OPINION

Since Rangers’ youngsters won the Scottish Youth Cup final against Celtic on Thursday night, BBC Sportsound’s official Twitter account has posted two tweets about the match at Hampden Park – and both are about an incident involving Kai Kennedy. Even though the match was aired live on BBC Scotland, Sportsound have not seen any need to even tweet out the full-time result or any post-match reaction other than to show a clip of Kennedy’s bid to waste time towards the end of the game. It is something that we have seen happen in senior games, but for some reason, this is the only thing that Sportsound have found worthy of being on their Twitter account after a memorable Youth Cup final victory for the Light Blues youngsters. It really is strange and it is not a shock at all to see so many Rangers fans furious with the broadcaster in the replies to one of the tweets. Sportsound need to do a lot more if they want to prove that they are not anti-Rangers, because this tweet just seems like it has been put out to provoke the Gers fanbase.
