There was a story a couple of weeks ago about how the system kept focusing on a bald linesman at Inverness.

It was difficult to see any of the goals. The camera would occasionally wildly zoom in on the other side of the stadium to where the action was! You could only hear every other word of the commentary.

We didn't really get into the game, the ball spending more time out of play or up in the air than anywhere else. We didn't really create much, and were lucky their over zealous defending gave us the penalties. Nice finish from Kane though. Hendry looked ok when he came on. Davidson played ok. May & Melamed weren't too bad. It was really a game where each team just kicked it wildly to one another or out of play for most of the game against driving rain and wind. In other words, a classic cup game against lower league opposition

"Driving rain and wind"?  That's a pleasant Autumn day in Peterhead.

I missed the last 2 goals, genuinely thought it was 1-2 when they got a goal back because the commentary and camera was so useless. 
 

only realised Kane had scored when I checked bet365

Anyone that didn’t pay, don’t waste 90 mins of your life tomorrow. 
 

Could be worse. We could have accidentally bought a Peterhead season ticket like the Saints fan on Twitter!

Dear God that coverage was crap. Regret paying a tenner for it now as I could barely make out any of the match. I know Peterhead don't have a huge budget but surely it wouldn't kill them to check that their sound is working and make sure the camera's pointing at the ball. I feel very sorry for their fans if that's what they're having to put up with all season. I couldn't watch that every week.

Very difficult to comment much on the match but I'm assuming Melamed is still a bit behind on his fitness as he seemed a bit off the pace and it looked like May was the one doing most of the running up front. Liam Craig seemed to be having a decent game. MOH looked lively without a lot of end product. Beyond that ... who knows, really? All in all a good League Cup group stage performance this season, especially in comparison to our previous attempt.

Must be the worst PPV experience so far. Sound was terrible, can they not do the simple thing and check the mic before the game. Reminds me of a comedian called Norman Collier who did his act pretending the mic was faulty and it was funny. Probably only cost about 50p to get in to the theatre then. £10 for missing really all the main action is a bit poor. Agree with above as I didn't know what I had bought but a quick check on digital banking showed only £10 spent. Clubs must do better with this. Anyway on to the next PPV as most have been ok. Main thing is we won.
