I still listen and probably enjoy it more than most on here but it jumped the shark for me a few weeks ago when they had Iain Murray MP on spouting the usual shite about Hearts which went totally unchallenged by Stuart and Tam. When some listeners emailed to complain about this they come up with some half-baked idea that they had invited him on to talk about  Hearts. Utter pish, if you are going to spout nonsense on national radio prepare to be challenged on it. Where id the balance the BBC are so fond of.

You have a free rein to wander to wherever you want to go at Links Park.

We did until last season's second game when Montrose "segregated" the home and away fans, after some alleged minor unpleasant remarks from some Airdrie dafties at the earlier match.  It was a long and pleasant walk around the streets to reach the far end gate. Always enjoyed the new stand at Montrose so it was no burden.

No sure how anyone can still listen to this, it's the same shite every week. The fry up XI, Cosgrove telling some unsolicited story about when he met a famous person and he has the very annoying habit of finishing people's sentences for them.

I suppose the trouble is what would they replace it with? Liam McCleod hosting a panel of sportswomen discussing the weeks events in Scottish football?

The only time that Montrose normally have segregation is when Arbroath visit. Didn’t realise that they had it in place for Airdrie as well.

There was quite a lot of comment after the first game on P/B but it was still a surprise when they brought it in. All calm on the day!

You forgot to mention the nasal voiced, weedgie Celtic supporting Z-list celebrity guest.

Really not sure about the Sunday Supplement tbh.....

Have always loved getting back in the car after a game at Tannadice, win, lose or draw, suffering through the post match analysis until 5.30, and then having a good laugh listening to the Saturday Supplement of OTB, on the long (and usually dark and pishin’ o’ rain) road back to Glasgow.

Hope that when fans get back into grounds, that OTB will come back to it’s usual slot on a Saturday evening. 

Also.... More football, less other pish. Please!!!

Today’s excellent programme so far.

 

Who will play lovable rogue Gazza in his movie ? Tam “hilariously”!suggested Robin Williams if he was still here.

 

Tam implying that neutrals want Livi to lose today as we want an exciting “title race”

 

5 minutes discussing what title Myth Davidson will take in the HOL.

 

 

Edit to add: Now calling innocent Alex Salmond a loveable rogue. BBC in full effect today.

I’ll second this. The sooner the 5:30-7pm show is back on a Saturday night the better.
