Also once he's realised he hasn't contributed for a while he'll roll out a cliche that will include"..and it will be great for Scottish football". I think media companies should start giving proper job interviews to these players in the twilight of their careers looking to get into cooshty punditry business. Weed out the drab, useless fkers. Listeners are tired of being subjected to cliche driven incoherent ramblings. It's a tired format. Your point's a good one, BUT look how Derek Ferguson has grown into the job - never the most articulate but always an enthusiast, and thankfully never sent to Ibrox by the BBC. Covers Hamilton, Motherwell and Thistle pretty well - I even heard him use the word 'aforementioned' the other week. He was slated for being inarticulate when he first came on air. As was Ryan Stevenson, who also went on to be reasonably decent before going to Australia. Until you actually do the job....... Commons and McDonald are both articulate people who will hopefully eventually take the place of the 80s relics Miller and McLeod, so no issue with them cutting their teeth right now. If they have the odd wobbly moment, then so what? We've all had them in our jobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rude Gullit Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I think he's just finding his way into it - a mix of nerves with flashes of insight peppered with cliches. What is unforgivable is last night's performance: constantly referred to england as 'we' and sighed in delight when 1966 was mentioned. This is an outraaage!

McLeod is nothing more than a Celtic fan boy whereas Miller is often scathing of the dons even when they play well. I'd get rid of chick young asap, he's useless. Stewart is one of the best pundits on tv and radio. Mcdonald is a sulk, look back in this thread. He admitted that he would dive to gain an advantage then threw the toys out of the pram when spiers pulled him up on it. Ill admit to having and irrational dislike of Commons, he always came across as a player who had zero interest in Scotland, far too arrogant for a player of limited ability. It's not wobbly moments it's his boring nature and the fact he just rolls out soundbites about Celtic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JECK Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Do we really need to listen to yet another cliche driven, relative non entity like Commons? The answer is emphatically no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Derek Ferguson is a fave of mine as he's honest about his mistakes, is enthusiastic about our game and once tried to say synthetic 3 or 4 times before giving up.

Aye - I've grown to like him as well, he makes a few mistakes (don't we all) but he loves our game & talks our language - i'm also in a minority as I always thought he was a better player than his wee brother ??

I watched that show the other week... Commons is by no means a natural TV face but looked classy and polished standing beside that utter roaster. Boyd was 'interviewing' Tommy Wright and kept making reference to the one specific game he knew about (the one he played in) trying to extrapolate his view over the entire team/previous season. Wright was visibility tiring of his cretinous thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off topic but I thought I thought I'd get your attention here, youre pissing into the wind by posting anything Scotland related on AFC-chat. With a handful of posters It becomes a competition to see who can support Scotland the least. It's always the same few! in fact you're pissing into the wind posting on their at all nowadays, it's the same inane drivel everyday by a very vocal few.

andyD Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Got to say, I was listening the sportsound lot in the build up on Friday.. I had to turn it off. I've come to absolutely hate the lot of them. So negative it's ridiculous. 45 minutes before kick off and they're all on about how Strachan should be sacked now, before kick off, and how we're dead and buried already, there's really no point in playing any more matches. What a bunch of absolute losers. I don't usually listen and i can't say i ever will again after that. Literally the worst possible build up to a match that i could imagine.

mariokempes56 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I especially liked this one.... Quote I was one of these 'mainstay' supporters, Wembley trips, Liverpool, internationals at Hampden all enjoyed in like-minded company and having a wee 'sash bash' in the Rangers-end when results were going against us. Now, I wouldn't cross the road to watch them. That is utter pish. Been going since early 70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So-called Aberdeen fans driving everyone else away and posting anti-national team garbage worthy of the very worst of other clubs they supposedly hate.
