From afc-chat 2007 (he is a sheep of the worst kind):
Richard Gordon couldn't help himself. (merged)
BBC Radio Scotland did their usual transfer deadline show, 'Through the Window' last night, 10.30pm to just after midnight. Hosted by Richard Gordon, he was assisted by a host of journos including Chico, the Sunday Mail's Gordon Waddell, Jim Spence, Brian McLaughlin, and former player, Alan Preston. There wasn't a lot going on, so Richard Gordon turns to e-mails as filler.
Richard firmly established his position a few years past in a biog piece, "I was raised to absolutely hate Rangers", and he is occasionally anxious to parade his conditioning. Last night, he hesitated over reading a received e-mail, said, "we will maybe read it out after midnight, children should be in bed by then". Intrigued? A bawdy Rabbie Burns-esque epistle perhaps?
After midnight he reads said e-mail, "Edinburgh Zoo have accepted the transfer of Filip Sebo, he will be displayed as an exhibit". Much laughter ensues among assembled journos, to this background, Richard muses, "Maybe I shouldn't have read that out".
