Mark Connolly Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Cosgrove is talking about our potential new goalkeeper and wondering "if he will be the first Arab to play for the Arabs".

Quatermass Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Cosgrove spot on with Alan Burrows move to Aberdeen there. Massively overhyped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stylish Kid Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Cosgrove is in theory quite good on diversity issues, in that he makes food pronouncements. Then he lets himself down with things like this (see also the Ouzy See debacle last year) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quatermass Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 (edited) Can only think that Cosgrove, due to BBC regs, can’t promote his Muhammed Ali book turned film premiering at the GFF this weekend. He has some CV that’s for sure. Edited March 4, 2023 by Quatermass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree Joey, I thought the show was ace yesterday. Spencey is always good craic, especially when on with Cosgrove and we get the Dundee/Perth gang culture discussion going on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that to some extent the BBC are fortunate to have someone who was a senior executive at a rival channel, and a not-insignificant author devote a chunk of his weekend.... I guess he does genuinely enjoy doing it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dundee/Perth "gang culture" was a bunch of adolescents who liked to get dressed up in the same clothes as each other, a bit like the pink ladies in Grease. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he does genuinely enjoy doing it He probably doesn’t get to talk much Scottish football in his normal work business. Off the Ball likely as much a hobby for him as a job, although ironically will prevent him from seeing St Johnstone as much as he’d like.

The show will likely get a bigger audience than usual today. Despite far preferring Scottish football, the 5Live coverage on a Saturday is generally far more listenable from the afternoon. Off the Ball is good in bits but rotten in others, I don't tune in for music or special guests so for me 5Live is generally preferable. That said, will give it a go today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 They should've boycotted the show today. I'm surprised Cosgrove has gone in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 It would appear the only person on the show who knows the meaning of the word "gallus" is the guy from Derry who heard it for the first time today 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sophia Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Cosgrove said Derry five times in a row with no balance in the traditional fashion. I'm raging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
