What's with the black and white t shirts and scarves they all seem to have? Edited August 18, 2023 by houston_bud 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 1 hour ago, The Master said: If they brought the commentary volume down to match the crowd, you’d barely hear it. The issue is that QTV don’t use pitchside mics. So the crowd noise comes from only a couple of mics positioned near the main cameras. I’d be absolutely fine with highlights with crowd noise + no commentary tbf but guessing I may be in the minority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, an understanding of the stadium set up and actually looking at the stands, he'd have known that the Rosenborg fans were in a corner of the Roseburn.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe anticipating them causing trouble, like Sevco fans smashing up Manchester all being Chelsea fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the camera started to pan out you could see it was the other end of the ground from where the away fans are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently a reasonable percentage of the Rosenberg fans stayed drinking in the Grassmarket, after discovering both that pints are only a fiver here and that the game was on telly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted August 19, 2023 Author Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) During the game on Thursday (maybe half time?) they mentioned the League Cup ties coming up this weekend. The commentator said that Kilmarnock vs Celtic was 'the pick of the bunch'. Absolute pish. I'd have it joint bottom, with the other all Premiership fixture, as least interesting tie of the weekend. Personally think Airdrie vs Ross County is the 'pick if the bunch', with Hearts vs Partick, Hibs vs Raith and Livingston vs Ayr all interesting looking ones too.

Cup holders away from home against a team that have started well and already beaten rangers. It’s clearly of interest. Yes, they could give the other fixtures more attention but don’t think this is a big deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a match that will be played at least three times in the league and a match that was played three times in the league last season. It's dull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key feature is it being at rugby park so I disagree that it’s a scenario we’ll see at least 3 times in the league. I’d fully agree with you at celtic park. Plus the cup element is clearly more interesting than a league fixture. A hint of Celtic going out the cup is of interest to any side with designs of winning the trophy. If there’s fixtures you’re more interested in then fair enough but it’s silly to suggest that objectively this isn’t a cup tie of interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fixture being repeated doesn't necessarily make it dull. Hopefully you'll take this as a learning experience. Let's be honest, it was a very boring cup draw this round. Killie v Celtic and St Mirren v Motherwell were probably the two that carried the most interest. 'Most' and 'interest' being used in their loosest possible senses. I didn't even bother my arse listening to the Hearts game today. Couldn't be fucked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 BBC do a shite job. The commentator recording from a studio so the crowd are muted. Just kills the vibe. Tinpot as f**k in this day and age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this watching Saints at Celtic on Saturday and really enjoyed it. Our internet tv commentary can be a bit brutal and detracts from enjoying the game at times. I think the option for no commentary should be available, and would improve a lot of matches on tv north and south of the border. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of English games now have 2 co-comms (for balance I assume) & there really isnt any need. There was a BBC game during the South Africa world cup that had only the commentator due to illness & that was pretty good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
