Told by personal staffer- not Rangers- we couldn’t ask certain questions including about Neil Lennon and sectarianism. Then she disappeared.
Been waiting for him here for hours. Nobody even told us in person it was off.
Minutes before he was supposed to arrive I was told by Gerrard’s representative what he would and would not talk about.
We had an amicable chat. She went off. Not seen her since.
I said I’d like to explore what Steven Gerrard’s wife says about him being an emotional person.
I was told not to reference his wife directly and instead say ‘in the film it says you’re an emotional person.’
It was suggested I ask him in general terms what it’s like to be manager of Rangers.
‘In Scotland you call it sectarianism, I call it racism..I’m just one person so I need more people to come out and call it what it really is.’
It’s one of the clips the makers sent us in advance. So assume he would have been anticipating questions about vitriol in football.
