The team's recent poor run has been mostly down to the unavailability of our first choice players. Link to comment
Crashnyploshnit Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Scotty, don’t get me wrong I agree we have lost important players but we were supposed to have a strong bench. I think we have now been found wanting that’s all. Link to comment
Scotty_Toronto Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Unfortunately, the bench has been effected also. We couldn't have foreseen having so many unavailable at once. Ferguson, McCrorie, and McGeouch all missing from the midfield at once is bad enough, but add Watkins, Hayes, Wright, McLellan, etc. and it would have taken a miracle for our results not to suffer. (We even introduced a 16 year old at Ibrox.) Link to comment
muttonhumper Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 It seems to have regressed this season in terms of stream quality. Maybe started last season. Definitely was better couple of years back. Fuck knows what they've done to it. Link to comment
thurso Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Iv only started watching it this season because of the ppv and Iv never had any problems with it. I think it’s actually pretty good compared to when I try and watch games on hesgoals which lags a lot on me Link to comment

The motion isn't smooth and its not overly pleasant to watch Anyone else get this? Last week at Ross County was fairly brutal. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Better off with IPTV. Streams have been flawless recently and costs fuck all other than the obvious year subscription. Link to comment

Fridge Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I’d assume it’s because normally it is only folk abroad or using VPN’s watching it and now it is everybody aa nobody can get to the games. Link to comment

Its hard to explain, but its similar to my nowtv issues I had when it looked the same as redtv Turns out it was because even with now boost, it was 25 and not 50hz on the youview box Switched to the ps5 and its perfectly smooth Any of your mates able to point you in the right direction of a decent internet provider?

starryfish Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 No sign of messrs McDermid or Shinie last night which was pleasing. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 That guy Andy Bargh is the Killie tv commentator. Has he left killie or just doing Dons when he's free? i'd never heard of him but sounds like a good signing based on the clips from thursday. Link to comment
Wee Alickie Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 He's freelance so I'm not sure what happens when Killie and the Dons are playing on the same day. Maybe he's with us now on a better deal or just wants work at a bigger club. Loved his enthusiasm picking up on the crowd atmosphere and saying things like " You can feel it's coming" just as Ramsay hit the corner for Andy's goal - magic timing. And " Did you ever imagine in your wildest dreams ...? " when we were all over them in the second half. I was at the match so wasn't aware they had been a change until I watched it back on RedTV. The pair of them were excellent, really backing the team and reacting like us fans. Tosh is an ex-Don and a fan anyway. Fifers can be fans too so that's not an issue and he's done well in commentary before. I agree that Bargh was a big step up in standard from McDiarmid whom I've never liked. However I did miss the post match interviews as I liked Shinie's couthy style, often asking the questions fans would want to ask. Not sure who is coordinating the whole RedTV match day experience but with Rob McLean and these guys the whole thing is so much more professional. It might be Mal Panton's doing as he does a lot of great work behind the scenes and with does insightful and entertaining interviews. Link to comment

I did wonder whether McDairmid and Shinie would be off sooner rather than later if we're really trying to put together a more professional package. They were just like two old blokes down the pub trying to commentate on the game sometimes, bit cringeworthy - although you could never fault their enthusiasm. It's good having a couple of guests for some insight before and after the game and at half time. Overall it's a pretty good offering I'd say. I used to like watching some of the U20 highlights a few years back too - when the likes of Scott Wright and the Ross's were on the verge of breaking through - hope they bring that back when the youngsters league restarts.

Clearly someone who is a bright prospect as a commentator. It just felt more professional. I understand he's doing Aberdeen games on a rota with one or two others this season. I think we might be getting Jamie Lyall, who does the Ross County games, as well? Time will tell. Link to comment
