NorthBank Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Kenny McIntyre sounds like one of these angry guys in the pub wanting to fight someone. Eilidh Barbour would be my choice. Not only is she professional but it would piss off Cowan and all the other misogynists. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alert Mongoose Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Mariella Frostrup would be my choice. It would be only the second time I've had a vigorous w**k while listening to Sportsound. The last was back in 2012. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tells the listener little about the game that you don't already know. His playing career was in an era now so long ago that he has nothing to offer in terms of technical expertise, and he was soon emptied out of being a coach (about thirty years ago). His technical knowledge doesn't extend beyond stuff we know ourselves, like that the defender was caught on the wrong side, or the attacker held the ball too long so his team-mate was caught offside. There's nothing he has to offer that illuminates, and certainly nothing befitting the status he seems to have. His views on the game are a mile out of date, and even the things he says about 'mentality' etc etc are based on his experiences decades ago. He really has nothing to offer in terms of actual useful expertise. Add in that he doesn't do basic research, knows very little about the teams he's watching, has no enthusiasm for the game, and is an inarticulate mess, and we have a fucking weird choice for a pundit. He's really fucking dreadful. "I only regret that I have but one greenie to give to this post." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably one of my favourites on OAM. Chris Iwelumo is similar - albeit considerably smarter than Ferguson. I suppose Ally McCoist is the best example of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Peter Grant genuinely has no business in football. The guy is an atrocious manager and has zero idea about the game. He's just claimed that Craig Gordon had very little to do last night. I must have imagined the numerous saves he made and the numerous times he was asked to play the ball. Grant also claimed that the result and performance was 'nothing to do' with the manager. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember him doing the majority of they things tbh. I couldn't name a club for definite he doesn't like either, kinds of calls it like it is in a backwards manor. It doesn't mean he's xenophobic even if he did call out a Hearts player for diving against Scotland, (on national radio, to a Scottish audience). It's a bit like saying the whole of the ROI are racist towards the French after the Henry handball or the English to Portugal because of Ronaldo against them. Where do you draw the line? Anyway, all the best to RG. I can see this won't even fractionally turn into any debate/discussion. Just the whole world out to get Lithuania and Hearts at the time.

I’ve said on this thread before that if Peter grant appeared on sportsound more frequently he would hands down be the worst contributor on there.

Him insinuating that he was only fired by us because he failed to win a single league game in 12 attempts is a bit disingenuous too. It's not that we failed to win, it's that we never looked like winning. We were shipping goals and hardly scoring any. We were disgracefully bad and sprinting towards automatic relegation. Crowds were way down. He nuked the club and did so much damage in such a short time, although he did us give comical lines about 'plates of confidence'. 4 minutes ago, VincentGuerin said: It's not just that he talks shite.

The conversation about the game last night was sportsound at its worst and he was the ringleader. Jim Duffy can be ok but even he got sucked into the ‘in my day…’ shite. Really boring; not insightful in the slightest and just plain I’ll informed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Killie fans were ahead of the curve in disliking Peter Grant, he's been a hit of a hate figure amongst anyone aged about 35+ in our support on account of some sort of incident in a game at Rugby Park in 1994 (I think). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugbypark Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Wright and Duffy getting away with bland, dismissive comments regarding human rights in Saudi. All about choice, apparently. I bet the people murdered for their sexuality or beliefs wish they had a choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
