Could anybody recommend a Scottish radio station in the central belt that does not have an OF or Hearts bias? Obviously there will be local radio stations that help to promote their own local clubs, it would just be nice to listen to one that offers a different point of view. I just want something that has a bit more neutrality TBH.

A Hun that comes from Hawick sounds about right 😀

As if he wasn't painfully annoying as it is

Clyde super scoreboard isn’t bad. The chat is normally dominated with rangers and Celtic but it’s west of Scotland so you’d assume that.

However the host is a Motherwell fan and they do give time to the other clubs when there is a worthwhile topic to discuss.

If there’s nothing to discuss the show direction is taken from the callers who are predominantly rangers and Celtic fans.

Don't listen to much radio only when out and about in the car and Clyde SSB is my go to. Would still listen to Off the Ball if driving through to Easter Road on a Saturday but the moment that ends, the music or radio 4 comes on as I simply can't stand Gordon, English or any of the crew they have on.

I quite like Boogie.

I also don't find the Saturday show thingy on Forth One too bad for balance although the presenters can be quite irritating. At least they tend to be up front about their allegiances and have a go at each other rather than pile on one particular team.

Pretty much any show without Willie Miller is good enough for me.

Agree with that Boogie is fine and the Forth sports show is ok for the reasons you suggest even though Ewan Cameron is on it. :greengrin

I just get the feeling he isn't interested in what people are saying he just can't wait to butt in and hear his own voice

I find the host quite arrogant, and most of the callers come across absolutely mental, used to listen in work every day but since moving shifts ive stopped listening

The go radio show too, again mostly aimed towards the old firm but have regulars like Bartley etc on, not really any radio shows that doesn’t have the usual west coat bias, maybe try some of the Hibs podcasts?
