He's a first-class wind-up merchant. It's all he's got for that role. Ignore him. He'd just adore a reaction from Hibs supporters emailing the BBC etc etc.

Don't give the tube the satisfaction.

Spot on. He knows exactly what reaction he'll get and he plays up to it.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Must have been odd when Radio Scotland advertised for a fat, opinionated, jambo, failed manager pundit, and got two outstanding candidates in Preston and John Robertson. I don't mind either tbh as Preston in particular only has one string to his bow and that is the Hibs wind-ups. Find it amusing though, that the programme plays up pundit allegiances to Hearts and Aberdeen etc but always maintains that there are no obvious Rangers/Celtic commentators.

The real culprits are the Sportsound producers etc that allow this waste of oxygen on the radio in the first place. It's actually a bit cringe inducing listening to a good few of the reporters and pundits on Radio Scotland, the standard of broadcast journalism in Scotland is abysmal imo.

I'm going to go fly in the face of convention here. I actually quite like Preston. Yes, he's a Yam, and he's there to wind us up, but so what? Isn't that what local rivalry is about? I'd rather have a snide, infantile House Yambolino to hate/ridicule, than some bland pundit or standard OF bore.

When you look at the 'respect' OF pundits fall over themselves to give each other, it's good that we're so free from sectarianism, and don't have responsibility for promoting our healthy rivalry as some sanitised brand, so can actually get ripped into each other without some pathetic pseudo-political agenda ******ing in the background.

Besides, Yams being Yams, just give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves. Preston's bitter rantings, Foulkes's drunken slaverings and the bile of Sickbag merely serve the purpose of confirming our innate superiourity over those ridiculous fools. I'd hate to see them go, although Mr Romanov has decreed it must be so in Feb, so who am I too argue?

Relaxxx... grab that second cup of Earl Grey and join Bobby on his Zen trip...

When ribbed about the dons scoring he said it was a transition season and that they would just have to do with winning the league cup which chick then laughed at and said they wouldnt get past st mirren.Transition eh,3rd last season 5th so far this season.Transition from experienced players to young lads who will burn out and fade away.Preston usually bats his corner well but hes floundering when trying to defend the indefensible.

I anyone does want to complain? Do it via their national site. We don't pay our license fee to BBC Glasgow!

I'd hate to see them go, although Mr Romanov has decreed it must be so in Feb, so who am I too argue?

Is this when he has decided to pay himself back all monies owed from himself?

I'm with you there, a wee splash of milk in the EG for me please - yes, he annoys me and gets me telling the radio to STFU, but ach well, its hardly war crimes he's committing, and his childish taunting more often than not comes back to slap him in the face (a la yesterday!). I personally like having the pet jambos you love to hate! Not much more than football banter, which he sees through heavily maroon tinted specs, and I see through green ones IMO.

Its sad to say I was getting more and more annoyed with the clown and his belly aching jokes but wee Chicko wasnt taking his guff, my favourite bit was:

Preston "1902 blah blah the Boer War was still going on blah blah blah"
Chick "the Boer War? More like the bore war with you Preston. You've been boring since 1902!"

Classic from the wee bluenose, goan urself Chicko
