Commentators BAAAAAHH

[theladf]

This weekend and throughout many of the games I'v seen so far the commentators have really gripped my S**t some of their work is comical, yesterday it was stated that Kewell and Viduka's leaps both lacked conviction! they're Aussies, I thought convictions were a birthright!!!! Ok a bit pedantic but When I hear David Pleat I cringe as he tries to add inflection in to the names of foreign players to try to make himself sound worldly. He did however come up with this during USA v Italy,

"Brian McBride is arguably pound for pound the best striker in the Premier League"
followed by a strange gurgling sound as Clive Tyldesley tried not to gag. If you hear anymore of this nonsense report it here and lets expose the Charlatans, Mick McCarthy and even Motty have been awful.

I have to agree with you, the standard of commentating in this world cup has been poor to worse, and I would say you need to add another option to your poll one entitled "ALL of them".

At least some of the footie has been gripping to watch (Brazil vs Austrialia anyone?)

why isn't gareth (ohhh i missed a penalty) southgate on there??

His commentary was bad on the england - T&T game. and he'll prolly be put on for others with ITVDT_Xtremez_34:

Unfortunately I cannot vote in this poll, as all the games in my neck of the woods have Spanish commentary!

Having said that, it is amazing how often 1966 is mentioned whenever England are playing - even by these foreign pundits!

If you mean Mark Lawrenson, I agree with you 100%. What grips me, is if all these comentators are so critical of tactics and player selection then why aren't they top managers?

Because being a manager is too much like work maybe?!!
