Why would they though?  It’s the equivalent of us going mental if some vermin dived to win them a penalty in a game, we would be outraged etc then a couple games later one of ours go down similar, you think anyone would be outraged then?  I get bbc Scotland is meant to be impartial but I think all bets are off when it’s the national side, the audience and presenters all want Scotland to win as a supporter.  Why would they be outraged that someone won Scotland a penalty? It’s the equivalent again of going mental yesterday had that been Scotland disallowed a perfect legit goal but because it assisted Scotland yesterday nobody really cared.

Tbf to Stewart his beef has been with Levein and he pulled back from criticising  McPhee  and the club too directly , Preston’s comments were bizarre to say the least maybe didnae get as many free pies as he expected last time at tynecastle ,Miller and the rest can GTF , fawning over Gerrard and his team all season and they canny even get through the front door , no one even questions where Rangers money for this title challenge is coming from , and yet they deride the rest of the clubs who have learned to live within their means , not putting up a challenge to richy rich and their bankrupt sidekick

Stewart has slaughtered us for two years mate. Why did Dick Gordon just about slip up last week just about to say ***** McPhee but managed to stop himself in time. With all of them sniggering in the background. He knows nothing about McPhee only what Stewart has been feeding them.

Chick Young was particularly bad in the early days of Romanov. He did not like the OF status quo being threatened. Particularly as it was his beloved Rangers who came up short. Even Richard Gordon, who has no fondness for Hearts, pulled him up about his glee when we conceded a goal.  

 

Richard Gordon has whined a few times about him and his mates being chased out of the Gorgie Road End on the opening day of the '78/79. Aberdeen went 1-2 ahead before HT, the Gorgie Aggro were displeased and chased them out the ground. They had to leave. Gives me a warm glow just picturing it. 

 

Allan Preston, "the voice of Hearts" on Sportsound (try not to laugh) claimed he'd played his part in the Hibs 22. In truth, he was a late sub in one game. We lost wee Crabbo and got him, ffs. 

 

Liam McLeod, randomly starts shouting during commentaries for no apparent reason. Still mentions 5-1 for no apparent reason too, so I'll give him the b of the d. 

 

Pat Bonnar's participation is sickening. License fee dough to a guy who believes he's on Celtic tv/radio. In a Europa tie earlier this season he actually accused the ref of colluding with the opposition's captain as they left the field at half time. Suggested, too, that there was some cross border shenanigans going on. All designed to cheat poor Celtic. 

 

Willie Miller, Billy Dodds, Michael Stewart, sideways Fergie...can any other programme, tv or radio, boast such a cretinous cast? 

 

Chick Young regularly described employees of Romanov, perfectly decent folk like Serg Fedotovas, as "henchmen". He laughed on air at Malofeyev who, while obviously being old school and in a job he wasn't suited for, still had an absolutely fantastic career as a player and manager behind him.

 

Young reduced him to the level of a bumbling clown. Total joke so this is nothing new for the BBC. It's also ironic as Young used to present a show - Chick Young's World of Football - when he looked at European football and profiled colourful characters around the world, and pretended to be this cultured, worldly football man. When one of the most interesting characters in Europe pitches up in Scotland he lampoons him.

A strong fightback and a storming end to the season to claim a European spot would cause much mirth around here.

Especially if we were to pip Aberdeen on the final day of the season.

We are already 13 points behind them and have won only 2 league matches. It’s about time we realised where we are in this league!! We won’t be competing for Europe yet again this season because we allowed that clown of a manager to start the season in charge!!! 
We are looking at mid table at best yet again.

Stewart stood up for McPhee. It was that numptie Alan Preston who's been slagging him off. Preston, Miller and Gordon all need emptied. As someone posted earlier, get the Terrace lads in.

Yep. Let Preston, Miller and the other goons do the Open All Mics stuff and give others the microphone to do the analysis and review stuff that requires a bit more research, balance and, let's be honest, intelligence. Cosgrove, Cowan, English (or why do we never hear Ewan Murray, Patullo, even Aidan Smith the Hibbee b****** on the radio?), and the Terrace lads or one or two of them, would be a better combo than the usual suspects.

Definitely true. 

 

I was at the Aberdeen game on the opening day (ended up 1-4) and there was no official segregation and a lot of crowd trouble. 

 

Our next home game was v. Hibs. I was only 10yo and deemed to young to attend by my dad, but it was the last derby/cat A game that didn't have segregation. The trouble when Hibs equalized late on was the final straw, apparently.

One of the other ones I like is when st mirren were playing rangers and he was claiming he was a st mirren fan. St mirren took the lead and the camera panned to him and his face was tripping him something rotten

[SectionDJambo]

It seems that these goons have maybe gone too far this time. Criticism when justified, and given with respect, is one thing. Behaving like the playground gang, name calling and just being an idiot is another.

No doubt, if or when they get a reaction on their next jolly to Tynecastle, they’ll have a greet about the bad things said about them.

And that allows for the gaggle of unprofessional wankers to:
Rip the piss out of MacPhee's appearance.
Nearly refer to him, on-air, as "***** MacPhee".
Have Willie Miller taking the piss at our stated ambitions of competing for Europa League, as if only the old firm and Aberdeen are worthy and Hearts are an uppity St Midden or of similar stature?

NONE of this has anything to do with our current position, it's just downright disrespectful to individuals and to us as a club.

They ain't much better overall in terms of professionalism or insight, but towards us they often go far further than they would dare with the old firm, their beloved Aberdeen or their wee pet Hibs.

Never took to him as a player. As a radio pundit hes the aural equivalent of a magic eye poster. You have to concentrate hard to understand the picture he is trying to show you, and invariably when you finally make sense of it, it's a huge disappointment and wasn't worth the effort.

No two ways about it. Hearts supporter pundit who is in 'the club', so he will always drive an agenda that looks after his mates. Clearly Austin ain't in that club. Similar to a supporter slinking around hospitality and thinking that pallying up to former players or managers somehow makes them more of an authority to abuse current incumbents.

There was a line of police in between.

Last time I remember it happening in the shed was 1982. The "failed to get promotion" riot. Don't recall any major incidents after that. Just the wild celebrations which probably answers its own question. Happier times=happier fans.

I stand corrected though i do remember it being mental. A wall of cops between both sets then a charge through the shed. Naughty naughty but in those days there was more fun on the terracing than on the pitch most of the time.
