Following on from sausages thread, who do you really want to murder???

 

 

Andy Gray - you know why

Robbie Earl - you know why

 

John motson, not a pundit but as thick as poo, always remember his delight when Ronaldhinio scored for brazil against us in the world cup, idiot man.

 

Andy Townsend - Liked him as a a player for Saints, sent off last game and remember him being cheered off but as a pundit a spunkball.

 

Steve Claridge - what a knob, takes about half hour to say nothing, gambling fook up.

Steve Claridge , Oh yes ! How did he get to be a pundit ? Thick as two short planks.

Not a pundit but irritating the schitt out of me at the moment.... Colin Fracking Murray BBC Radio 5 Sports presenter with his exaggerated cheeky chappy N.Irish "accent". I would slap him if I ever met him.

Definitely cuddly Motty. Shut up you stupid little man.

I can't understand why Robbie Earle is employed as a pundit. He is barely coherent, never makes an incisive point and often struggles half way through sentences and falls into bouts of stuttering and errrrrring. Plus, with the exception of scoring at a world cup he piggy backed into, the guy did jack **** as a player. When Hansen makes a point, he is telling me stuff I wouldn't know (because I haven't won the European Cup and a **** load of titles), what is the point of Robbie Earle?

 

Also, Alan Shearer is the dullest bastard in the world. The sooner he gets the Newcastle job the better.

There is too much hate in the world if you ask me, first clubs and now this.

Why would I want to murder someone over being a football pundit? It's madness.

The starter of this highly negative thread should remember is it Christmas time and this is not what Christ would have wanted at all.

Agree with Motty, Claridge and Murray. Senile, boring and silly accent respectively.

 

Would like to add Phil Tomson. Moaning old Scouse git always masturbating over "Stevie" Gerrard on Soccer Saturday. Charlie Nicholas annoys me by association. Same dry voice, different annoying accent. Together they sound like a pair of blenders full of gravel.

 

And everyone associated with MOTD. Linekar is wetter than a blind lesbian in a fish mongers. Shearer is boring. Le Saux is boring. Dixon is boring. Keown looks like a Neanderthal and has the brains to boot. Hansen for the Morrison's adverts. Gabby Logan looks like a ladyboy.

How did I forget Phil Thompson and his 'all worship Liverpool' lectures for one hour before the 3pm football kicks off every Saturday?

what does annoy me is the number of commentators who have no grasp of the game - ie, Carvalho blatantly follows through with raised studs into a player's back - 'oh, that was an accident' says Motty...

or that animal Essien launches two-footed into someone's thigh clipping the ball en route - 'that wasn't a foul he got the ball' says another idiot.

 

An alarming lack of perception in their specialist areas.

And Shearer is the dullest man in Europe.

Absolutely. Most of them are dinlos who don't even know the rules.

 

It is completely unacceptable how the BBC spunks licence fee money on employing incompetents like Shearer and Dixon.

Not a pundit i know, but who is that Yank **** on 909 with Spooney? The bloke is a complete nob. Cant stand Alan Green either.

 

606 mate. 6-0-6.

 

It's Gabriel Marcoti. He is very knowledgeable but also comes across as a complete ****.

 

And another thing; why is some no mark dj presenting a football programme on the BBC. ****ing joke.

 

Danny Baker is great on 6-0-6 though.

+1. There was a goal on MOTD last night, can't remember which game (think it was Wolves?) where the commentator and the fans were screaming for offside and it was blatently obvious that the ball hit the opposition player on the way through and therefore it wasn't off side!

and I heard him on five live a couple of weeks ago going on about how great Fratton Park is for atmosphere and how great the skates fans are. Sorry but has he actually been there when they've not been playing AC Milan or one of the big 4 Prem sides. When they're playing Wigan and are losing it's like a ******* library. He's a c**t!

 

Others I don't like are Alan Smith, he's the new Trevor Brooking, always sits on the fence and never says anything controversial. Gary Birtles when he is co-commentating on Football League games, god that man is depressing to listen to. David Pleat always fecks me off and anyone else employed by ITV except Gabriel Clarke. And of course Lawrenson.

He seems to be 20 years out of date, I seem to remember him being asked during a match commentary a couple of years ago which teams were dark horses to qualify for the 2010 world cup from europe,

 

I think his response was "Well I think Denmark, Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union all have pretty good teams and could challenge anyone on their day

Is it just me that thinks Claridge comes across as a nice bloke who seems to praise Saints alot and knows alot about the game unlike alot of pundits.
Yes. but I thought it was quite a good effort when he scored for Millwall and turned his back on the Northam and showed his name on his shirt, maybe he's not such a bell

Mark Lawrenson = too camp and wears eye liner.

Rodney Marsh = hates Saints for some reason = C**T.

Kevin Keegan = rubbish at talking, glad he didn't become Saints manager.

Jamie R*****pp = doesn't let anyone else talk, recons he knows everything.

David Seaman = thick as sh*t.

I am with you on that. He is not actually a pompey fan either.

 

Anybody on ITV is automatically sh*t, but Earle, Townsend and that bloke who always presents from pitch side wearing a scarf deserve special abuse. Oooh, so does Clive Tyldesley (my son is playing his DS game at the moment with Tyldesley even winding me up with his commentary on there)

 

Used to like Motty, but frankly, he is a tiny bit mental now and should be in a home. And Garry Birltes is starting to annoy me as well.

 

Do like Jonathan Pearce, martin Tiler and a few others who I can't recall at the moment though

martyn Tyler..

 

watching the Liverpool game today..

 

almunia kick the ball out, fangregas had his back to it, as he turned he quickly realised the ball was heading straight for him and managed to stick a leg out and flick it on (went to a liverpool player)

 

Tyler said something like.."what an astonishing piece of skill etc"

**** me, who do you like.

 

Motson, don't care wat anyone says, the man is a legend and voice of football that a lot of people have grown up with. How many of you can do a better job, live broadcasting not as easy as you think it might be, does no-one have common sense. TV pundits may be dul compared to radio presenters but you can;t win with the public can you.

i have grown up with john motson comentating as long as i can remember this man has been on the tv, and i agree he is a legend in his feild the same way as eddie the eagle is a skiing legend, totally useless at their chosen profession/sport. this man should never have been allowed to go anywhere near a microphone

This post would be 100% correct , if it was written in 1979.

Robbie Earle is only on because ITV need a black guy on there to keep the quota. Although John Barnes spoke too quickly, he had more charisma than Earle.

 

Talksport do have some good pundits but unfortunatly they all break in to a big argument with each other every night. Which is something talksport insist on doing to get people to phone up.

 

When Lineker first started he wasn't very good but given time he is now very good. Hansen is good but he never had a good word to say about saints.

ALan Green has to be the biggest self opinionated tosser on radio, the way he puts people down who disagree with him makes my blood boil. I was picking some people up after the England Macedonia game and he tried to get in my cab as well, I tld him, quite politely, that I was picking up someone else and I didn't have enough room for him anyway, so he started giving me all the 'do you know who I am' ******. Needless to say he didn't get a lift. Knob.

If you consider Motson to be a legend, then hell, are your expectations low. I remember John Motson's first commentaries, and they were USELESS. HE WAS UTTER CRAP..! I couldn't believe it when he succeeded David Coleman as the main football commentator. I always thought the BBC would eventually see sense and get rid of him. But his sheer appalling bad commentary has been adopted like a lost child by the football viewing public. He is almost the worst football commentator it has ever been my misfortune to listen to. The worst being dear old Brian Moore [RIP]. At least the Beeb kicked him out quickly enough.

 

Actually, I've just changed my mind. Brian Moore was preferable, so Motty [le god, I hate that nickname] is the worst, as far as I'm concerned. Nothing against the bloke at all. Just that he has made a career out of being really poor at his job, IMO.

 

BTW, FF has prima-donna Motty stories to tell. :)

Jamie Redknapp just seams to disagree with any point that Andy Gray makes. Its better than just agreeing for the hell of it because having an opinion is good but after a while it does get rather annoying. He needs to go and get a proper job and get off our tellys every sunday afternoon

Not strictly true. One day I'll get around to posting up my MOTD copy of Saints V Spuds in 2003 FA CUP 3rd round, on Youtube. Hanson had some glowing things to say, and even Mark Lawrenson [miracles do happen] praised us. Ex-Spurs Lineker was totally gutted at being thrashed, but he kept his professional cool, which is credit to him. :)

It has been about 20 years since that was overturned. The player is offside when the ball is played; it doesn't matter if it hits an opponent on the way through, it's the position of the players when the attacker hits the ball that counts.

Somebody mentioned Rob Macaffery .... well he's doing a bang on job here in Dubai, admittedly hosting rather than live commentating the show.

 

We have the misfortune of hearing David Pleat quite often as one of the match experts at live games .... he is an utter and total t@ of the highest order and just the tone of his voice makes me want to kick in the TV :cool:

 

Alan Hansen is right up there in the bellend stakes as well .... and what is it with all the eye liner and make up? He has that much slapped on he looks plastic..... if you attached a few strings to him you could use him in Thunderbirds or Joe 90 :D

 

And one of his co partners in crime at Scouseland ... Phil Thompson ... never forgiven him for being such a bad sport on Sky when we dicked Liverpoop 4-2 on the Vaentines Day Massacre at The Dell in the snow. Matt's cracking first goal from 30 yards after 25 seconds was put down to a bad clearence by Liverpool, no mention of the power accuracy or technique of the shot. Mick Channon ripped him to shreads .... great viewing. :p Along the same lines was Mike Osman ripping apart Andy Gray on yet another Matty Supershow with the 2 wonder goals v Newcastle. Gray was trying to justify Branfarts exclusion of Matt from the team even after those 2 goals :cool:

 

Still have a soft spot for David Coleman ... not that we featured much on TV back then, but with Mick Channon playing for England I remember his short and sweet commentary towards the end of a move ....Channon .... 1-0.
