It did highlight that, as has been mentioned plenty here, it's been pretty much the same show for the past 20 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeen Cowden Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Forget about it until Cosgrove, the most sanctimonious twit broadcasting,is punted. Awful program. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marseille, having already qualified for the final, bribed Valienciennes to go easy before the final v Milan. Rangers were pumped fair and square. Although i did enjoy McSwegan's hard evidence that Moscow had been bribed because "you wouldnt put it past them". Apparently Mark Hateley claims he was approached before the Rangers-Marseille game and offered a bribe to lose the game. So here you have a player from another team being offered money to throw a match. All he needs to do is approach the football authorities and Marseille are oot and Rangers, rightly, through. The Marseille league bribe was blown up by their own players that couldn't accept what was going on and informed the ref and police at half time during the fixed league game. Hateley said nothing about his claim for about 20 years when he had the chance of a CL Final. I am calling Hateleys claim shite. Never happened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I like Scottish football and as a consequence i like Off the ball. Yeah there could be a better alternative but its not going to be thought up by someone shitposting on an internet forum about how much they hate Stuart Cosgrove. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason King Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I like Scottish Football and as a consequence I think Off the Ball is a rancid pile of sexist shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 That was a decent programme last night. Mainly showing how good OTB and OAE used to be, and how shite they are now. Scotland haven't qualified for the World Cup since OTB started airing. Take from that what you will. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'll take from it is that you're a bit unreliable on the footballing trivia front. Original OTB episode: 13/08/1994 Last Scotland WC qualification: 11/10/1997 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I disagree that its all we've got, look at the "A View From the Terrace" guys, they are doing great things for scottish football coverage with their podcast and tv series. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Still listen to it through habit, it’s ok but needs updated. Maybe add in the view from the terrace guys and let them have it eventually. I think one of the reasons it was so successful was because they at least tried to talk about teams other than the OF which was all you got before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
