The top duo (in my opinion) are  Peter Drury and david Pleat on itv. Excellent commentary by drury and great stats and insight by (ex spurs manager:)  Pleat !

I cant see (or hear) anyone better.
Opinions??
I think Tyler and Andy "Very" Grey are the most self righteous and a**licking duo ever to sit behind a mic. Motty is fast dissolving into his book of stats (mostly useless ones).
 Barry davies (my all timefave!!) has retired....
 George "danger here " hamilton....???    nuff said!!!

as an everton suppoerter I hate to say it, but i abosolutelty hae Andy Gray, he talks the biggest load of absolute nonsense and pure shi*e I've ever heard from a comentator. Just record him wonse and play it for every match he does as its the same crap every time! I really dont know how he holds onto his job!
Drury aint bad, wouldnt be mad about pleat but miles ahead of Gray! At least Hamliton is impartial and doesnt sput crap for the sake of it!

Barry Farkin Brit lover Davis????  Gimme a break lads, I grew up listening to that cnut and as a young bucko I'm not being paranoid to say that more often than not when a ball came to a Paddy he would just keep quiet till the ball went elsewhere.  I kid yiz not lads, I farkin can't stand Davis.  Motty is an anorak, but Davis??  Davis is a pr*ck lads.  And kerb crawling Pleat?? Ah come on lads...........ITV  are a joke.

I don't think I'm being paranoid Spur, it happened far too many times when I was watching games he was doing.  Not saying he hated the Irish, but I felt he ignored them a bit too much for my liking.

Hamilton is class, here are some examples of his fine work -
 
"The Baggio brothers, of course, are not related."
 
"Here's Ronaldo, we've almost seen him score one tonight...ooooh! Close but no banana"
"Referee Nodlinger is outstanding in the sense that he stands out."
 
"When I said they'd scored two goals, of course I meant they'd scored one."

"We don't really know what Iran are capable of when the gun is put to their head."

�The seeds of doubt that were sown at the weekend against Egypt have been doused by a dose of Jack Charlton's almighty weedkiller.�

I know he is not a commentator but I have to say Adrian Chiles is the business on MOTD2. they should get rid of Big ears and let him take over!!
Don't forget Jimmy MacGee what a legend, probably the most senile commentator going ,how has he still got a job god love him!!
Liverpool F.C go deo..

"Real Madrid are like a rabbit in the glare of the headlights in the face of Manchester United's attacks. But this rabbit comes with a suit of armour in the shape of two precious away goals."

 
”The midfield are like a chef...........trying to prise open a stubborn oyster to get at the fleshy meat inside.”

 
“The orange tide is lapping against the green door which refuses to open.”
”Kevin Moran.....oldest man on the pitch today...35 years of age.....of course the referee could possibly be older than that ......and technically he's on the pitch too.....then again his linesmen could be even older than him... but are they technically 'on' the pitch.”

He's still my fav though!!!
