I don't but he's obviously not actually a very good pundit. Far more interested in talking about the usual controversies and sideshows that Scottish pundits love talking about rather than actually analysing football.

You haven’t listened to much of what he has said over the years, have you?

Absolute nonsense, Kenny McIntyre just letting it roll on and on highlights not only his incompetence as a host by not shutting it down but also that the BBC are happy with a dispute leading to shouting and falling out over an actual discussion on the team.

I did laugh out at "Explain it to me, because you clearly think I'm thick as mince" at 25:45 of the podcast though

The BBC are more than happy with it. In fact, they're promoting a video of it on the Scottish Football part of BBC Sport.

More pushing of their pal Doddsy for Dundee, with "Biscuits" even suggesting that the current coach should be removed to make way for him as he's been there too long (I think that's what his wittering was suggesting).  He can see them going up the league if they get Doddsy in because he's that kind of guy.  "Bullie's infectious", apparently. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Of course the BBC are happy with it, a lot of people are discussing/listening to it.

A cynical person could maybe think that it was staged...

Yes, I saw that earlier.

It's a bit depressing that this is what they see as worth promoting.   I wouldn't go so far as suggesting it's staged - I think both egoes were sufficiently dented for the exchange to be real.  I also think however that it goes some way to explaining why there's no real attempt to derail the shambles as it degenerates.

It looks like they're trying to muscle in on the Clyde audience.  It's nothing new, but the latest stooges should really be less willing.

Does anyone else absolutely hate the way they all have nicknames for each other ('Biscuits' being a prime example)?  It's so chummy and jobs-for-the-boys.

You've always wanted a nickname but never gotten one....

Chris Sutton has fucked it for everyone. His schtick worked/works for him just. But now every other pundit feels the requirement to go down that road.

Yep.  Sutton is fairly intelligent, and can play the heel character pretty well.  Where as people like Boyd definitely aren't.

When Dodds turn in to this super coach who will propel Dundee up the league? 

Yes, that was very much the tone last night, with both Miller and Preston agreeing that McIntyre needs absolute freedom to bring in Dodds, whilst the fans must all pull together and get behind the club. 

There seemed to be a belief too that fans are split and plenty would welcome Dodds.  Maybe that's true, but there's not been evidence of it on here.

I was driving home from work listening to Miller and Preston's Billy Dodds puff sesh last night and couldn't believe what I was hearing.  It was literally every negative observation about Dundee could be solved by the appointment of Billy Dodds.

Honestly waiting for Biscuits to announce that Billy Dodds has single-handedly apprehended the murderers of Jamal Khashoggi.
