BBC again

[regnar]

On teletext just now reporting that Julien tested positive, but it is not known if he was on the trip to Dubai.
More sweeping, we all saw him returning with the rest of them at the airport on their TV newscast. As Jimmy Sanderson would have said Mendacity of the highest order.

 

[vinnie]

And if there was a chance that he wasn’t on the trip, the tims would have said so and not admitted to 16 isolating.

 

[Kilsyth Unionist]

A bunch of amateurs.

Obviously your talking about the bbc and the mentally challengeds collectively

Yes.

 

[Wee Dick's Hairnet]

Teletext? I’m guessing you are of a certain vintage Regnar?

 

[Gib1958]

And some people pay a license fee to these clowns

 

[Captain_Buns]

I didn’t even know teletext still existed

 

[Baba Booey]

BBC, you say?

I see your "Teletext" and raise you a "Ceefax"!

 

[Carson's Cat]

Send them a stern fax of complaint, OP.

 

[Soldier1981]

Send them a stern fax of complaint, OP.

Or a strongly worded telegram.

 

[JorgAlbertz]

I'd be straight into the post office to send my letter to Points of View if I were you.

 

[Jase]

Teletext? Isn’t that from the days when TV ran on steam?

 

[Smkz23]

Is Teletext still going?? The youth of today don’t know what they’re missing not being able to sit watching the scores update.

I was thinking the same did you play bamboozled after

Watching the game live doesn’t compare.

 

[QuayStExile]

I'm in Ohio so we depend on Wells Fargo and the Pony Express for prompt delivery

 

[CinnamonSwally]

Asquith! Fetch for my quill and ready my sternest pigeon!

 

[Coopers left foot.]

A blanket and fire is all I require.

 

[remembertheepoch]

Considering there is pictures of him in crutches at Glasgow airport and in a wheelchair at Dubai airport unless of course 30 quids worth of deep fake software has been used

 

[Baxter Blue]

Never knew FF was sarcastic.

 

[big_hec]

Light the beacons of Gondor - tell the world!

 

[Conlig Loyal]

Watching the game live doesn’t compare.

You can get a similar, more modern experience watching the updates on the Sky Sports scores and results page online. No need to hanker for the old 'Irish internet'.

 

[Wee Dick's Hairnet]

I‘m struggling to imagine what device the OP uses to access FF....


Also what was the auld bugger doing being up at 4.25am? Up for his third pish of the night?

Clearly using his Sega Megadrive.

Don’t forget my wife, “Oracle”.

 

[Dio]

I miss Bamboozle!

 

[Wee Dick's Hairnet]

No response from Regnar.

His vaccine shot has probably knocked the auld bugger for 6.

Penalty shootouts on teletext.

Cheers OP, my carrier pigeon hasn’t arrived yet

Ahhhh.... but maybe the BBC just assumed he was there to welcome home his teammates after getting so lonely without them.

 

[Modfella]

Is Teletext still a thing?

 

[johnny1872]

Teletext had no idea that was still a thing.........

BBC are at it as they know he was with their squad.

 

[regnar]

Never knew FF was sarcastic.

I am deeply offended by the replies to my post. Sarcasm, Ageism, assumption of of being male. Never heard of Bamboozled, and it's none of your business what I was doing at 4.25am. However I have had a great laugh at the replies. Thank you all.

PS. My device is operated by a treadle.

Ignorance, absurd and bigots.

Thank god for Tim Berners Lee.

Edge of the seat stuff, refresh, refresh, refresh......

 

[TNT]

Per squeaky Liam, they now have "a double header against THE in-form side in the top flight".

We playing them again???????

Just heard it on the podcast.

 

[lanarkshire_bear]

I missed this because I didn't have 10-bob to put in the meter on the back of the telly.

That's because Blackadder ate it

Demotion for someone:
"To say Celtic have had better weeks is putting it mildly. So much so, they probably long for the halcyon days of getting scudded by Barcelona or Paris St-Germain in the Champions League for some light relief.

The 1-1 draw with Hibernian on Monday was a sobering sight for a group of supporters hardly drunk on success in 2021. With 13 players - as well as Neil Lennon - nowhere near Celtic Park, a makeshift XI laboured to a point. In truth, it easily could have been much worse for them."

I read the refresh part of your post like the guy that crashed the stolen car”reverse,reverse,reverse reverse.....reverse reverse!)

[bemersydebear]

Watched a game against them in Benidorm 30 years ago on teletext in a pub. The place was heaving and everyone was a nervous wreck watching a screen with the 2 teams names on waiting for something to happen. Things improved when you could phone in for commentary of the games a few years later.

 

[Marstonbear]

The 1990 Scottish Cup Final penalty shoot out was magnificent entertainment on Ceefax

 

[Vallance]

Of course he wasn't in Dubai, he waited at the Airport for days for them all to return.

 

[BlueHaze]

He was on the trip,An injured player going on an essential training trip abroad during a pandemic.

This and Operation Tango still strong in the memory but delights our younger brethren will not be able to indulge in.
