Martin_T Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Three of the guys are Hearts fans (Craig, Joel and Robert), but being a Hearts fan doesn't mean that you have to continually eulogise about the club. I'm a fan of the podcast having only discovered it this season and thought that they put on a good show. It's definitely giving Scottish football, particularly lower league football, which for thousands of people every Saturday is their life, coverage on TV that it's perhaps never had previously.

heartmussel Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 12 hours ago, gnasher75 said: Why are people so quick to criticise? I listened to Sportsound earlier and they spent another 40 minutes mourning the departure of Brendan Rodgers. In a 90 minute programme they finally got round to mentioning the Thistle v Hearts game with 4 minutes to go and spent most of that time discussing a Thistle player who eats eggs even though he doesn't like them. This was a very refreshing change! Not all about the Old Firm. Lots of informative chat about the lower leagues. Tons of stuff packed in. Totally different from anything else I've seen. If you missed it it should be available on iPlayer. Exactly mate? It seems to be a Hearts thing?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavK1012 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) Its nice to have some coverage of our game minus Tic and Sevco...watched it and was enough for me to tune in again...anyone getting their knuckers in a twist and being negative really needs a bit of chearing up and a hug!!! Well done chaps... ? Oh and if we needed proof that a lot of folk moan with no justification or basis it is evidenced by some on this thread moaning about Jambo bashing and agenda against us when they are in the main Jambos on the show!!!

He just doesn’t take football so seriously that he can’t take digs or make jokes at the club’s expense. I think the audience for the show will be the same as podcast, which are fans of the charms of Scottish football. As someone said on Twitter, Stephen O’Donnell baking empire biscuits on TV is “peak Scottish football”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They Obv can't say half the stuff they say in podcasts but was still good to see Scottish football (all Scottish football not just Glasgow 2) getting spoken about. Refreshing change although still lots of room for improvement. I laughed more at the mascot and his shorts more than I have at any OAE scene from the last few years. Also enjoyed the Cowdenbeath section. That's BBC Alba and now this that put main BBC sports team to shame for coverage and way they report. There-in lies a problem. If the ''OF isn't mentioned 90 percent of the time, ''OF'' fans won't watch it. They aren't interested in anything in life in general, only their ''rivalry''. Quite why they'd watch a Stranraer player boil an egg or the Ayr Utd kit man talk about his favorite style of trousers is beyond me. Good luck to all those involved.

richiehmfc Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I'm a big fan of the podcast and like the fact the boys actually take the time to research stats/games/players but it is also light hearted. I wouldn't say the tv show flowed as naturally but considering this is pretty much all of their debuts on TV i dont think its a huge surprise. Overall i really enjoyed it and i think it will only get better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August Landmesser Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I enjoyed it too, not quite as free-flowing as the podcast, but that's probably down to the different format and first-night nerves. Really enjoyed the short film of the Cowdenbeath game and the mascot at Raith.The Terrace guys clearly love Scottish football, and do their research, unlike the clowns on Sportsound.

RobboM Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I thought it was a decent effort for a first show. I found it a bit too frantic with the early studio chat stuff but the filmed stuff was well worth watching and if they can relax into the studio chat portions then it looks to be a worthwhile contribution to Scottish football coverage imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
