This was before he became all Rangersy. Not as good as David Mellor on 606 but decent. This 'fans shite' they are doing is a bit cringy but Sanjeev Kohli is a funny bloke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe age and distance have improved it. I'd listen to it online and my auld dear - then in her late 70s and a (genuine) Airdrie fan - would phone me and discuss it...but always with a positive Airdrie spin. Sentiment, eh? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Patterson Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 To be fair to the BBC I think the difference with what they did today and SSB/Your Call, was that all the callers were fans that kind of knew what they were talking about, I think some of them may also be fan bloggers on the BBC Sport website. I thought it worked relatively well, the musical interludes were a bit odd, but it was far better than Off The Ball. Fair play to them trying something a bit different. Hope they keep with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shudder to think. My first thought was that it'd just be more time devoted to the OF but to be fair it wasn't. Some tweaks needed for definite in the weeks ahead and would be good to have fans of teams outside the Premier on the programme too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard a bit of that earlier , suppose the folk on it are safe bets not to be "ragin maniacs" and at least can construct proper debate ..Good for folk who like listening to geeks , bad for anyone else who likes beetroot faced , veins poppin , lager fuelled psycho,s 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A wee guy who went on about Rrrrrrraaaangers being the best team in the world, and rrrrrrraangers being amazing, and how they were Rrrrrrrangers etc. traynor, obviously before he was employed with them, replies, you might well be Rrrrrrangers, but right now your are Rrraaank rrrrrrrotten.

I’ll be honest I never gave it a chance because they introduced Lambert & him MacIntyre spent the first 5 minutes talking about why “Rangers” fans are protesting. Gave them an excuse to bring in Celtic. Blah blah blah. Radio went off at that point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they had a couple of fans on from Hearts and Aberdeen, some other team in Ayrshire and a couple of Tartan Army soldiers as well that I heard. Room for improvement definitely, especially from the lower leagues hopefully. Perhaps even throw in some non league scores as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Guys like lambert should be nowhere near a Saturday afternoon. It’s pretty clear he has no interest in the Scottish domestic game outside of the OF. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozam76 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Half time listening today peaking with Can’t Stop by the Chili Peppers fused with Ceilidh music, all to the background of the incomparable Richard Gordon. Not going to lie, it was a joy for the ears. One I didn’t know I needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wish someone just outed him by asking him specifics like what do you think hearts problem is? Team selection? Formation? The fans talked about McKay starting every week and feeling sorry for Alan Forrest. Who would you pick? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree - for a guy who played over 300 games for 'diddy' clubs in our league, it is amazing how utterly obsessed he seems with the two weegie clubs, whilst giving the impression who knows lauren bacall about the current situation at any club outside that. He even seemed to laugh at someone having the audacity to 'link' him with a club like Motherwell, whilst serving us his customary reminder about someone else in days gone by saying that his move to Dortmund wouldn't work out for him (in a Rambo McInally 'Bayerrrrnnnn type way) I have no idea why Sportsound even bothering getting him on. Given they now have another hour to fill on a Saturday evening, it would be a bit less painful to get someone with a bit more insight.
