As 80% of the footballing fans in Scotland support either Rangers or Celtic is it too much to ask that SKY employ a more neutral match summariser than Davie Provan?
I have never experienced a more biased co-commentator than Provan. Let’s face it, if you are brought up to support either of the old-firm it is difficult to become objective, as the inherent prejudices will come to the surface. I’ve no problem with that as it is only human.
But as SKY need to be seen to be impartial surely they should not have Provan as the summariser on an old firm game? It’s got to the stage where I now turn down the volume when watching an old-firm game so as to avoid the bias comments of Provan.
Maybe we can get Zuluska to present him with the bubbly :)

utter biased B/s Sammi offside, Stokes offside even though TV is inconclusive FFS

So wee McCann thinks our goal should have been disallowed for offside but their deceptive camera angle made an onside look offside for the goal we had disallowed.
I wonder if I should contact Provan and ask for my money back,I mean the money I paid to by a ticket for his testimonial?
The guy’s a fud amongst fuds!
Philbhoy - It's just the beginning! on
Disagree about big Fraser.
He’s done nothing the whole first half.

What I can’t understand is why the main commentator isn’t quietly telling Provan he’s getting it wrong about who is in goals for Celtic. Maybe he’s deliberately allowing him to make an ass of himself?
Another thing, how magic is it to watch Izzy again. Bloody marvelous

Great ball paddy but Stokes offside
Ten Men Won The League on
Started the 2nd half well. Keeping possession and not allowing Peterhead to build up a head of steam. Stokes puts the ball in the net but this time he is correctly ruled offside

Never seen Paddy playing this deep. He’s like a quarterback.
They should tire in the second half with any luck.
Just get out with no injuries Celtic please.

Neil HUN says our first goal was offside
Surprise surprise Ammi offside for the goal

Re: The biased Davie Provan
They may as well put Andy Walker to comment on a Gers game….oh wait
Superb ball from McCourt for the first.
Cha, Samaras playing well.
Peterhead clearly been told to assault our playes. Disappointing from McInally.
Fraser Forster a stick-on to be Provan’s MOTM.
Greetin’ huns will be calling for goal line cameras in a minute..

Truly astonishing punditry.
This mob get right in ma raspberry ripples.
Who broke the link
Who is the cheat today please?
so according to the half time “experts” our goal was offside and Peterheid should have had a penalty………beggars belief.
For me, Forster has been the stand out, no mean feat preventing a goal from the bench.
It’s my first time watching Sky and I have to say what a load of cobblers
Provan doesn’t even know who is in goals and a studio full of huns for a Celtic game…
God love you Celts who have to put up with this crap on a regular basis.
God Bless Celtic TV..
jimmci
having a major disagreement wi my hun mate on that very subject.
BBC,STV,and SKY only employ huns or Uncle Tims.
FACT,as they say…..
OK….off to watch 2nd half.
Laters….

Highlight of the game has been the Jungle drums.
Switched to the Sunderland game at half time. That youngster McLean is some prospect.
Glad i turned it by the sounds of things!
Big Forster s family must be panicking.. He told them he was popping out to shops and Sky have him at Peterhead.. It’s embarrassing..
Mchun says camera angle poor for second goal yet it is nearer to being in line for that goal than the first which he is sure is off-side!
Logic? consisitency?
The man’s a clown
Lets bury this mob of cloggers!

Also my first time watching Sky coverage. Although Provan can’t get the keeper name correct, he has been decent in his overall analysis.
Sky rerun of Peterhead ‘penalty claim’
What?
Maybe Zaluska on for the second half
Can everyone confirm what game they are watching?
Apparently in my one, Peterhead were denied a penalty claim in 40 seconds…
HH
My sides are bursting here they shouldve had a penalty lol lol lol.
