H_B Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 In Euro 2008, I think it was David Pleat that in the first half of one of their matches kept calling them Czechoslovakia, but someone must have attempted to correct him at half time. The entire second half he was calling them the Republic of Czechoslovakia. Having just checked my facts, it seems someone else noticed. I remember when England played Slovakia, one of the commentators bemoaned why they had played the game in this shit stadium and not Prague... Mmmm...

craigkillie Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 The Sunday Mail today named Liam Kelly as man of the match in our game yesterday, and then accompanied it with a nice wee photo of James Fowler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee4Life1893 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Came across this little gem on BBC Sportscene. "FULL TIME: SC1: Queen of the South 4-1 Morton Queen of the South scored four times in the first half to stun Morton and earn their FIRST league victory of the season. Kevin Smith's hat-trick and Tom Brighton's header sealed the win." Obviously our win against Hamilton last week hasn't filtered through to them. The lazyness of the journalism in this country is truly astounding. Surely that would be written by the BBC reporter at the game? Since Sandra Brown (a QoS fan) was doing open all mikes and screaming like some kind of demented parrot at every goal. I assume it was her.

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Today's Inverness Courier It was at Hampden in April last year that Adams guided County to the most notable triumph in the club's short history - a 2-0 Scottish Cup semi-final sucess against Celtic. I'm not disputing the most notable triumph part, but short history FFS. We've only been in existence for about 82 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The BBC have managed okay with their report on the East Fife game tonight, but the Press Association stats at the bottom feature the mercurial talents of superstar Robert Floan. That's not even a name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 They said on the radio that the BBC website had Aberdeen's third against East Fife down as " Fallon, free kick from 12 yards" That'll be a penalty then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Sandra Brown (a QoS fan) was doing open all mikes and screaming like some kind of demented parrot at every goal. I assume it was her. Not sure that the sportscene piece would be written by her. Although you are right in your second comment. She quite often screams like a demented parrot. Doesn't always make a lot of sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Falkirk 3-2 Rangers (BBC) First Division Falkirk fielded 10 teenagers and had to deal with some early pressure from the visitors.

BigRubberFist Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Photo caption on the back page of yesterday's Dumfries & Galloway (Sub) Standard had an action shot from last weekend's game. It claimed the picture showed Tom Brighton scoring against Hamilton. Similar away kit to Morton, I will admit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owsley Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Chris Roberts, another appalling Record journo, states today that East Fife are a Third Division club.

Sergeant Wilson Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 10 man Airdrie? Robert Thomson of The Currant Bun says Dundee Utd "swept past 10 man Airdrie" through the week. Did they Robert, what happened? Did Airdrie start with 10 or did one of their young players get shouted in for his bed because no-one got sent off.

Disco Duck Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Falkirk 3-2 Rangers (BBC) Number of teenagers in the Falkirk team - 4 (+1 sub). I think there was 10 in the squad, which I think is what they were getting at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKee Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 According to the BBC website Morton have a 38 man squad. I particularly like the sound of James Grady, Bryan Hodge and Stewart McCarthy. We should give them a run-out sometime. B Trialist sounds like sum playa in the making. We'll need to nurture him well.

partick_twinny Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I think there was 10 in the squad, which I think is what they were getting at. It originally said they 'fielded' 10 teenagers though. Now been updated with four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
