upgotheheads Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) 27 minutes ago, Whatever said: Fired in a complaint about the wee Nyaff. Not that anything will change but that yesterday was a disgrace. The BBC website has a complaints link. They ask a lot of questions but it only takes a couple of minutes, so if everyone on here does it they will maybe get the message. McLeod is a rotten commentator at the best of times but yesterday's example was the worst I've heard, he was basically broadcasting to one set of fans. 12 minutes ago, Pasquale for King said: The whole BBC coverage of Scottish football is amateur and just wrong, failed managers and players with alleged journalists, mostly OF sycophants. Spot on. Between them the SPFL, the SFA and BBC Scotland sports editors and presenters are a bunch of amateurs and second raters who drag Scottish football down. The only exception to that is Cosgrave and Tam Cowan and the off the ball crew. Edited December 21, 2020 by upgotheheads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey1874 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 They are very much in the moment. Pre set excitement levels. Very little analysis. Nothing about how we were taking control of the game second half. Nothing about how the game was open due to Edouard missing 3 great chances at start of second half. He seems to be one of the untouchable ones. Nothing about the refereeing. There was so much going on but it seemed all to pass the commentary team by.

neilnunb Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Thankfully I watched it on Premier yesterday but I can't stand Liam McLeod generally. His constant over excitement, treating a throw in like a winning goal, his repeated trivial pish every 10 minutes...it baffles me he is seen as the BBC's 'top' commentator up here. I don't know if Paul Mitchell has other commitments but why did this little pipsqueak jump ahead of him in the pecking order? I know Mitchell is supposedly a Hearts fan but I have never taken that from his commentary. Infact he was covering the Hibs game on Saturday with fake Hearts fan Preston, and the pair of them were creaming themselves over Hibs. Thankfully I don't pay the licence though. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one point, Dodds basically, after a Hearts free kick & total panic in the Celtic back line , said Hearts should just hump it in the box because Celtic are hopeless at the back.

People say McLeod doesn't shut up. Well, he did on Sunday. It actually became embarrassing. So ****ing traumatized by how it was unfolding he couldn't even prompt Dodds to any insight beyond fear of the unthinkable. It gets to 3 all and we are advised we are getting into Dundee United v Motherwell territory as if the number of goals was the overriding story here and not that Hearts were looking likely to score every time they attacked. You could sense his pain. That's not impartiality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locky Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I very seldom listen to commentary much on Hearts games, and recently, it's been more Laurie Dunsire I've listened to which is enjoyable. That on Sunday was ****ing horrendous though. He was waffling some stats off that were just completely wrong and the love in for Celtic was incredible. Even the 3 pundits in the studio, former Celtic manager, ex-Hearts player who for some reason ****ing hates us and now works for Celtic TV and Shelley Kerr, who's got **** all to do with either side, but in fairness, she actually was worth listening to. Very complimentary about a brave Hearts performance. Thank **** I don't pay my TV licence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
