I genuinely laughed out loud there.

Congratulations on being the first person in the history of the universe to ever put those exact words, in to that exact order. If an asteroid the size of the moon was to come through our atmosphere and cream Bonner squarely on the temple, I still don’t think I would be able to utter those words. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is absolutely a comment on the standard of Jane Lewis as a broadcaster, rather than an endorsement of Mr Bonner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I understood that. It’s not an endorsement for anyone. It was a genuine reaction to reading the words ‘harsh on Bonner’, which will never be said again. (Unless it’s in comparison to Jane Lewis). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I'd definitely buy an audio book of "The Art of the Deal" read by Willie Miller, or "How to Win Friends and Influence People" read by Kris Boyd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s surprising that he couldn’t pronounce a Celtic players name correctly, he could tell you what the Celtic Under 13s left back had for lunch 6 weeks ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cove will bring absolutely nothing to the Championship Why wouldn't it be a good thing? Football is a sporting contest. They were the best team in the non-league in 2018/19 and therefore were rightly promoted into the SPFL, then they were the best team in League 2 in 2019/20 and were deservedly promoted, and if they're the best team in League 1 in 2021/22 then they'll be deservedly promoted again. The SFL didn't want that, they were content with teams bungling on in the bottom tier with zero incentive to improve themselves. I don't think it's inconceivable that the introduction of the pyramid could have been one of the things which led to the recent resurgence at a club like Montrose either, or maybe even Arbroath - perhaps getting a wee boot up the backside helped them turn things around. Even in terms of off the field stuff, why would they be any less of an asset to the Championship than Alloa or Dumbarton were? Cove have a similar average attendance to both clubs and their stadium is not vastly different aside from being a bit more of a ballache to get to. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhereman Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Not that it really matters, but there were 1100 at Balmoral yesterday. That seems like a decent crowd to me!
