I have an idea. Why do channels bother with boring commentators such as Martin 'pallbearer' Tyler and his ilk? Far better just have the lads back in the studio discussing the game I reckon with the live feed of the game simultaneously. Gives a much better insight than just the 'expert analysis' for 2 mins at half time then a break then a bit after the match. Have Souness, Andrews, Kerr and Tommy Presenter discussing it. Gives a 'watching it live with experts' or a down the pub feel to it. Get better interaction that way than just some boring commentator with an ex player co-commentator.

What's the point of him saying that every game 30 seconds before kick off? I know Martin. I've tuned in because I know its fooking live plus if I am in any doubt (which I'm not) it has 'live' written in the corner of the screen under Sky Sports.

Catchphrase? Say what you see. Well I see a useless commentator. Should we expect a 'Cant touch this' type novelty record from him any month now with 'And it's live!' replacing ''Can't touch this''. Also a sitcom where situations arise where he can trot out his catchphrase? ''Hi Dad. Me and Alison want to go see Britney Spears at the NEC Birmingham tonight.'' ''Oh wow. Can I come?'' ''Oh dad you wouldn't like it.'' ''I actually like her music. I bought a CD of hers back in the day.'' ''Really?!'' ''Yes! I've always wanted to see her in person. And it's LIVE!!!!!!!!'' (cue coughing from the live studio audience) or ESB adverts warning children of the dangers of touching electricity wires like they used to show back in the 80's when children were thick as sh*t and had to be told not to put their hands in fire etc.. Martin Tyler pops up to warn a child retrieving a football from a power line. ''No son you don't want to do that!'' ''Why is that Mr. Tyler?'' ''Because its LIVE!'' |

Souness on the analysis on virgin media at half time there kept refer to "our teams" and "our style" in Europe, talking about (presumably) English (maybe British generally) teams in Europe. Eh yeah, except you're on Irish TV, you f**king gobsh*te.

Hamilton & Houghton were as dull as fook last night on RTE. Even with an injury time winner they couldn't sound a bit excited, boring coonts

Was out watching Liverpool v West Ham the other week in a boozer here : the channel they had it on had an issue with the commentary so for the first 20 minutes it was just the stadium noise and nothing else. It was glorious !

At least he's British and played for English teams. What excuse do Tommo and Anto down the pub have talking in their fake Scouse or Manc accents calling the players by their first name ? |

Commentators talk way way too much.

This is exactly what should be offered by channels giving live coverage. It surely couldn't be that hard to have an option to turn George Hamilton or whoever off, but still get all the pitch side sounds. 99 percent of commentary now is poison. The constant need to talk is painful. They simply can't let there be dead air for any moment. Then you have the likes of Hamilton who confuses half a football team in every game ' and that's Mane on the ball now. He passes it to Mane out wide who takes on the full back. He pulls it back to Mane on the edge of the box and what a shot, off the bar!!' It's totally shameful at this point that lads like him are still getting paid for this level of work.

"I called him an embarrassment to FIFA and to himself," .... He said 'No-one speaks to me like that'.... and I said, "well I do' and that was that."

Ffs, he called Mane's name for Liverpool's 1st goal and had to correct himself to say it was Daniel Sturridge. And he didn't start getting confused yesterday either - I still remember him commenting on Spain's goal against Ireland in that 2nd round match of the 2002 world cup 'it's Luis Enrique'. No it wasn't George, it was Fernando Morientes.
