Commons is absolutely entitled to his opinion. However he should have made enough money from the game and us in particular, that he shouldn’t have to chase money, unlike some players from previous eras.
In terms of his punditry he comes across as pretty nervous and almost tongue tied.
Like many he never really says anything fresh or insightful, so he will probably have a gig for life :lol:
It’s not about money
ITs about him. Absolutely loves himself and being on TV must be right up his street.
I will always have lots of sympathy for him & his Mrs. in regards to his losing a child (horrific for them) but professionaly speaking he looks nervous on TV & needs to learn have something to say that means something and respect the supporters & club who gave you the best years of your career- us.

TV does not look a good fit for him.

That clown Savage is a role model for all of these wannabes. If he can make a media career, along with many others that people moan about here in the various Scottish based-circuit, it's quite clear that being articulate and informed are not required characteristics.

The biggest problem for me with Commons as a pundit and analyst is not really anything to do with his views on Celtic.

It's more the fact that he is just not very good at it. Often trips over his words, can't get the right words out and is prone to pretty embarrassing pauses. He's also as pliable a pundit as you'll see. If Boyd asserts an opinion in analysis of something, Commons will go along with it, whether it is valid or not.

The worst one was our 0-2 win at Ibrox earlier this season when Lovenkrands was basically crying in the studio telling us how good Sevco were. Commons just sat there agreeing with the majority of it, despite what we had all watched with our own eyes.

Then to basically come up with no alternatives for Scotland manager when you are on a show discussing the SFA's failure to appoint their top target? A lot of thought and preparation must have gone into that beforehand eh?

Clearly people can get better at a particular job, but Commons has made as inauspicious a start as any, include Barry 8.

However incredible it may seem the problem for Commons is that Boyd is actually made to sound coherent at times in comparison. :lol: :boik:

As I say, people can grow into a job, but Commons has been chronic to listen to.

Off work with the lurgy means I’ve had access to telly & radio. BBC Scotland radio and TV throughout the day have referred to tonight’s game as a “Scottish Cup 5th Round Tie”. Apart from Reporting Scotland right now, that is: they didn’t refer to it at all. Meanwhile on Scotland Today, the huns one-time ”official broadcast partner” news programme devoted thd bulk of it’s sports presentation to promoting McLeish for the Scotland job and giving that wafffling boy scout Murty airtime to gibber about McLeish for Scotland and the hostile reception McInnes can expect tomorrow. Chris Davies and Alan Archiblad shared 30 squeezed seconds at the end...

Celtic placed at 203 in the world for players wages.
EDIT: Just noticed this is from November 2017.

Celtic and Rangers weekly wages revealed as Hoops pay stars more than DOUBLE city rivals
The Parkhead side's financial stronghold over the domestic game is laid bare in a new study of Scotland's top flight clubs.
