The coverage of games was actually decent, although that still doesn't excuse them for not doing an Open All Mics when the Premiership games aren't on. Lazy p***ks.

Sadly when the Premiership is back all the useless, boring shite guys will be too, although the chat before 15.00 (i.e. Sevco/Celtic FM) will be just as tedious and moronic (did you know that Celtic/Sevco managers have pressure on them because they're expected to win every game?!).

They actually had a guy on from a Celtic podcast today. Absolute trash radio.
Who added the square root of f**k all to the discussion about his own club. Last weekend was a *** love in on Saturday with some brain donor citing Jimmy Bell as an example the sort of "rainjurs men" that Michael "Mick" Beale should recruit to chaperone him through his traumatic six months as Rangers * manager. The day after this tax funded abomination aired Richard Gordon hosted the programme and a dignified, thoughtful and joyful tribute to Doddie Weir was broadcast. The difference in tone, intelligence, insight and decency was light and day. Time to pull the plug.

Does anyone care what Archie Macpherson thinks anymore?

I've said it before but Archie MacPherson is, was, and always will be an arsehole. The way folk make him out as some sort of doyen of Scottish football is embarrassing.

Let's not pretend that it wasn't overwhelmingly Celtic/Sevco orientated when Richard Gordon was the anchor.

It was always OF dominated, yes, but there's definitely been a large reduction in coverage of other clubs and even things like going round the grounds on OAM in the "Kenny mac" era. Instead it's now ranty tabloid arguments about the OF's weekly humiliations in Europe, the OF's boards, the Rangers manager, and VAR, which all feel like they have been going on and on for months, regardless of what is happening at Scottish football grounds on a Saturday. One of the worst things about it is teh general tone which McIntyre brings - he sounds constantly agitated and desparate to talk about "what's going on at Ibricks".

Completely made-up stat but to me it feels like it's gone from about 60% pandering OF drivel to over 90%.

It’s garbage. Whether they play or not it’s OF chat. Infuriating. I am irrational to the point that I shout at the radio.

Archie is living proof that in the media all you need to do is hang around long enough and you become considered (by choobs) some kind of doyen.

He has long been considered and openly-derided as a complete buffoon, who wasn't even a good commentator. His commentary career consisted of decades of making weird noises, misidentifying players, working out what was going on in the game long after the viewers, and just being a general shambles. His stint on Scotsport showcased the fact that outwith the Old Firm he knows absolutely nothing whatsoever about Scottish football, despite being paid to cover it for literally decades.

He is a Keevins-level non-entity, whose input is valued only by the even more clueless. He's stolen a living from Scottish fitba, and it's absolutely depressing to see them now able to push him as some kind of wise old man figure.

He's utterly dreadful and always has been. He should be listened to by nobody and his views should be given precisely zero prominence.

He also looks like my Grandad, which is probably reason enough to hate him alone.
