Garry McAllister...putting a shift in

[Iggy Pope]

Am I right in thinking McAllister was in the commentary box last night?
He's doing trackside at the Hawthorns early kick off (where WHU are getting skelped).
Not bad going.

:agree: It was mentioned during last night's commentary.

Needs the money, no doubt.

IMO he's not much better at commentating than he was at taking penalties. :rolleyes:

[CallumLaidlaw]

He was in the studio for Fletch and Sav this morning too saying how last night was a "disappointing result" :rolleyes:

[truehibernian]

He's actually quite good chat........he was hanging around ER before kick off for a game last season and chatted away about stuff. Very humble, talked about Hibs in a positive way have to add - certainly no airs and graces about him.

I think he does ok. Remember him remarking last season on young Sam having big Stanton boots to fill. Would rather listen to him enjoying his job, than some of those other ****ers like Craigan or Burley.

How many did he miss? I can only remember one. You'd think teams would've stopped him taking them if he was so bad eh?

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

He was a far better player that folk up here gave him credit for.

[Scouse Hibee]

Gary Mac was immense for Liverpool only wish we'd signed him years earlier.

Not from where I was sitting, it wasn't. :greengrin

[Pretty Boy]

Good player, excellent player in fact, and a decent pundit imo.

He seemed to be hounded by a lot of Scotland fans for some reason even before that penalty miss. Was he not jeered and booed in his last international? Ironically that probably meant Scotland missed having him during a golden end to his career.

[ekhibee]

very good player, below average analyst/commentator IMO. Not as bad as people like Provan, Derek Ferguson, etc, but that doesn't make him good.

[LaMotta]

The one at Wembley wasn't even a miss, it was a grossly unfair supernatural intervention from the evil spoon bender Uri Geller.

Could t give a flying one I'm afraid. Absolute numpty.

Example: after Stevensons strike: "wasn't a clean strike". 3 mins later (count them...) "never tire of seeing that quality" and yes I'm in a strop ;)

[Stax]

Quality footballer. Treatment from the Tartan army was f***** embarrasing.

You've quoted me, but I was referring to his recent geography more than the quality of his work.
Far be it from me to defend his commentary, but your example might not be a good one as he could be referring to the quality of the move and the final pass. Can't argue with that.

It wasn't a clean strike was it? I think we all know what he meant by that.

But you're in a wee strop. Shame. There, there now wee man.

He was and retired from international football after that particular game. Scots fans were a disgrace that night.
