The BBC thing is a much less grave offence. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their journalists time would be better spent looking for real stories that are of interest not copying garbage from garbage sources. If you are happy with that quality, then good luck to you. Nearly all the stories in the newspapers, including the broadsheets, in recent weeks have been lifted straight from the Sportsound podcasts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 9, 2020 Author Share Posted August 9, 2020 To be fair, probably the two best journalists in Scottish football (At least for transfer scoops) are Scott Burns & Robert Thomson and they work for possibly the two worst newspapers in circulation in the Express & Scottish Sun respectively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Scott Burns gets good stories but is an atrocious writer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Don't know if it was a slip of the tongue or he just doesn't have a very good memory bit John Hartson going on about Scott Bain being replaced and he hadn't done anything last week after keeping a clean sheet last week against Hamilton... I take it Hamiltons goal doesn't count. He was at the game last week too... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hartson is, even by comparison to the many awful ex-OF players we see as pundits, a moron. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does make the likes of Boyd & McFadden in comparison seem quite smart guys! "Celtic should hold out for top Dolla' for Edouard" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 English League One side Hull City are training in Edinburgh - despite Hearts being ordered to stop. This story being run on BBC Scotland website. The reporter appears incredulous that Hearts are not allowed to train in Edinburgh whereas Hull City are. It’s because Hearts are under the jurisdiction of the SPFL and Hull City aren’t. Another point is around both clubs arranging to train at the same facility. How does that actually work? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why would you risk it? All the way up from Hull to train beside another team that you’re not allowed to have any contact whatsoever with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I dunno why Hull are in Edinburgh. I was just speculatively answering your question about how they might manage two teams at one training facility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
