RAGING Hamilton Academical have sacked a member of their commentary team for telling fans he went for a half-time JOBBY.
Bobby Bulloch had been co-commentating on last night’s 2-1 home defeat to Ross County alongside Tony Haggerty.
Hamilton have quickly moved to axe the pundit
And he set social media alight after revealing a little bit too much information about his trip to the loo – live on the club’s pay-per-view TV channel.
Bulloch missed the early stages of the second-half but soon apologised to viewers for failing to turn his microphone back on, explaining he had gone for “a wee jobby” – Scottish slang for a number two.
He didn’t stop there, further revealing he had to “squeeze quite a bit.”
The full commentary can be heard in the video above.
However, Accies chiefs failed to see the funny side as they confirmed last night that the pundit had been axed with immediate effect.
In a statement, they said: “A contractor used by the club on summarising / co-commentary duties overstepped the mark this evening with a very poor attempt at humour.
“The club didn’t find this funny and the person will not be used again. Our apologies for this.”
FULL TRANSCRIPT
BB: “So sorry about the…I hadn’t pressed the button, I went away for a jobby at half-time, excuse my term of language.
“I’ve not pressed the wee button when I came back. So apologies to anybody who hasn’t heard me this second half.”
TH: “Are you speaking in rhyming vernacular there?”
TH: “Apologies if you deem that bad language viewers…”
BB: “Yeah, sorry, it was just a wee bit of poop and I was a wee bit late back over because I had to squeeze quite a bit…
“Sorry, I’ll just change the subject and get back to the match but I forgot to press my wee button, so I’m delighted to be back.”
It capped off a dire evening for the co-host, who was late for the game after turning up at IBROX by accident.
Accies TV usually run their commentary operations for away games through the QTV studio in Govan.
But Hamilton were hosting Ross County at home at the Fountain of Youth Stadium.
It’s believed blundering Bulloch thought the Scottish Premiership fixture was nearly 200 miles north in Dingwall.
That forced Hamilton media man Marcus Nash to fill in for the first 10 minutes of the match before Bulloch eventually arrived.
