Sportsound - again.

[tamig]

None of the so called studio pundits at the game today yet theyre still ripping into PF. Bottom line appears to be that Hibs dont seem to be a team that have a clue what theyre doing. What a bunch of ham shanks. Thats not what I witnessed today anyway. Wtf is this vendetta about?

[Glesgahibby]

I'm really sick to death of this mob.what the fck was that from stewart and Keith Jackson.
im actually shaking with rage,what a pair of €$¥?!!,.S.

[green day]

Didn't hear any interview with pat after game either. Its actually quite funny - they will criticise pat for "inability to change tactics" and then do exactly the same in a journalistic sense - I.e. they can't bring themselves to say ' we might have got it wrong '.

By the way, I wanted rid of pat - let's hope I got it wrong, and if this is a sustained revival, I will be quite happy to say I was wrong.

Don't expect BBC to say those words though.

Also, was I the only person who wondered if Butcher is in danger of disappearing up his own ********? All that "my players are quite clever off the park......crows in the desert" pish??

[coco22]

If I listen to them I get peed off. Radio gets switched after off the ball.

Listened in on the way home and I agree.No interviews from ER, interview with both Butcher and Mccinnes from same game and a plug for phone in where someone thinks Fenlon is not the man.

[Nuitdelune]

If I heard correctly, MS said that John Collins said to him I want to build a team round you so I want you to sign as new contract, when explaining what happened with the players and John Collins. Surely not.............

[Borderhibbie76]

It was unbelievable anti hibs stuff again. ..so much so even non hibs fans were texting in saying they found their comments disgusting!!

[col02]

Too many former Hearts associated pundits for there to be impartiality on the show sadly. I personally feel the way they go after people like Pat Fenlon and Danny Lennon in particular is shameful! When will the worm turn against Locke who probably still has as good a budget as the likes of St Mirren or Kilmarnock? Instead we are fed the "poor Hearts having to play kids" line week in week out. The Hearts *******s cheated in the past by paying money they did not have yet the amount of sympathy given to them is disgusting especially on Sportsound.

Hopefully pat wil carry on with his "inability to change tactics" and we win 2-0 every week, we'll take that. Ignore sportsound. They canny even put our game on live. Fk them.

[Elephant Stone]

It was very funny. Unbeaten in the five and they want to talk about how we've got the wrong manager.

[green day]

It is odd though? Surely they had Celtics magnificent defeat midweek, or the Jambo's "young guns" to jizz all over - so why pick on a team on a roll?

I don't buy any conspiracy stuff - they are just devoid of anything exciting to say!

[Hibercelona]

They were furious that we won today and their grotty cheating club lost.

Long may the fury continue.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Slowly it surely everything is getting dragged down to the lowest common demoninator. Can only imagine the bbc tow a fine line between appealing to the masses and impartiality dunno if the license fee will continue in its current form which may influence matters.

[hfc rd]

Don't know why anyone would bother listening to that garbage for a second, never mind a full coverage. The guys on the air there are a bunch of absolute idiots.

For years "as we all know"they spent money no one outside the OF could compete with.
For years"as we all know" the BBC pundits slated Hibs for not spending more money to compete.
Now we have a situation were this has caught up with Hearts"as we all know" and they are praised
for battling there way towards zero points!!!!
We also have a situation were Hibs are starting to turn a corner and have added some decent quality
to the squad and according to Stewart and Jackson that's not good enough.

[Aldo]

Don't listen to it anymore and haven't done so for a long time. I did commit the cardinal sin after the games and managed to hear The Wee Fat Ones report on the Yams game. He was about greeting. I was pissing masel laughing. They have been very negative bout Hibs for a long long time. What was the score today. Nuff said

Edit: to those that listen to it have they ever mentioned the missing monies and the robbing if charities by the yams?

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

i don't think that the content of this programme would change even if the presenters were told that no one was listening. At best, it is like listening to a table of pals falling in and falling out with each other while watching the football in the pub on a Sunday efty when every pint count as two cos of what you have had on a Saturday night.

[Miguel]

I actually thought Stewart made some valid points about how Hibs have grossly underperformed for far too long, given the assets we have as a club and with Edinburgh as a city.
If they had spoken about Pat Fenlon in relation to him being in the same position recently which Danny Lennon, the main target tonight, is now, then fair enough, but this was a reheat of comments made by Stewart on the telly a fortnight ago.
There seems to be a pattern emerging recently of missing interviews, not showing goals and general dismissive ness. Don't know what's going on.

[GreenOnions]

Just to be a bit contrary .................

I actually think the level of discussion on Sportsound has risen of late with the introduction of Michael Stewart and Kenny Shiels.

I certainly don't agree with everything they say but their opinions are considered and well presented. It's much more interesting than listening to that old bar-room slugger halfwit James Traynor who liked to pretend he was a working class intellectual still prepared to get down and dirty with the proles. His show was simply an embarassment for Scotland.

Let's face it - many on here have doubted Pat fenlon over the last twelve months so it's not really surprising that some on Radio Scotland do either.

However, these journalists are generally behind the curve on things like this compared to fans who watch every week. Those who watched the game today will have been encouraged but I don't think either MS or KJ attended the match.

FWIW - I do think there are signs that Pat might be starting to get a good team together and maybe Radio Scotland will acknowledge this when it is sustained.

The main problem for me is the double standard and the lack of balance.

[oregonhibby]

I thought it was a disgrace. They are supposed to report not create news. It would appear that the editorial policy at the BBC is to get managers the sack.

[wearethehibs]

Im on the same stuff as Mikey tonight lads!

I don't care for the guy but I tend to agree with a lot of his comments today. He is correct to say that Hibs have under performed for far too long and the in the 2 years Fenlon has been here there is still no obvious style or pattern of play developing other than hard graft despite the signing of some very good players. What I don't agree with is Stewart coming on progammes like Sportsound and being allowed to make some very insulting statements about Fenlon and even worse being allowed to slag off John Collins in the way that he did. I hope John Collins takes the BBC to task over this . I am sure John would have plenty to say about Stewart though being a gentleman it is unlikely he would air his views in public.

If they're going to dish it out then they should similarly give credit where it's due. Five undefeated and two very good performances on the trot.

It wouldn't surprise me if PF has done something to annoy them - PF seems quite a straight talker from previous interviews and doesn't take fools gladly - the way that they go on seems more personal than anything else.

I have been critical of the bbc for their blatant dislike of hibs for quite a while now but actually enjoyed the show tonight. Stewart and Shiels are just honest though I do feel that Kenny McIntyre stirs it a bit. I have lost count of the number of times this year he has done a show with Stewart and managed to get the John Collins stuff in. Don't think Stewart has said anything that bad. He states that we are a good club who should be doing better. True. He says that he does not see Pat as the man long term. A view shared by many Hibs fans and a view that has foundation at the moment. Don't know why the bbc are so anti hibs though. It does run right through their programmes and presenters from Cowan, Cosgrove, Gordon, Mcleod, Sutherland and McIntyre. Not to mention their collection of ex-yams. If it is to annoy us and create threads like this then it has succeeded.

They've been after Pat ever since he was appointed. According to Traynor and Co Hibs should have signed one of the unemployed (failed) members of the Largs Mafia instead of a 'foreigner' from Ireland. This went on for several weeks on BBC Scotland Radio - on one occasion they were actually touting Jimmy Calderwood for the job when he was in the studio listening to them. TBF to Tangoman he made it quite clear he didn't like them talking that way, and they shut up about it - for a while.

It really doesn't matter who BBC put on those programs - if they're invited in from the Scottish game they'll be very small fish from a rapidly-evaporating pond. Or insignificant nonentities, in other words.

That includes Stewart, who IMO would need a surgical operation (Me! Me! PLEASE let me do it! PLEEEEAAAASSSSE!) before he was capable of being impartial or fair to Hibs.
I do not like him even one tiny little bit. :fuming:

[Hibernia Na Eir]

Michael Stewart used the word "engendered".

That's probably enough to convince the BBC that he is worthy of a permanent position.

[MADE IN LEITH]

We have freedom of speech and freedom of choice in this country and I personally don't even give that pash of a program my ratings. Simply avoid the program at all costs and reduce stress levels by not listening to something that may well sound no better than a party political broadcast. In fact that's unfair, at least a party political broadcast has some sort of purpose and speaks a little sense.

I thought it was pretty interesting to hear him talking about the Collins era although i was oot wi the dug at that point :-).Completely disagreed with the presenter going back to it repeatedly. Wanted someone to phone up and get tore in.Stewart said Credit for recent run but Fenlon not the man to take Hibs where they should be.

This was during the phone in part of the programme at the back of 6 tbf.

What was faintly hilarious was Stewart and Jackson saying Hibs have no philosophy of how to play under Fenlon. The next caller on was a Sheep fan saying how their fans are buying into McInnes philosophy and they couldn't wait to agree - this will be the philosophy that was such an utter and abject failure at Bristol City ! Largs mafia right enough, even Scottish failures are apparently better than Fenlon. Sportsound, biased, unprofessional and utter drivel

Very good.....almost had me there.....

Would they have dared to do this if it was Celtc vs Newco?

I highly doubt it

From some reason they have dicided to fill the studio and reporter positions with ex jambos and that's there choice. They won't be getting me to add to there ratings

We need to keep working on our game and keep getting the results

Not sticking up for the BBC in any way, but these figures are compiled by the Press Association and are used by various media outlets.

Still no idea how they came up the 55% figure for this game though!

[ALF TUPPER]

I tuned into radio when I could from wedding, and to be fair Chick Young mentioned every time something like "...but this is a far better, energised Hibs side today "

:agree: Spot on .......
Chick Young was waxing lyrical about how good Hibs were. During the game nothing was said that I took exception to. Was all positive IIRC.
However .......

The pop at Hibs began, after the football,when the next programme started and they started talking about managers losing the dressing room.
Michael Stewart was then drawn into taking a pop at John Collins, meetings behind the managers back etc/..... After years of denying he was involved he finally admits he was culpable. The man is an :idiot:

[steakbake]

I think the 55% figure is about right. We saw a lot more of the ball in the second half but I thought in the first half we were containing them quite a bit. We looked more dangerous on the break.

Second half was more balanced and I reckon in the last 20 mins we had more of the ball.

[Glesgahibby]

Stewart commented"I had no problem with Collins for 5 months"
He then boasted that Collins wanted to build a team around him.
He then moaned that Collins took a dislike to him for not deciding on a new contract.
Stewart then asks Keith Jackson to confirm that none of the players liked Collins.
Remember this is the keith Jackson who told us Scott brown and Kevin Thomson
Were off to oldco for 2mill.
I am confused at what point did the players take a dislike to Collins?
Was it after 5 months,same as Stewart ?
And who gave Keith Jackson this info,I wonder :rolleyes:

[Treadstone]

Before the 2012 semi versus Aberdeen, Pat made a comment about how 'certain people in the media' wanted Hibs to lose. It was a general quote but in my opinion directed at 'Sportsound' and boy did it hit its target. They've never gave him any credit since and because he takes it on the chin they have mistaken this for a soft target. As many have said they wouldn't dream of saying this about an old firm manager.

I look forward to their breakdown of Golden Garys time wasting substitution with 3mins to play, sending on a player with 15mins experience to see out a 1-0 lead while more experienced players were left on the bench.

[clerriehibs]

I had an ear phone in for most of the game yesterday. Apart from reporting incidents, chico's comments were all about st mirren's performance. I know he's a st mirren fan (a blue nosed one) but he's not the only bbc pundit who tends to dwell on how good/bad the opposition are whoever Hibs are playing.

I didn't think the content of what they said was that bad. If that's their opinion then fair enough, that's what they are there to give.

They agreed that Hibs have played well recently and turned it round after the opening games but shared a view of many Hibs fans that PF is still not the manager to take us forward. However like some have said I wonder how likely they'll be to give Hibs/ PF credit if this is a long term improvement.

Stewart then gave an account of his view of events around the Collins era which was interesting yet unsurprising as we've all heard it before. Again it's fair enough for that to be shared in that forum.

What I absolutely didn't understand was the context of it. WHY talk about that? It was bizarre. It seemed to be in the guise of talking about managers losing the dressing room but instead of discussing that phenomenon in general they ended up going into great detail about John Collins. The timing of it was completely ridiculous.

Very poorly managed discussion.

You don't do that by sitting on the fence.....only bold statements will do that with a little bit of controversy. Lots of Hibs fans will disagree with him but for me just don't pay too much attention. If we do we will be endanger of becoming the new Paranoid FC which would be the worst outcome!!

I was at the 2007 cup final courtesy of one of his best mates. MS sent him a text about 35 mins before kick off slagging off JC, his team mates, the formation and the training all week. And we all know what we went on to do!! He is a self obsessed individual and I've had the mispleasure of being in his company a number of times and his arrogance and self love says it all for me. He likes listening to his own voice and will continue to do so....don't bite as we're giving him what he wants!!

Don't know why anyone would bother listening to that garbage for a second, never mind a full coverage. The guys on the air there are a bunch of absolute idiots.Correct, I find a bit odd that people will still listen tae that pish and then complain about what is on it when they already ken what'll be on it. Dinnae give them the time of day, who gives a **** what they think, bunch of ****in' tossers.

I agree.

But what annoys more is that this is a National Broadcaster - john o groats to gretna and all points between - and the massive issue here is that while WE know they may be talking ******, loads of people listen in and hear this stuff being spouted as fact - and even worse than the hibs stuff is the "hearts are so plucky" pish - with zero acknowledgement that it is their (and I include the fans) fault - and they deserve liquidation.

Some of us listened to roughie on central FM and it was great - but 99% of Scotland will listen to their 'impartial' pish.

And the licence payers are paying their wages. I don't listen to them often but never fail to be annoyed when I do. I've also started recording Sportscene and fast forwarding past the punditry.

Let them bash on and ignore it and dinnae give them the time of day or attention they are looking for.

Shinned it.

He certainly did. It did look spectacular, but it was a fluke.

This is the same Michael Stewart who couldn't get in the team for the League Cup Final, now saying JC wanted to build a team around him?

What next? We will be hearing about how Sir Alex missed his chance to do the same........... Self important sneak, nothing more.

Stewart the great underachiever.Jackson and his reprinting of Ibrox press releases"multimillionaire Craig Whyte".Who gives a s**t what either of them say.

[JimBHibees]

Stewart commented"I had no problem with Collins for 5 months"
He then boasted that Collins wanted to build a team around him.
He then moaned that Collins took a dislike to him for not deciding on a new contract.
Stewart then asks Keith Jackson to confirm that none of the players liked Collins.
Remember this is the keith Jackson who told us Scott brown and Kevin Thomson
Were off to oldco for 2mill.
I am confused at what point did the players take a dislike to Collins?
Was it after 5 months,same as Stewart ?
And who gave Keith Jackson this info,I wonder :rolleyes:

His constant reference to Keith Jackson as Jacko did indeed seem to indicate there was a relationship of some sort there.
