Ian Darke, despite being a Pompey fan has always been very very fair when commentating on the Saints, and that goes back years to when Sky first started covering football.

He is one of the best commentators around IMHO and never shows any bias.

 

I thought Minto was very good too, dont see that he was bias, he said all night that we were much much better.

 

The only one biased was Franny ;)

I liked it when Franny kept saying "We" when refering to saints then remembering he is on TV corrected himself to say the saints. Like he was trying to remain unbias for the camera's lol.

Didnt Franny say 'out on the p1ss' to the presenter when they were talking before the match. I was reading the paper at the time but I'm sure I heard that. They were both sat there thinking 'oh sh1t!'

I was a bit surprised that they didn't know Thomas had spent a lot of his career at right back though.

 

And slightly less surprised that they didn't know James' preferred position is central midfield.

It was amusing that they thought we had forgotten Deon Burton was a skate

To be fair, there were loads of people stood near me in the Northam who were shouting "you fat bastard" at him rather than the "you skate bastard" that a few of us had started :rolleyes:

He also happened to mention in the second half that Markus Liebherr was a German!!

 

Which he is/was originally at least, but the commentator also implied he was the crane-firm Liebherr, ie his brother, as opposed to the 'common rail diesel' firm Liebherr.

 

 

Re; Scummers' >>>slightly less surprised that they didn't know James' preferred position is central midfield.

 

Am I the only person who thinks never what his preferred postion is, he is actually better at right back than central midfield now?

 

k.

I thought I heard that too, but because of the lack of reaction I assumed I heard wrong.... maybe not then

How ?? unless you meant he was slightly biased in our favour ??

Thought both were good.

when they nearly scored he creamed himself. I will accept he was not really biased Edited by OldNick

I thought that too. I even re-wound the Sky plus a couple of times. If you listen carefully......................and I mean carefully it could be pitch!!!

Minto made the "Lallana wil be attracting the attention of big clubs" comment.

That wound me up for some reason!

Though Darke was fair to us,he felt that we can push for playoffs.Even Minto agreed after

previously saying mid table would be an achievement.
