sorry, think the pun about his legs is a bit low, not funny. Have we now stooped as low as hun fans themselves. Maybe I´m just being a bit over sensitive?

I thought it was really good apart from that line. It could lose that bit and still be just as good a cartoon.

I just appreciated the irony that it's David Murray who has left Rangers without a leg to stand on.

On reflection, I have to agree.

I expect somebody wil be along any time now with "PC gone mad" or "you should stick to cricket" or other Pash but it would have been funny without the need to bring his disability into it.

all I will say is real equality should mean disability is simply a fact same as being bald, fat or maybe even ginger:greengrin and if it's not the target ( it was clearly not intended to make fun of his lack of legs) then arguably it's acceptable in cartoon humour which can and should go beyond prim and proper. ..and it is relevant to the old style penalty of being 'hung, drawn and quartered' which obviously was not an option hence second best of chop chop and the swipe at the perceived upstanding citizen that he was always painted as...

Agree with all of that (except the ginger bit :greengrin)

It is a bit 'below the belt'.

It is most likely aimed at G4S who famously put an electronic tag on a paroled offended's false leg.

The man lost his legs in a car crash. I don't think you would have made a pun on that would you. Queen - "This is a complete car crash", Murray - "Tell me about it".

Or have I just set you up for the sequel? :greengrin
