Nothing better than hearing that first interview with an English no mark loanee. So how much are you aware of Scottish football and Hibernian? ”eh…not much to be honest. Obviously Celtic and rangers.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Bridge Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 1 hour ago, Lyle Lanley said: We lost 5-1 yesterday to Servette, so it seems the training camp was a waste of time. Anyone see Monty’s interview, only expecting to get 1 or 2 players in instead of the 4 he wanted. We are either skint or waiting for the Foley money to come in. Going to be a long hard 2nd half of the season if we have the same squad and the thought of watching that defence again doesn’t appeal to me. Aye, I won't be back this season if no centre-backs are signed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that slight glimmer of hope that they wont be a fucking huddy evaporates within 10 minutes of action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this was the current managers decision or something that was planned by Lee Johnson perhaps that the club couldn’t get out of (or didn’t want to?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only slightly related to my question and your answer but I saw Derek McInnes talking about Montgomery (as he was due to) being mic’d up for the derby and McInnes said he had been asked before about having cameras in the dressing room etc and simply said it wasn’t for him and he wouldn’t do it. I remember at the time wondering if Montgomery had agreed or simply just been told he was doing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, Montgomery was into all that fly on the wall shite at the CCMs. He properly agreed to it, probably stick it on his CV or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 You all think it was a jolly to a luxurious resort but what if Nick Montgomery has actually been possessed by the spirit of Jock Wallace- "Get up thae sand dunes and gie me 110% ya bunch of bone idle shagbags!!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch Australian sports, not just the fitba, you'll see that stuff all the time, not as an exception. Rugby league has cameras in the dressing room, and the A-League used to (maybe still does) have interviews with coaches during the game from time to time (as you noted). I think their other sports did that too (I lived there ages and ages ago). He was over there for ages, so probably isn't that arsed about it. I don't know if Amercian sports do the same, but I'll assume they do because they're shite. I think it's asking for trouble. A coach can't win in that scenario, and I don't see what is in it for anyone to be able to see the changing room. It should be a place where players and coaches can be open and honest without worrying about the (often mad) perceptions of non-expert onlookers. tl;dr Montgomery is a weirdo and Hibs will certainly be relegated.

Darvel beat Aberdeen last year in probably the biggest ever Scottish upset and it was slightly overshadowed by the pre-match talk from the manager which was cringeworthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinions on the team talk are subjective, but he'd have looked daft if they'd lost 6-0. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
