Swello Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 8 hours ago, StellarHibee said: Only top 6 game out of the 4 today and we were shoved to the end. They must be really agitated about Hibs winning a game on such an occasion. I think yesterday, the relegation battle was more interesting than the battle for europe - and the 3 bottom 6 games kind of came as a package - so it wasn't that surprising. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Proactive as ever, the Sportscene graphics team noticed that there were two Kellys in Livingston’s starting lineup. To avoid confusion, they labelled them as S. Kelly and S. Kelly. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see footage of it. This was the touch I was on about (thanks to well fan for life for posting in the Motherwell thread). OK, it didn’t lead to anything so I can see why I didn't make the highlights package but surely it merited inclusion in the piece on Van Veen afterwards? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJFCtheTeamForMe Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Michael Stewart claiming Ayna was getting back on the Mulgrew red is absolute nonsense. He was about 20 yards away! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stylish Kid Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Whooft. Don't usually watch highlights on sportscene but that was dire. Ok I'm fizzing about the red card still but..... Jeezo I mean all commentary was of the Andy Walker school of "its Rangers and Celtic, the rest are incidental". Whoever was on match comms could barely contain his glee and was noticeably hoarse by the "oh Celtic have won the title" celebrations. Don't get me wrong, Celtic have been streets ahead of the rest generally but the dismissive or patronising punditry.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both had squad numbers that were shown in the line ups and obviously differentiated them but during the match updates they called them A Player i and A Player ii instead of the listed eg A Player 3 and A Player 16 so you still didn't have a clue which one they were referring to. It really does beggar belief even for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only similar one I can remember in recent ish years is Elgin had two David Craigs. One was known in the reports as David A Craig IIRC.

One was known in the reports as David A Craig IIRC. I've seen a few ways two players with the same name have been identified. I just cannot get my head round how anyone with an ounce of common sense let alone intelligence saw this as an acceptable solution. It was there the whole season too. That nobody in a position higher than the pleb that set it up saw it and thought, whoa, what's this? and got it changed is even worse. I don't know if Montrose tried to do anything about it or if they just enjoyed the giggles the confusion caused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 In a rare moment for them of genuinely inventive wit, England supporters had a 'Two Gary Stevens/There's only two Gary Stevens' chant back in the 80s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 We had Keaghan Jacobs and his triplet younger bros playing in a game once, Kyle, Devon & Sheldon, that would've been a hoot for the bbc match reporter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Is there any special reason why Sportscene isn't on the iPlayer like it is any other week? If it's anything to do with the Eurovision song contest, I'm off to Pacific Key with a hammer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Dundee United about to take a penalty, they're 1-0 down. "Coming into this game there was a point between these teams.. BUT NOT NOW ITS 1-1!!" So, there still was a point between them at this point? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
