Aim Here Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 1 minute ago, bennett said: Again, its obvious that Grant didn't believe Stewart's mythical sources excuse. No it isn't. The Daily Record's transcript has Grant saying stuff like: Quote Peter Grant: "If it didn't happen and you said it, it is a lie. Why come out and say it? Tom English: There's a difference between a lie and an error." Peter Grant: "No it's a lie is the same thing Tom. Michael has got my number which would have most sober, competent readers with a working command of the English language concluding that Grant was simply unclear on what a lie is. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(that means give us a short version of what happened) Stewart said Grifffiths had been criticised in dressing room after a Scotland game, according to his source. Grant said he was lying. Stewart conceded his source could have been mistaken. Grant refused to accept that the source's error could be just that and not a lie. In his mind, a repeated untruth was a lie, thus ignoring the general view that a lie is when someone says something knowing it is untrue.

Rodhull Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I think Stewart said he had two separate sources that said the same thing which makes it surprising that they'd both be wrong in the same way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you listen to the podcast properly, you will realise that Peter Grant doesn’t dispute that Michael Stewart had two separate sources for his info, what he disputes is the difference being making an error and telling a blatant lie. So in Peter Grant talk, your post is a lie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I am normally one of Sportsound’s defenders, and continue to listen to as many podcasts as I can, if I miss the live show. But last night’s programme had the look of utter nothingness from the start, and so it transpired. David Currie (master of being a big child presenting an adult programme), Kenny Miller (Naisy is brilliant for Scotland and, yes, I could still do a job for Scotland) and the aforesaid Steven “Naisy” Naismith (says absolutely nothing of any note whatsoever). A really insightful question in the first few minutes to Naismith from Currie asking him about Austin MacPhee. MacPhee is Naismith’s present manager, what the hell is he going to say if he values his position in the team? Blandness personified. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-MAN Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 The difference is that Stewart and English are both articulate, intelligent, and of fairly independent mind. Those things can very seldom be said of other contributors.English is as bad as the rest of them. The Tom English that appeared on Sportsound during Admin and Liquidation of Oldco is not the Tom English that we have now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Michael Stewart is nowhere as intelligent as he thinks he is but when set against the likes of Peter Grant I can perhaps understand why he might feel a slight intellectual boost. This particular erstwhile listener thinks he's almost as bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Bridge Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I won't consider Stewart intelligent until he stops saying "could of". He still runs rings around the rest of the doughnuts on Sportsound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often download the podcasts of the hour long midweek programmes , but I’ve reached the stage that if it’s David Currie presenting or John Hughes is one of the guests I probably won’t bother listening to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currie is infuriating. On the rare occasion he manages to strike up a decent conversation he always manages to grind it to a halt with a dire attempt at a joke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he's fallen into the Gerry McNee "saying stupid stuff just to get a reaction" camp. Have stopped listening to anything he's on now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
