It seems that all the old farts end up leaving Sky for Talksport. Jim White, Souness, etc.
Better match for their audience I'd imagine. Young kids wouldn't be listening to talk radio

TalkSport do quite well on TikTok. Viral clips.

Would have preferred Julian Warren who does the midweek soccer panel.  But good luck to Simon Thomas as he has had tragedy in his life.

The classic RTE panel went to sh*t once Bill, John and then Eamo retired. Commentary hasnt been the same either without George and Jim Beglin.

Soccer AM went to sh*t and Soccer Saturday is heading that way.

It'll be the same when Martin Tyler retires from Sky commentary too.

Ive gotten bored with Tyler's commentary for years now. 


He is getting on a bit and is maybe not as energetic or enthusiastic as he once was but the alternatives aren't much better.

How many of us said the same about George Hamilton or Jimmy Magee towards the end of their careers and now we're stuck with bleedin Darragh Maloney.

RTEs Euro 2020 panels and commentary were painfully poor last year, especially the likes Stephanie Roche and Aine O'Gorman on co comms for 90 minutes.

Most TV stations are trying to move away from the "main commentator" for that reason. With RTE it's moving away from Hamilton for every Ireland games, and Canning for every All Ireland. Sky have done it a good bit with their Super Sunday and main games, BBC wouldn't have a "main"commentator these days too. It's too ahrd to replace a Bill

Has he? He tweeted last night that it was news to him and will be back in a few weeks. Unless circumstances have changed since then?
Kammy would definitely be known for being on the ball and aware of everything that was happening around him!!

LOL Aye was trying to elude to that with my "Has he?"
