It's unfortunately now the preferred style of broadcasting. Hyperbole and screaming pre-written soundbites for editing and using later. It's horrific stuff.

Liam MacLeod strikes me as the sort of person who spends a lot of time carefully writing his ad libs to drop in to commentary.

For some reason the BBC Scotland commentator Paul Mitchell follows me on Twitter and has liked a few of the rants I've had about MacLeod :lol:

Gordon Waddell had a right meltdown in his column today. Basically a Falkirk fan whining that it isn't easy enough for Falkirk to get into the top league.

Its embarrassing, apparently relegation is an "Armageddon" event and the only way to save Scottish football is an 18 team top flight, because apparently thats less of "self preservation" for full time teams than the current set up.

It's the Council's fault for not doing enough for them apart from using taxpayer's money to give them a fucking stadium, IMHO.

Did he mention their crowds by any chance?

Quite incredible that shite like this still gets published.

Quite incredible that the BBC have that as their leading headline tonight.

A disgrace.

What a cowardly article. Arse kissing sycophantic pish. 

Lazy as well.

There's more and more of this on various BBC Scotland platforms these days. 

Someone says something utterly inane and predictable, yet somehow they manage to construct a meaningless 'story' out of it.  

Insulting crap.

The only thing that will help Celtic in Europe is following the template they used to reach the UEFA Cup final in 2003, namely running up vast losses and carrying substantial debt. Martin O’Neil knows this, as he was instrumental in doing so.

Is he sooking up to Falkirk fans after making a c**t of himself about the Unsavoury incident at EEP?
