He was a breath of fresh airQuote:

The most informed commentator I've heard during a game in a long time
10 out 10, get him signed up for HibsTV!
I really liked him. Knew his stuff about everyone on the pitch.Quote:

Thought when he said about their winger 'who Hibs seem reluctant to mark' was hilarious as well. I was thinking the exact same thing!
That's where I watched it, very refreshing, he had obviously done his homework on the players but he forgot to mention the ugly sisters or discuss Hearts in the sort of depth that BBC Heartsound would normally do.[emoji23]

Very professional. Really added to the game, unlike what we otherwise have to put up with.

He was top class.
So knowledgeable. Couldn't believe when he was going on about Marshall's debut for Celtic and then talking about Rab Douglas and Motta.
I did. I think it was about 82 minutes. Random but welcome.Quote:

A guy from Dunbar, commenting about a guy from Dunbar scoring for hibs against a random Swiss team in Europe on a random Scandinavian streaming channel! Random!!!

He was good but cliff has him beaten, all ends up

In fact, don't go anywhere near the place mate, it would be a shame to see you corrupted.
Never going to happen, he doesn't seem to have, or demonstrate any obvious Hearts credentials and would probably require to undergo intense training in the art of cronyism just to get past the first interview with Potter, Preston & McLaughlan.Quote:

How did he end up in Dunbar!?! Doesn't sound like a native ...
He was pretty good I thought. Someone was taking turf off their studs near the start and him hitting out with “he’s gotta take the confetti out his cleats” had the bairn howling! 😂
Too true mate. Probably wouldn't understand how commentating on Motherwell v Killie he would have to mention that player X was in Celtic's youth team when he was 15 or that Rangers are playing in a friendly in New York at the weekend. Nae chance he would get past the Hearts mafia if they found out Hibs fans were impressed with his commentary.Quote:

I also feel that some times Cliff wants to make out he’s mates with the players
Youv'e just described what we nomally get on commentary though.Quote:
