Yoda8 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hope Jum is still on airwaves as he's definitely got a face for the radio. Talk sport last Scottish night was a Monday night with Arthur Albiston!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Remember the time those fine upstanding posters No8 and Tedi took great delight in drunkenly verbally abusing the man as he jogged past a pub that they has infested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 You are not going to last in Scottish football as a national media personality, if you unduly upset either half of the Old Firm, because rightly or wrongly appealing to the Old Firm armchair fan is what drives the ratings. His mistake was to play to only one third of the gallery in potential listener terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His mistake was to play to only one third of the gallery in potential listener terms. I disagree. Some journalists/pundits have made a career out of antagonising Rangers/Celtic fans to increase the ratings. Hugh Keevins for example has listeners lining up to call into Superscoreboard and the ratings are probably at their highest when he's on the show. In Jim Spence's case, there's mostly apathy from Scottish football fans. Maybe he's leaving because there's been a gradual decline in listeners and he knows bosses are thinking of replacements such as Jim Delahunt?... Maybe he expected more backing from bosses when he made the comments about Rangers and wasn't happy?.... Maybe he was angry at the part his employers played in the Scottish independence campaign?....................................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using ratings as an excuse to justify their over promotion of the bigot brothers is as feeble as their coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
