More simply, it came across very much as a broadcaster sitting in a stadium 90% full of Celtic fans making a lazy comment. Maybe, although Kenny Mc doesnt have a history of talking up Celtic! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar P Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Fairly sure that on the Hampden tour a year or so ago we were told that the only time Rangers had used the ‘Celtic’ (away) dressing room was when they played Queens Park in their recent lower league fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stylish Kid Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Just a general observation - in the Edinburgh Derby the other week, all the journalists a) blamed Fish for the 1st goal b) blamed Sibbick for a slip before his recovery to catch Youann Both instances it was the player passing it to them who really caused the problem (McKirdy/Devlin respectively). Interestingly, independent podcasts called it correctly. Unlike multiple different individuals from the BBC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly, independent podcasts called it correctly. Unlike multiple different individuals from the BBC The BBC employ Pat Bonner, Willie Miller and Chick Young. I don’t think our state funded broadcaster are even trying to pretend that they provide an accurate representation of Scottish football. I can’t comment on the podcasts, but the guys on A View From the Terrace do a better job of giving an accurate and detailed analysis of teams all throughout the Scottish leagues in the limited time they have, whilst the ‘journalists’ employed by the BBC aim all their attention towards the OF and speak in generalities and cliches when asked about anyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 This probably goes here. If you're viewing Saturday's fixtures on the BBC website, to find the Scottish Cup you need to scroll past fixtures from: (English) Premier League FA Women's Super League (English) Championship (English) League One (English) League Two Women's International Friendly (New Zealand v USA!!) (English) National League (English) National League North (English) National League South Scottish League One Scottish League Two https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/scores-fixtures/2023-01-21 Don't worry, though, I'm sure it's just a case of cups happening less frequently so there's a glitch that prioritises leagues...oh... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/scores-fixtures/2023-01-28 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think this is bad you should see it when the FA Cup is just starting. In addition to the usual English dross you've to scroll through hundreds of games like Chipping Sodbury Lighthouse v Ottery St Mary & District Bus Driver's Welfare Social Club before getting to the Scottish Championship and the others. It's genuinely a complete insult. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Angelos Postecoglou gets called by his preferred name of Ange by every pundit and interviewer that I’ve ever heard. Michael Beale’s preferred name is Mick, but every pundit and interviewer I’ve ever heard since he came back to Rangers calls him Michael. I’m confused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
