GinRummy Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 6 minutes ago, All roads lead to Gorgie said: I didn't even listen to yesterday's games and I only took a passing interest in the scores when they were read out in the news later in the day. That's how it will be for the rest of the season as far as the Premiership is concerned and Sportscene is off the agenda for me. I'm not expecting much coverage of The Championship with The Rangers or The Lochend Brazil not in it this time around. Feel similar. At least we’ll get games on a Friday night on bbc1. Hopefully mostly away games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ari Gold Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 12 hours ago, Tazio said: I predict Hibs to have their usual good start to the season, and then lose one senior player to injury and blame the subsequent slide down the league on that. Cue all of them talking for years about the “year that could have been if only Boyle (or other diddy) hadn’t been injured” and actually believing it. Sounds familiar tbf Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We will have to listen to Steven Thompson bungling through his piece to camera though but that can be funny in itself 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a wee routine for our TV games now, where I follow the build up on kickback then switch on at kick off. Much less anger that way😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gershwin Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Watched Sportscene last night and it was so cringey and amateur. Wooden guests are a staple on this show but the camera work and sound were all over the place. The standard of football seemed even worse than usual too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how it gets fixed. Its a catch 22. We need more investment to improve the quality, but the BBC are unwilling to invest in it. I wonder if ITV or Channel 4 might be interested in taking it over. With the ad revenue they get they could invest properly in hiring interesting pundits and just generally improving the quality. Its gets thousands of viewers tuning in, so would likely be a good show for them to pick up IMO. Edited August 2, 2020 by OTT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can get quicker with practice but natural pace plus a bit of ability is what all the best players have. Not going overboard with the wee hibs rat here but he’s decent. Imo obviously. No doubting he’s a good player for them right now. Totally reliant on his pace though. Thing is he will start losing that in the next couple of years. When he doesn’t have that blistering pace he won’t even be a half decent player and will be worth exactly he-haw. Ivan Sproule comes to mind Quote Link to post Share on other sites
avhudtheteeshirt Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Did anyone else notice the challenge for Aberdeen's red card, yes Considine showed his studs to get the ball, but Arfield came into the same challenge with 2 feet? Never seen 2 players red carded for the same challenge before, but this could and probably should have been!!! Ref's still blinkered when it comes to the Uglies!!!!

Ah well, shame for the sheep then 😁 This is the Scottish Football 81% we’re happy to stand alongside. The football of protecting two clubs above all else. Unethical and downright corrupt.

Craig Herbertson Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Won't be watching any of it. I stopped watching the EPL because of the ridiculous money and now I can't watch our own league because it just sickens me. I will go to Hearts home games to meet my pals. As for the rest if it I would rather watch my son play fives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shaggy2 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Surprise surprise, blue nosed Bobby and Celtic Willie get their respective teams openers. Red card for Aberdeen that could have seen a Rangers red, too and Celtic score from a free-kick (albeit 80 yards from Hamilton’s goal) that looked the other way to me when Julien climbed over the Hamilton player. Wish I’d bet corners on this one. edit: and goals! Edited August 2, 2020 by Shaggy2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nelly Terraces Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Turned on radio 5 yesterday & the Sheep v Sevco game was on. Listened to roughly 30 seconds before turning off. Was TV channel hopping earlier & lingered for 10 seconds on Sportscene before moving on. That's it for me for this season. Less than 1 minute. Genuinely have zero interest & actually hate every single aspect of football here. It's just utterly shite & cringey on every level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
