Tyler Durden Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Haven't the BBC done the right thing in re editing the podcast without the offensive comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Has there been any sort of apology yet? If there’s not by now, it’s pretty poor form. And any shred of sympathy for Ramage & RD are fading away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s the way they’ve done it, that’s the problem. With no acknowledgement of the issue and why it’s been done. It’s like they’ve done it on the sly and hoped no one noticed.

Probably, but it's an at best misguided act to then reupload it without acknowledging that they had edited it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't have been posted in the first place, but once the error was realised they should have simply removed it. What they have done, with total lack of comment, is make it look like they are covering it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMac5 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Michael Johnson isn't without 'sin' where using words 'incorrectly' is concerned. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/25646051 "Michael Johnson has stepped down from the Football Association's Inclusion Advisory Board following criticism over comments he made in 2012 describing homosexuality as "detestable". There's lots of stone-throwing going on without a hearing first it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazloW Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 This all just confirms, if such confirmation is needed, that Ramage is an unprofessional prat. I make no apologies for the fact that if this means he will no longer be gracing the airwaves of Derby then I shall not be losing a wink of sleep.

Tyler Durden Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I was playing Devils Advocate I guess. The BBC would get slagged if they didn't have removed the offensive sections of the podcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G STAR RAM Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 37 minutes ago, Srg said: It’s more the fact they did a stealth edit and have said literally nothing. Comes across as a cover up. To be fair it's a Sunday and I would imagine they will probably take legal advice before commenting. A bit like the EFL charge story, maybe its worth waiting a day or two to hear the official stance rather than being judge and jury! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cited religion for his own views, perhaps he remembers something about 'lest he who is without sin'? Entitled to his opinion but perhaps he can remember what saying something inadvisable leads to and not be so quick to add fuel to the fire. Not like Max needs any further words, said everything he needed to with a touch of class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasnt blaming things on our young players of colour. I hope Michael Johnson issues an apology for making things up and fanning the flames....

Maybe he could have caveated his criticism by pointing out that he has made ill thought out comments and hoping that Ramage is given the chance to apologise and get on with his career?

No, well it wasnt until he jumped on the bandwagon. If he feels it fine to analyse peoples comments then sure it is fair for people to analyse his. What Max Lowe wrote was all that needed saying.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 The problem with pundits who "say it like it is" is that their version of what "it" is typically went out of date about 25 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
