I haven’t seen it for over 10 years and it was total s’hite then.
Ah thought it was fkn brill the first couple o' years ... nae bad the followin couple o' years ... a bit cringeworthy the followin year or two ... efter that? fυck knows, Ah deemed it nae worth findin oot .... didna realise it had run so long ... Ah'm genuinely amazed! Did it get better? ... or are folk so hooked on ****e they refuse tae kick the licence fee an spend half the savins on netflix?
I've still got the radio series on tape somewhere and that was great. When Tony Roper left it was game over.
The Radio Scotland original was broadcast as we were on our way to Lice Park, Dundee, for the opening game of the 86-87 season, and it was a very funny one-off, spoofing William McIlvanney’s then recent Only A Game. Its putrifying carcass was flogged mercilessly as New Firm (2012) inbred thickos found it hilarious by the way.
Add it to your list sonofrgmsdad.
Edit: Happy New Year Comrade Max. No saviour from on high deliver, no trust have we in prince or peer.
It was never as funny as the Scotch and Wry sketch about the original Rangers
