In the studio with Macintyre, Billy Dodds and Tom English. Three of the biggest cheerleaders in the business, men that were almost born with red, white and blue pom-poms.
The benefit of spinning to someone like Macintyre is that he isn’t going to question what he has been told and will loyally parrot out the required message without any follow up questions.
For example, in the game you are talking about, at Tynecastle, the one that Brendan Rodgers was hauled in front of the disciplinary board for, I am told that the VAR that day got full marks for his decisions.
