    "And Ciaran MacAirt also told us that he also unfurled a banner...A march"

    I've been on loads of marches and even unfurled the odd banner. Does that mean I'm a wanted man? :bandit:

    Cannae beat an utterly superfluous 'also'.

    An ex-journalist you say?

    The guy who runs the publishers (Bob Smith Walker - just as well he doesn't have a "Timmy" name, eh?) has tweeted about this blog.

    The website isn't blocked - or else you wouldn't be able to visit it (it is a ****e website by the way) and the books advertised on the front page do include the ones Leggo mentions but the guy just mentioned that the other books they publish include authors like former army members, SAS soldiers, a former loyalist paramilitary, senior journalists and "others".

    It is absolutely mental that publishers are forced to explain basic nonsense like this.

    I fear for the mass sanity of Leggat, McMurdo and Graham - I really, really, really do.

    Actually, the blurb on the website's front page should tell you all you need to know.

    I once read "Los Chicos De Guerre", it was a personal account of young Argentinian conscripts during the Falklands war.


    Maybe i'm a traitor?

    I love his rabid linking of anything and everything that could possibly be attubuted to Celtic in some way.

    He UNFURLED A BANNER!? His book is a MUST READ!

    Just imagine the collective sigh of "for ****'s sake" when someone called the office and said "Aye, yeah it's happened: Leggo's writing about you".

    Before having to read his pish then draft some sort of response to give out so they won't have the morons frothing at the mouth, chest beating and threatening to boycott any Frontline Noir colouring-in books.

    Best blog ever

    I know a journalist who was at the DR who had volumes of these types of books in his home...from both sides...is he a double agent?

    I can't wait for tomorrow's expose of DC Thompson and how Korky The Cat is a vile sectarian caricature of all Protestants.

    What next, death threats to those who work at this publishers!

    Somebody should sue this **** - what he's writing is dangerous ... for want of a better word, propoganda!

    He's building something out of nothing that can only, at best, wind up some yahoo! All ittakes is some ****in muppet to get so het up that he actually 'takes action' against 'the enemies' of Rangers!

    I thought journalists were meant to be succinct.

    I could get his message across a lot quicker.

    To be honest, not even sure if it was worth posting today.

    Nothing too mental other than faux shock from the drunkard that Rangers fans got compared to some baddies from Space on a kid's tv show, and further using his blog as a vehicle to tar more successful, more intelligent and more worthwhile journalists.

    Timmy Thomson declared Strathclyde Five Oh to be corrupt......

    No. He did not.

    This is a lie.

    Leggo is a prancing, posturing poltroon of a poseur........and a ****.

    In talking about Leggo/Phil the other day Mick made the point that if journalists publish the truth it speaks for itself. I said that the truth can be presented with a slant.

    "journalists" who dispense with facts become commentators. Leggo has been a commentator for a long time now. Like that "Timmy is obsessed" thread, where the author just made **** up it destroys any credibility at all.

    Timmy Thomson probably can't be bothered to call Leggo on this but it is absolute bollocks. A ******ed approximation of what Thomson actually said.
