| 1. Author: BlackLight Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 00:09 I was somewhat surprised that the Pars got a mention in the closing credits of Have I Got News For You tonight and even more surprised that there wasn`t really a veiled insult attached. Reply |

| 3. Author: Tad Allagash Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 08:38 It’s just before the closing credits if anyone is looking for this on the Iplayer. The wee team also get a mention. Reply |
| 4. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 08:55 Just watched it - its a cheap joke that makes very little sense since we don’t play for another week 🙄 Reply |
| 5. Author: tentonhammers Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 09:08 "In Scotland as Raith Rovers` big game against Dunfermline is threatened by bad weather, fans wait for a pitch inspection." Followed by a photo of a completely random flooded pitch in a park. Reply |
| 6. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 09:28 It`s always raining in Scotland. Didn`t you know that? These photo jokes are sometimes quite inventive and funny but that one seems like a bit of a cliche. Or is that because I`m a `chippy` Scot? Post Edited (Sat 31 Oct 09:28) Reply |
| 7. Author: red-star-par Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 09:34 I`m actually shocked that Have I Got News For You is still on. The only people I know that have admitted to watching it are complete kn0bs, the sort of folk that think they are highbrow intellectuals and that Stephen Fry and Ian Hislop are funny. Reply |
| 8. Author: ipswichpar Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 09:42 Watched by over 5 million people so I`m not quite sure why you are amazed, other than gobbing off again without understanding stuff. Reply |
| 9. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 09:50 Has Stephen Fry ever been on HIGNFY? Not for a long time I suspect. Reply |
| 10. Author: ipswichpar Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 10:00 3 times apparently with last appearance in 2000 Reply |
| 11. Author: tentonhammers Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 10:04 Could be scope for a wee .net version you know. Reply |
| 12. Author: tentonhammers Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 10:05 Hosted by GG Riva. I`ll draft the weekly statement apologising for him mentioning incorrect information. Reply |
| 13. Author: thebear Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 10:22 It humour guys, and the program can be be very clever and funny. Why they picked pars and raith i dont know. The flooded pitch photo, missed the mark though. Reply |

| 15. Author: NMCmassive Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 10:28 I’m surprised that’s still on tbh. COYP Reply |
| 16. Author: jake89 Date: Sat 31st Oct 2026. 11:12 The problem with these sorts of jokes is they`re clearly targeted. As mentioned, the flooded pitch wasn`t even in Scotland. The clip was probably from that game in ENGLAND where the ball could barely be kicked two metres. Crap joke. Reply |
