Tbf to them it was a bit of a nothing game.

They’re paid to comment on games. Pair of twats.

Another vote for the 'no sound' watching of the match. I also have been doing it for yonks and have noticed how a lot of after match 'headlines' tend to focus more on the pundits reactions rather than the game itself.

I've stumbled onto SFR coverage in France which makes more sense to me than Sky even though I don't understand French. It means I have the background chatter without having to actually listen to what's being said.

I'd sooner spend 90 minutes in an air tight room, my only source of sound is Dancing in the Moonlight by Toploader on repeat, light only from an image of James Corden smiling at me from a tv screen, and with Kerry Katona's lady part queefs being tubed in as my only source of air supply than listen to Tyler during our games.

A well thought out post.

Quite funny that we've all seen Kerry bits.

Wankpundery, word of the season. 

[Stickman]

Sky this morning trying to hype up the Utd game by saying "Liverpool won't be happy with the team Utd picked last night". Even though the club hasn't commented and they obviously know Utd disrespected the league but chose to ignore that .

So made up I've fucked them off .

Edit 

And made up Klopp hasn't risen to the bait in his presser

If Martin Tyler worked in an Indian call centre, that'd be his real name.

Miss Jimmy Hill, Des Lynam, Bob Wilson, Big Ron, Motson, Barry Davies and Brian Moore.

 

Just people who knew and loved the game without an agenda. I have watched some of the old football stuff a lot recently and people like Lynam or Bob Wilson were great at what they did and the quality of the commentary on both Itv and bbc was different class.

Ron Atkinson is a big racist prick and I dont miss him at all. The others? Yes,but chinny hill was a bit of a dick yet entertaining at least.

Not condoning the comment at all but thought he was good on ITV before it. I liked Jimmy Hill personally. Forgot Hansen as well, who was a brilliant pundit.

 

I mean aside from Souness I can't think of a competent pundit. I can't think of a commentator I like and you used to be spoilt for choice.

 

From Lynam or Bob Wilson to the likes of Linekar....Jesus.

I've rewatched some old Match of The Day, Big Matches and Kick Offs etc over the past few months and they were well better than now. Jimmy Hill was a massive prick but he did seem to care about the game a little,although he never missed a trick to make money from it such as installing the first all seater stadium as Coventry Chairman. He was also a bit 'Garth Crookes' on some of the topics of the day.

[Trumo]

I suppose that is the main difference between then and now. Back then, the commentators and pundits had a genuine interest in the game. These days they all love all the bullshit that surrounds the game, and look to make a name for themselves by trying to be controversial.

[Stickman]

What is it with our ex-players ?...This one is even worse than his pen in 84

 

 

[Lario]

Nicol talking absolute shite there.

 

Wish our ex-players stopped being cunts towards us.

Our "foreign" ex-Reds are way more favourable than our British Isles ex-Reds.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Pissed off he missed the Sky money like a few others. Great player but towards the end played like Bruce. Hmm.

[Elite]

What a knob.

Funny how lots of our ex players talk bollocks about the club that made them. They should be more like thommo. Cunts

No mate everyone is a cunt. The fact that Shaka Hislop is the best of the lot sums them up. I remember reading Jockey's autobiography and he said that Nicol was one of the most stupid twats he ever met. Seems he was spot on.

Fair comments Index , but I was having a sly dig at Dave Usher's former punditry.

Ah yesi remember that now.

 tnx for that Rog i'd managed to wipe that from the memory

[CrownPaints]

I have a lot of the old games playing in the background when I am working and listening to Gerald Sinstadt, Tony Gubba, Barry Davies, David Coleman, Brian Moore. Voices that defined the 70’s and 80’s for me with football as well as the BBC radio commentators. Usually intelligent and insightful comments.

 

Listened to Monday Night club tonight and was mostly 2 hours of “bants” and Micah “I’ll do any media me” Richards and Chris “I’m a grumpy old bastard” Sutton cackling at each other.

I see what you did there, or I hope I do.

[Anubis]

Micah Richards needs to be fronting some reality tv nonsense like Big Brothers Little Brother, not annoying football fans with his shit punditry.
