Attention-seeking bloggers held to rather lower standards than the MSM, I would submit.

Phil was confidently predicting Armageddon 2 all last season. Didnae happen, did it?

Our Phil earns a coin from his blog. I guess he has to keep talking armegeddon until the subscriptions dry up.

That will be the high standards maintained by the Daily Record et al? Give me Phil any day of the week. And as far as I recall he did not claim that they were about to shut down other than if they failed to secure external finance - and they have done exactly that, that's beyond dispute. Dave King said it himself.....

Not sure what you mean? Dave King stated at the recent meeting that they would continue to overspend and require additional external finance? Well covered by the press at the time......

Not disputing there may be a plan of some sort afoot but it's hard to see what it is at this point. Its pretty clear that the GASL doesn't have any money, at least none that he is prepared to donate to Sevco.....

I'm with you, was being sarcastic, the untold wealth never has appeared and ain't gonna. He's hoping at best to claw back previous losses.

Oh ok that was a woosh moment for me then. I thought maybe a brick from one of those old buildings in Boston had come down and hit you on the head at some point

So he has an agenda - who cares? Personally I enjoy reading Phil's blogs. Like everyone else he gets some stuff correct and some wrong but he is a damn sight more insightful than the morons who represent our national newspapers.

This!

The other advantage he has over the newspapers is that he can write a sentence that doesn't corrode your IQ.

Agreed, i never miss an article and i enjoy John James too, his recent slandering of Richard Gough was very brave

Which bit was slander?

This has to be a joke. His written style is appalling and repetitive.

The one sentence paragraphs.

The unending use of 'apropos', 'for the avoidance of doubt', 'chapeau', etc.

I do like (some of) his content, but a writer he is not. He needs a sub-editor as well, badly.

***cabbageandribs1875*** · 14-12-2016 10:43 PM

Mmmm 1190 pages

hopefully the cream buns are dead and buried by page 1690

only 500 pages to go

I disagree and the popularity of his blog would suggest otherwise too. It's not the way I would write, but it's his style and he has many people reading his blogs including people like you who don't like his writing style. The content it would seem outweighs any other negative factors.......

***Keith_M*** · 15-12-2016 08:44 AM

T'Rangers are about to announce a massive sponsorship deal from a company very well known in Germany but not so much in the UK.

They are, in so many ways, a perfect fit...

His Blog has a lot of views because of the size of his intended audience, Celtc Fans.

His writing style suggests a guy so far up his own anus that he views the world from behind his teeth.

To be fair to him, though, he hasn't written any articles claiming that DerHun were about to receive a massive bill because they were stealing water from the church next door...

That is some squad they have lined up although I suspect there might still be leaks in their defence

Aye maybe so, but 99% of the time they will be keeping clean sheets.

They'd be delighted to be associated with a product unlikely to be used by many practicing catholics.

I don't disagree regarding his popularity, I'm just saying he's an appalling writer - style, grammar, tenor, spelling, syntax, repetition, etc. All need attention.

[QUOTE=magpie1892;4879367]Which bit was slander?

The bits about sneaking out of The Scotland training camp to pick up under age rent boys and then having a marriage of convenience arranged to deflect from his rampant desire for penetrating young boys whilst on Scotland international duty. I was shocked that he came right out and said it, we've all heard the rumours but no one in the mainstream media has even touched upon it, let alone put themselves up there to be shot down if the accusations aren't true. It was brave and possibly slanderous, depends if its true or not. As he has now recieved a cease and desist letter from Goughs lawyer it is clear he has rattled a few cages and Goughs next move will be very instructive. Sue to save his reputation? The alternative is silence and that may just prove to those following this story that Johnjames has revealed a truth.

It was stated after the article that the lawyers letter from Thomsons (?) was a hoax and they had written no such thing......

Interesting, the plot thickens, so it could be argued that Gough doesnt know whats been written about him? I find that hard to believe so his silence on the outing of the story remains a blot on his character. Not good from a sevco point of view given he is a club ambassador and paedophilia is to the forefront in many peoples minds at the moment.

Did the blog mention young boys, or young men?

Just saw that, thanks.

He also says that soliciting sexual services is a crime. It isn't. However, that's probably not the main issue here.

Really? So anyone in the UK can approach a hooker and negotiate a fee and that's not illegal?
