    Hi all...its been a while...just finished listening to yesterday's Sportsound podcast, finally actual football on the pitch was the main topic, predictions for season ahead etc. So with the appetite duly wheted I then went to club website for first time in months and I see Red TV has had a bit of a shake up...christ knows it needed it...Rob McLean he of the bbc is on board, I never knew he had north east connections...is he a Dons fan? Dangerous Dave still on commentary duties by the sound of it with Mucker Shinnie pitchside...thoughts?

    Belongs Invergordon and is a County fan.

    However he cut his teeth at Northsound and, I think, he did the comms on a few of the big European nights.

    He played for Braemar in the Aberdeen amateur league.

    They were a decent side but lost 1-0 repeatedly to Theologians who had an ace prolific scoring winger.

    Didn't Theos have a free scoring left back too. Unfortunately they were usually OGs. Signed from the mighty JohnnyGrant Allstars for an undisclosed fee.I witnessed his best ever OG from the halfway line in one memorable game too.

    I listened to a podcast with him a few weeks ago. He is a Ross County fan but because his career took him to Pittodrie so much and he got to know the ins and outs of the club he developed a soft spot for them.

    Anyone else using RedTV international through VPN tried logging in yet today? I’m just getting the live event showing up saying “Live audio in UK” which is a bit concerning. Going to be gutted if I miss this game

    Did you get it to work? Held off from signing up as yet as wasn’t sure if the international route would be blocked.

    Yes. When I tried installing vpn onto my present laptop it wasn’t working - just showed up “audio for uk”. I went back to an old laptop that I already had the vpn installed and after a few attempts it worked. After watching that dire performance I kinda wished it hadn’t!

    I’d say the coverage was a bit of an improvement on last season. I’m not sure they really maximised the use of the special guests or even rob McLean- there was a lot of interview clips played pre match and half time as usual. Maybe about 5-10 mins worth of shinnie and Anderson talking before the game and about the same at half time.
