Patrick Bateman Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Anyone else heard this alcoholic/beetroot faced chump over the past few days? Not content with fabricating unsourced stories about player discontentment, how 'all Hearts fans are up in arms" and other such nonsense, his approach to questioning during Sergio's first press conference is something else. For someone from an organisation which prides itself on its apparent neutrality, Brian McLaughlin has barely been able to conceal his contempt towards Hearts. He pretty much tried to tell Sergio that the fans were angry at him, tried pressing him on when he expected to be sacked and tried telling him about player unhappiness. Now, why should Hearts tolerate this kind of behaviour? Why do we provide this little rodent with access? We certainly don't have to. I have to say, STV and, from what I've seen, SSN have handled this story with a bit more respect. I guess Hearts are the only team that BBC Scotchland feel comfortable attacking and criticising, considering they are too afraid to point out the Glasgow Cancer's various indiscretions. Maybe its time Brian McLaughin got the Hans Christian Banderson treatment? We shouldn't show slime like that any respect or give them the time of day. Thoughts?

dunxjambo Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 as someone else pointed out, he's a male Chicken. i think he has a personal friendship with JJ & BB so this maybe affecting his judgement in being able to conduct himself at the conference.

Chad Sexington Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 His snide behavior during that press conference made me want to punch my monitor in. At one point he cut Paulo dead with a "I understand about your ambitions. What's your remit from the club???" In a really aggressive tone. Feckin welt. We should ban the fat modedit.

Wish Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Complete agreement with the OP. I've upgraded my original assessment of him, he's a very large male chicken.

Cut The Crap Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I suspect he's well in with Southern as well. The only member of the fourth estate invited to the Scottish Cup winning party at Murrayfield in 2006. And this is how he repays that hospitality. Probably overcompensates for the fact that he is a diehard Jambo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely think, we (the fans) should make a concerted effort to get certain 'journalists' (and I use the word VERY loosely) banned from Tynecastle. There have been lots of 'agenda led' Press Conferences over the years but this one was without doubt the worst.

I thought the line of questioning was shockingly disrespectful to a new arrival in Scotland. Typical mischevious questioning and yet not one journalist seemed to answer the questions Hearts fans wanted regarding football. I thought given the relationship between the press and Vlad, Hearts should have fielded someone to help PS in his first conference particularly as he admitted his English wasn`t great yet. However I thought he handled it reasonably well in the circumstances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from your comment about fabricating player discontent - because we don't know that - I agree. It's possible a player told him this in confidence therefore he can't name the player in the public domain. But as he works from the BBC he should be more neutral. He is entitled to ask "So given the succession of manager's at the club did you have any qualms about accepting the job?" But he shouldn't be getting as worked up or involved as he is. He is a reporter not a columnist and is there to report the facts. Leave opinions to Charlie Nicholas etc. While I despise the guy, he is paid to be opinionated and generate debate. Part of the problem may be that McLaughlin is a friend of Jefferies so he feels he is sticking up for a friend. Still no excuse though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the problem may be that McLaughlin is a friend of Jefferies so he feels he is sticking up for a friend. Still no excuse though. As far as I'm concerned, until he can prove what the mystery player said, then I'll take it as a fabrication. It wouldn't be the first time that a BBC Scotchland journo had invented something to do with HMFC. I'm pretty sure McLaughlin used the expression "If you would just answer my question..." - Now, who does he think he is? Showing up at a new manager's press conference, a man whose first language is not English and who is essentially being attacked by every journalist in the room. I'm hopeful that Sergio can foster a siege mentality against this lot, because it could be quite beneficial. In the meanwhile, I'd be quite content for Hearts to go back to releasing every story through the official site: if news is a commodity, then why should the club gift it to dying media sectors for free, unless it is in some way beneficial? These parasites need to realise that such press conferences are an opportunity to learn something about a man new to Scottish football; instead we were treated to something akin to a show-trial. The club should always take a zero tolerance approach to this; in 15 minutes we were only shown what we already knew: that the Scottish media is an amateurish, self-serving, disgrace.

Only a Game Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I think someone at Hearts, on behalf of Sergio should be approaching this clown and withdrawing his access after what he tried to do to the poor man today. Or Sergio should be saying to the PA at Hearts "See him, he doesnt attend another one of my press conferences !!" Shocking conduct by him and at least one other today. Sounded like Graham Spiers but surely not ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo318 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Im not too bothered what any of the press say, I thought paulo was pretty cool during that conference Considering the questions they were asking. Not one question about how he intends to play or if he Wants to bring anyone in. I will be concentrating all my efforts on supporting the new manager and Let's all leave the press to fight over how fantastic rangers were tonight and how unlucky they were!
