Mickey Weir

[Alfred E Newman]

What a great job Mickey did on the match commentary today. It was great listening to someone who really knows the game.

[JoeT_WasTheBest]

Agreed I thought he was great. Love the wee man [emoji172]

[The Harp Awakes]

Yip, he talked total sense the entire game :not worth

[Albert Kidd 86’]

Yep, calm reasoned analysis without the bombastic verbiage of mr Lovell.

hope to hear him again soon.

He produced some magical stuff at the start of the season before he left. 👏

Spoke well today and I think Adam is starting to be a decent listen too.

I watched it on Aberdeen TV as Hibs TV co commentators recently have been 💩. Rob McLean on several occasions couldn't get the Hibs players right, at one point talking about Bursic in goals. Willie Miller was full of praise for Hibs victory & said before k.o. we need to be wary of Martin Boyle.

[Mark05]

Yes enjoyed listening to Mickey today, hopefully he will be back on soon.But if Adam the other commentator says absolutely one more time I'm going to chuck my tv in the garden :greengrin

[houstonhibbee]

Is it not Joelle that starts every comment with absolutely

[Victor]

Agree, Mickey was on top form today. Liked his analysis of Youan, when he stated he was within his rights to try the tricky stuff and be entertaining when in the final third and it didn’t matter if he lost the ball, as long as he didn’t give it away in dangerous areas.

[Roxyhibee]

Didn’t hear him but I think Mickey always spoke well and sensible about the game. Knows his stuff - and an absolute hero as well.!

[FilipinoHibs]

One of my heroes, gutted to when he left for Luton but of course he came back to help bring us glory.

[Centre Hawf]

Spoke well today and I think Adam is starting to be a decent listen too.

I like Adam on comms to be honest, I know most folk get a bit uppity about an English voice sometimes but I think he does a very decent job.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Is it not Joelle that starts every comment with absolutely

I find Joelle very insightful and listenable. If she quickly agrees she can then get on with her insight -same as others with “100%”

What about the Hibs dude that does the q&a who starts with “obviously” repeatedly without context.

[IberianHibernian]

I like Adam on comms to be honest, I know most folk get a bit uppity about an English voice sometimes but I think he does a very decent job.I agree he does a decent job as a commentator especially as he`s only used when Cliff or others are not available I suppose so probably has to step in at last minute . Not sure about pronunciation of surnames of referee or one of his assistants . As for English accents on match commentaries or interviews with players etc I think it`s normal for Hibernian fans all over the world watching Hibs TV International ( and fans who listen to commentaries and interviews nearer to Easter Road ) to wonder why a club run TV service employs so many people who seem to have little if any affinity to Hibs to represent the club . I think there are are only a couple of hundred Hibernian supporters who pay for legal live coverage of games on Hibs International or whatever it is called now against thousands who listen and / or watch who live nearer to the Holy Ground .

[IberianHibernian]

Enjoyed listening to Mickey yesterday . Loved watching him as a Hibernian player and great to hear him as a commentator as well .

I can’t help feel there is a bit of irony in any Hibs supporter that has moved abroad for work to be miffed at someone with a different accent on Hibs TV.

[hibeejeebies]

Pleased to see this thread as I also really enjoyed Mickey on co-commentary today.

[Broxburn Greens]

Agree with this, thought Mickey was excellent today, great analysis and well reasoned.

I’d forgotten he went to Luton for a brief period as well but I was only about 10 so I’ll let myself off 😂

[JimBHibees]

I think he is fine and is enthusiastic as well which helps. Not sure about the matey banter Millsy etc but think he is fine. Definitely helped when someone as insightful as Mickey Weir is on

[BroxburnHibee]

Thought Mickey was excellent yesterday. Hope to hear him a lot more in the future
