Never let it be said again that the Beeb is a pro-Celtic organisation…
It’s been hilariously suggested on several occasions that the Beeb is a pro-Celtic institution (no laughter at the back please), that’s of course according to supporters of theRangers.
🟥 Red card
Rangers’ task has just become much more difficult.
Brazilian Jefte is given a second yellow card and Rangers are down to 10 men against Dynamo Kyiv.

Self-confessed blue-nose Kenny McIntyre
That’s despite the likes of Stephen Thompson, Kenny Miller, Neil McCann, Derek Ferguson Alan Hutton, and recently Allan McGregor regularly appearing on screen and on air, not to mention the likes of permanent fixtures closet fan Chic Young and self-confessed blue-nose Kenny McIntyre who’s club allegiances need no explaining.
Dynamo Kyiv take the lead against Rangers.
Substitute Oleksandr Pikhalyonok dips in off the right and hits one into the bottom-left corner.

On Tuesday night it should have been named BBC Ibrox such was the line up of ex Ibrox players. Yes, I appreciate that it was theRangers who were playing, but no other side gets that much preferential treatment when it comes to ex pros commenting on their former clubs.
All that was missing was Tom commentator (wit was the goalie daein’ at that first goal?)
All that was missing was Tom commentator, Ally McCoist and Kris Boyd to make it a full house. It all worked out well in the end up however as after all the cheerleading and cry’s of hysteria it was all doom and gloom as we got to witness the tears and tantrums of the three Bears on the mics.
Derek Ferguson and Kenny McIntyre on the airwaves were accusing the referee of being a cheat! It’s just a shame they can’t call out that sort of ‘cheating’ when it comes to our own referees on the domestic scene.
Another substitute delivers another hammer blow, and Rangers Champions League hopes look over.
It comes down Rangers’ right as a ball pulled back is finished by Nazar Voloshyn, and it’s 2-0 to Dynamo Kyiv at Hampden.#BBCFootball pic.twitter.com/b8Lz5Q2Wuv

Wonderful viewing and listening
While on the television we had Allan McGregor almost self combust live on air due to his disgust at seeing his old side crash out European footballs most prestigious competition. Wonderful viewing and listening, but never again let it be said that the Beeb is a pro-Celtic organisation.
Gathering co-efficient points in Europa League
What’s next for theRangers after going out of the Champions League? They drop into the group stages of the Europa League where the money is nowhere near what Celtic will make in the Champions League. They do have the chance to build up Scotland’s co-efficient in the second their UEFA competition, which will be handy going forward, especially for the Champions.
Just an Ordinary Bhoy
commentator says, “ … he brushes his face, (pause) terrible decision”, aye, he “brushes” his face with his elbow and forearm, honestly they should listen to themselves.
