P&B has improved but we also had posters using "SPFL" to mean the top tier.

The Ben has an easy affiliation with acronyms. I see it as an expression of creativity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous that these guys on the radio haven't sorted this out. It really is not at all difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 They're not giving out any score updates on Leagues 1 and 2. Very, very poor show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-MAN Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Programme advertised as talking about Celtic Aberdeen Rangers and Hibs. 45 mins on the Glasgow Derby15 minutes on AFC Hibs with constant references to Celtic. I don't know why I put myself through it night after night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I don't often listen to the midweek but stayed late at work today and heard a wee bit on the way home tonight. Wow. Is it always that bad? I heard about 30 minutes, totally devoted to one game. The pundits couldn't understand anything about the game by the way their confusion became more and more strained. Then at one point Spiers was talking about how the new Rangers manager was needing time to sort things out and that it was still Warburton's squad before Pat Bonner interrupted him saying something "But Graham, he needs time! He needs to get his own players in!" - either he wasn't listening or he totally didn't understand he was making the same point. Barry Ferguson's sounds even thicker than his brother when he does he is Jack. And. Jill. Live. In. Hill. Street. Style match reports. And Kenny "That's FAN-tastic" McIntyre just sounds anything like a professional broadcaste. I'm glad I don't hear it often tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 The Sportsound rogue's gallery from Hampden on Sunday. Bonner and Boyd...taking glaikit expressions to new levels. (It's also mildly amusing that, given the debate over the definition of "statuesque" on the other thread, Liam McLeod has to peer round his monitor to see the pitch). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
