Commentators and Pundits

He’s no Brian Moore.
Graeme Le Saux is hard to listen to as a commentator, he hates West Ham.
Jamie Carragher has to be the most unwatchable pundit out there surely.
Who do you rate and hate?

Clinton Morrison and Carlton Cole are good.
Both really improve the coverage

I totally object to these lady footballers being wheeled out to comment on the men's game. At least cunts like Le Saux and Carragher have earned the right to be there because they have actually played Premier League football. I don't have a problem with the lady footballers themselves who are a bit of a mixed bag in terms of talent, they're just taking what's being offered to them (even if it is putting genuine equality back about fifty years) but I just object to them being asked to be there in the first place. They dont wheel out League one players to comment on the Premier League do they? Because they have no experience of Prem football. But the gutless worms of Sky/BBC/ITV seem to feel the need to wheel out any old lady footballer to tick a box, what a load of shit. Dont even get me started on them getting rid of white pundits to shoehorn in a disproportionate number of new pundits of darker persuasion. Completely disproportionate to the populace and a massive degrade in the quality of punditry from what I've seen. Stop the world, I want to get off.

A few years ago the BBC had on their website some audio of great (old) commentary.
One sticks in the mind about Paul Paul Gascoigne.
'He's stomping around like a fat brat'.
Don't look for it...it's gone.

I love the Turkish and Arabic commentators on stream. More interesting in a foreign language than some of the Doris’s and wokies we get. You always hear “Mo Salah” whether he is playing or not

Super injunctions would probably prevent that.
Joey Barton one spoke of a vast closet of skeletons.

Completely unrelated to this subject, apparently there is something called super injunctions.

What qualifies Emma Hayes to be talking about top level football?

I don’t like McManaman on commentary - he’s incredibly condescending and also really biased to Liverpool.
Don’t care for Emma Hayes either, that may be from the arrogance she has after reportedly turning down a league 2 men’s club - saying it was a step down.

Moyes ended up with a £30k fine a few years back for a comment to Vikki Sparks.
He was merely light heartedly taking exception to some of her post match questioning.
The ultra woke Lineker was one of those who publicly condemned him.
I somehow fancy Lineker isnt quite the squeaky claen choirboy he would like to have us believe.

I think any pundits that are on Man U games are far too OTT. They are either overly ecstatic about menial things if they win or far too critical if they lose. I mean Redknapp saying the ball was their best player last night was stupid, they had a few players who did alright, he didn't take into account that Wolves played brilliantly.

I cannot stand Vicki Sparks, awful shrill voice and sounds like a 5 year old kid screaming "goal"
I don't mind the pundits, maybe because I rarely watch them.
MoTD takes me about 5 mins to watch as I only watch the goals, no Spurs matches ever (Unless we beat them)

I actually found Guy Mowbray particularly unbearable during the Euros, with his unoriginal, hackneyed rehearsed lines throughout and there's just something in his voice when he gets excited that's really annoying.
Actually I forgot to mention Jenas- what a load of fucking shit he is as a commentator. Quite how they are the BBC's lead pair I simply don't understand. Give me Jonathan Pearce over Mowbray any day. He's not like he was, but he's light years better.
I didn't mind matterface and dixon as a duo on ITV, and I actually quite like Emma Hayes as well. she's one of the few that actually notices and relays the tactical nature of what's unfolding on the pitch rather than just adding banal crap about whether they think either of the teams or players are playing particularly well or badly and not why the match is going as it is.
They should go for managers/ex managers as pundits and co commentators rather than just players. They can usually impart so much more wisdom and insight.

I mainly listen to the radio as TV pundits (Neville aside) are pretty terrible.
I'd say Andy Reid is probably my favourite pundit at the moment. Rob Green is a very good co commentator too.
