Dirty Gordon Waddell goes on the Mail on Sunday

[Danielsdad]

Closest I get to a newspaper is my youngest is a paperboy

 

[biggee]

Gordon Waddell, that well known anti Rangers, left wing, independence supporting sports writer has just joined the Conservative supporting Scottish Mail on Sunday. Waddell, who absolutely loathes Rangers, had finally been given the boot at the ailing Sunday Mail and looked all washed up in a shrinking market where every reader is a prisoner.

But Scottish Daily Mail and Scottish Mail on Sunday editor in chief, Andy Harries, axed his long time and highly respected chief football writer, Fraser Mackie, a former Rangers News reporter, to make way for loud- mouth, know-all, Waddell.

Is it any coincidence that Harries was one of Waddell’s brother, Bruce’s close confidants when Bruce was editor of the Daily Record?

So that’s the Mail on Sunday added to the Sunday Mail on the list of papers Rangers supporters should avoid.

Strange for a unionist tabloid to have a clownshoe as editor, surely the owners would be concerned if appointments like this cost them readers ?

 

[alex wright]

Fraser Mackie to Gordon Waddell, dearie me. The print media really are on a race to the bottom.

 

[SimonLeBon]

Harries never even had the decency to sack people face to face or even over the phone, he done it by e_mail and now he has this Rangers hating arse wipe on the payroll, its time all Gers fans and those opposed to the hate filled Nationalists in our midsts stopped buying this rag.

Time to let the bigwigs in London know what Harries is up to, surrounding himself with hatefilled Nationalists. He has lost thousands of Rangers fans by appointing that arsewipe.

 

[coldbear]

Why even have a thread about this?

Someone I've never heard of has moved to a thing I don't read.

 

[nybear]

They already have a couple of dubious hacks, McGowane and someone else whos name escapes me.

Make no mistake, the Daily Mail/ Mail on Sunday may be Tory papers but their main fitba writers to a man are ***s, and were chief amongst those putting the boot into us in 2012 and since, and also guilty of attempting to drag us into the celtc paedophile ring scandal.

How many people buy a regular newspaper in modern Britain?

I don't know any, just some that want something to read occasionally on the bus to work.

 

[barneybear]

Soon there won’t be any newspapers. These so called journalists go from one paper to another but the reality is they are irrelevant and will soon be consigned to history

However, they will just jump to SM platforms instead!
We really need to get OUR guys in there.
We offered equality to the newcomers and they want destroy us for being nice to them

McGowan and Greechan are the reason I stopped reading that paper.

McGowan is one bitter tim

Different Gordon, already confirmed by the Romanian journo (and the thread on here)

What's a newspaper ?

Yesterdays news.

 

[Kilsyth Unionist]

People don't buy newspapers. Do they?

Watching the BBC and buying newspapers, the norm years ago but not now.

 

[Hammerinho]

Reading between the lines I assume this is about a journalist? Print journalist?

Folk still buy papers?

 

[blue genes]

How could anyone who has read any of that clown’s infantile articles believe that they merited a move to a more upmarket (relatively speaking) paper?!?

 

[SimonLeBon]

Its tragic how these so called journalists go all coy, when it comes to highlighting the sexual abuse of all these young Bhoys over 4 decades. Add the Scottish Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday to the banned list. Dont buy them Bears and dont read online.

Dundee University recently had an on line induction video. As rector, Jim Spence said a wee bit.

He was talking about a sports journalist he knew, who had been made redundant, was in his 40's, and was just about to start uni.

I immediately thought of Waddell.

Probably Ewan McLean who was the golf writer at the Record.

not looked at a paper in years, remember one of them was an editor at some point, hence in my mind the mail was the other view when the green tinted specs were worn during typing.

Waddell is my age, early 50s. Same year at Falkirk High School. He was a prick back then too.

John Greechan. He ghosted di Canio’s “autobiography.”

Same here Bro.

 

[Sam English]

Couldn't tell you the last time I bought a Sunday or daily paper.

A thing of the past now.

 

[CooperOnTheWing]

The Daily Mail is a great read in the front section but sadly for some time the sport section has been infested with anti Rangers hating morons. Very poor from the Dailt Mail.

The Daily Mail is a fascist rag.

 

[Balogun1]

Congratulations Gordon on your move from a rotten paper I would never buy...








to another rotten paper I would never buy.

 

[coldbear]

The Daily Mail is a fascist rag.

I can't really say I've read it much over the past few years, but I'm pretty sure there would be a bit of an outcry if there was a fascist daily newspaper being printed in the UK.

 

[Krissie]

What's a newspaper ?

Printed sheets of paper containing a mix of yesterdays news and speculative sensationalist bollocks. A motoring equivalent would be a donkey.

 

[Wugs]

I can't remember the last time i bought a paper so it makes no difference to me.
