The Guardian did it again with its coverage of Scotland. On Saturday in the Sports Section (April 10th) there was not one mention of the two Scottish Cup semi-finals. And on Monday (April 12th) no coverage of either result, including Ross County’s sensational victory over Celtic. But you did have space for the Spanish League.
The Guardian seems to imagine its readers want to inhabit a parallel universe where they know nothing about Scottish football. This would be a place where they knew nothing about Celtic winning the European Cup in ’67, Rangers winning the Cup Winners Cup, or Fergie beginning his European pedigree with Aberdeen winning the Cup Winners Cup in ’83. This is all a little unbecoming of The Guardian and more akin to North Korean censorship!
