Episode 8
The team discusses the Premiership title race - the fact we’ve actually got one and whether it’s exciting or actually a bit boring - and chats about whether fans should get angry about football.
The best thing since the year they invented the vacuum cleaner! It is episode 8 of this season’s A View from the Terrace and this week the boys are going off like a rocket. In This is the News, the team discusses the Premiership title race - the fact we’ve actually got one and whether it’s exciting or actually a bit boring. They also chat about to what degree fans should get angry about football. What’s the point of shouting at a tannoy announcer? Is booing sound?
The boys then slather on the chippy sauce in Secret Sauce, as they focus on some of Scottish football’s more unheralded players. From Aberdeen stalwart - and passed over Scot - Andrew Considine to Morton’s Bob McHugh, young St Johnstone midfielder Ali McCann and Elgin’s long-serving Brian Cameron, they finally get the credit they deserve.
It’s the return of Robert Borthwick and his Social Media Hot Pocket next, where he covers Steve Lawson’s dramatic tweets, the madness of the Dundee derby, the fetishisation of Peaky Blinders, Aberdeen (and London) Monopoly as well as a terrifying Halloween costume. Plus a special appearance from one half of Duncan and Duncan and the introduction of a new phrase to the footballing lexicon - ‘hat-trick boy’.
It’s the Time Capsule after that and the boys delve into one of the most famous Scottish Cup finals of all time. It’s Hibs winning the 2016 trophy and they’ve got a special guest to argue the case.
In Fork in the Road, the team looks at Livingston and where they’re going in the Premiership, and can Dundee pose a proper challenge to their city rivals or are they doomed to be an also-ran? Joel learns the difference between metaphors and cutlery.
Last but not least in the studio, it’s Bank or Bust where Shaughan tries to keep ahead of the pack once more in the race for the Eamonn Brophy Lone Wolf Trophy.
In Last Minute Winner, Gavin Prentice performs his Albion Rovers anthem Rovers Around My Neck.
Away from the studio, Duncan and Duncan are on the road again; this time Duncan is trying his hand at media duties at Hamilton. In Away Days, a group of Raith fans made the long, long, long sojourn to Peterhead.
