I don't think I've heard that from a Scottish football pundit or presenter before. Sort of thing you expect from an English-based show. And all she had to do today during the commentary game was score updates from the other games every 15 minutes or so...... God only knows what an arse she'd have made of trying to deal with Open All Mikes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentGuerin Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Anyone who refers to Partick Thistle as 'Partick' instead of 'Thistle' is outing themselves as a total wrongun. ICT are not 'Thistle'. Sorry, but that's just how it is. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Derek Johnstone (employ the idiom of P&B and let that sink in) was employed by our state broadcaster he was asked who might prevail in a contest including and extending to Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Partick Thistle. His answer .... "Thistle" This highland listener was briefly bemused before understanding that ignorant parochialism was being imposed upon the populace. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoose Rice Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Could they no have stuck Jane Lewis on the Euros on at the moment and gie us peace for a wee while? Thing is the worse she bawses up the more she seems to be promoted. Guaranteed she presents the BBC champions league highlights in a couple of years. Can just picture Mikey Stewart laughing his arse off every time shes on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit that my perspective didn't include the middle part of today's broadcast but I was determined to give her an even break and I was content that she avoided the nonsense like answering her own questions. Then came the excruciating sign off. This is on the BBC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willie adie Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Half time round up Ross county were drawing 0-0 only to correct herself later there were 2-0 up, is she only there to keep the BBC diversity compliance up? If they are looking to use a female broadcaster then Eilidh Barbour would be far more competent, Christ even Leanne Crichton would be, perhaps she has dirt on BBC Scotland management 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
