He only got the job because of Ronnie Radford goal for Hereford against Bar Codes apparently.

One of his sheepskins draped over the coffin and fellow commentators as pall bearers would be quite fitting.

Sid Waddell was the best sports commentator
Brian Moore the best for football.
Misting was one of the better ones.

Absolutely right,. remember the Grand National's in the 70's with Red Rum and the dulcet tones of O'Sullevan, Julian Wilson and I think John Hamner. Good days.

I met him on a couple of occasions and also took a few telephone bets from him when I worked at Ladbrokes HQ in the nineties.
A true gent and iconic figure who will be sadly missed by many.

Met him on a stag weekend in Bournemouth many years ago and he was an absolute gentleman, and he would wipe the floor with literally anyone when it came to football trivia.

Brian Moore, Motson , Eddie Waring, Peter O'Sullivan, Bill McLaren, Dickie Davies, Dan Maskell, Brian Johnson, Richie Benaud, Peter West.

When FA Cup Final day was still a 'thing', no one better than Motty on the mic. RIP.
