hell.
