Ed, view on steve nicol? The guy seems to spout an awful lot of rubbish. Most recently saying we should bring Suarez back 😂😂.
{Ed001's Note - he was a great player but is not exactly the brightest bulb in the box, to be polite. He makes two short planks seems clever.}

I think a lot of pundits say stuff to be controversial. That way they get talked about and it keeps them in the limelight. Adrian Durham is a prime example of that. Any press is good press.

OP, one of the outright worst pundits alive right now. Just like great players don't make great managers, great players don't make great pundits.

Ed001 Spot on.

Really talks rubbish does nicol but it is not for attention or sound bites he is just a really thick person
But great player in his time has to be said.

I don’t think he’s trying to be controversial. I just think what he did best involved using his feet, not his mouth. I was about to compare him to Phil Thompson, in that they were great players but embarrassing pundits, but then I remembered that Phil passionately loves the club so I can forgive him his outbursts and one eyed ness.

Didn’t Souness, Dalglish and Hansen used to make Nicol the butt of all their jokes because he was a bit thick?

Ed1, I think you are been very kind there haha.
{Ed001's Note - I am known for that...}

Thanks ed. I read some funny stories about nicol. He was with Hansen and weighed himself while holding 2 shopping bags and thought he had put on a stone! Hansen had to point out he was holding the bags 😂😂😂.
{Ed001's Note - he was the Jason McAteer of his day.}

McAteer once cheering that we got the home draw because our name came first for the FA Cup final.

Bit harsh on Jason McAteer there Ed.
