He even managed to emerge without credit when arguing with John Brown a couple of years ago for the same reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad someone else spotted it. I've been ranting about it on the Journalism thread. It happened at lunchtime too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbs33 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I am a fan of sportsound and listen to the podcasts most days. For all the drivel of chick young and the rest, last night was the first time I've ever had to switch it off.English and Stewart were a disgrace, both seemed to have the belief whoever shifted loudest made the most valid point. Kenny hosted equally to blame for making no effort whatsoever to control them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I just love a bitch fight but I found myself pausing it when the kids were loud (something I'd not normally do). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tastes vary, but I can't deny I enjoy watching and listening when things start to go tits up. It's the unpredictability of it. My wife watches shite like celebrity big brother and every now and then, despite my protests, I get sucked in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy Snake Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Sportsound, and in particular Willie Miller, are a disgrace. Richard Gordon seems to be the only person with a vague grasp of how the Nations League, and even then I'm not convinced he fully understands it. Willie Miller openly admitted he's not bothered to look into the competition at all. He didnt even know which countries were competing in it. Retire or sack him, just don't let him on my radio ever again. After the petty nonsense between Tom English and Michael Stewart on Monday and now this, I think that's me done with Sportsound.

It truly is amazing that you can earn a living by talking about football to thousands of people, but feel absolutely no obligation to ensure that you're informed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat(The most tip top) Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I don’t normally listen to Sportsound but after seeing the fuss on here I downloaded Monday’s episode. I didn’t learn much about football but Michael Stewart and Tom English are brilliant they should have their own show I’m thinking maybe team captains on a pointless argument based panel game. Round one: Michael argues that Morrisey was a genius while Tom explains why Johnny Marr was the real talent 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody understands it! I understand it. Just took a few minutes' reading online. It's amazing how everybody seems to be absolutely flummoxed by the competition, as if it's somehow the most complicated thing ever. It's really quite simple and I think it's a big improvement on having international friendlies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember last season he was commentating on a game which didn’t involve Aberdeen or the Old Firm, so his lack of enthusiasm was apparent throughout the match. He was asked about St Johnstone’s possible line-up or formation and he sneered that he’s got better things to do with his time than research such things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
