HanoiVillan Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I mean, he's not exactly good, he mostly seems to consist of stating the obvious at a very high pitch, but he's not even close to being the worst summariser I've heard. He's approximately 1% as annoying as Lawro, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Quote Northern Ireland’s Will Grigg was one of 37 players nominated for Uefa’s Best Player in Europe Award, with the Wigan striker receiving as many votes as the Manchester United target Paul Pogba and more than the Bundesliga’s top scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Grigg, who did not play a single minute for his country at Euro 2016 became one of the names of the tournament after the 1996 song Freed From Desire was adapted in his honour. Will Grigg’s On Fire reached No6 in the iTunes chart. However, that and the 24-year-old’s 25 goals for Wigan in League One were not quite enough for him to be included on the 10-man shortlist for the prize, which is voted for by journalists from each of Uefa’s 55 member associations. Gareth Bale is one of four players from the European champions Real Madrid to make the cut, along with Cristiano Ronaldo, Pepe and Toni Kroos. The Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, Antoine Griezmann of Atlético Madrid and France, Barcelona’s Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez are joined by Thomas Müller and Manuel Neuer of Bayern Munich on the list, which features no players from the Premier League. The Leicester duo Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy just missed out, with West Ham’s Dimitri Payet in 13th position. The list will be whittled down to three players at the start of August, with Uefa’s jury to decide on the eventual winner during the Champions League group stage draw in Monaco on 25 August. Last year’s winner Messi will be hoping to collect his third award after claiming the inaugural prize in 2011. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/jul/18/will-grigg-votes-paul-pogba-uefa-best-player Edited July 18, 2016 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Perhaps Channel 5 could fit more actual football in their EFL highlights show if they didn't show 5 trailers for other ch5 shows in the ad break. The first break actually contained one proper commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Yes he did the voiceover for a couple of games. Still fancies himself as a poet with his rhyming descriptions. It's still awful Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Thing I would say is, Jack has been promoted this season. We need to wait 10 months to see if we can match that ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 There is more interest in the Championship this year than ever before, I can't help think that the TV coverage (or lack of) is at odds with the appetite. There are obviously cameras at each game - even if it's not a full works crew, so I fail to see why the EFL hasn't monetised the feeds for the international market. Whilst paltry in comparison with the PL, surely the games are worth something to TV stations wishing to do a live, or extended highlights, broadcast? Combined, Newcastle, Villa, Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday, Wolves, Norwich, etc would have a decent expat audience to make a selection of additional live games worthwhile IMO. If there are no broadcast rights to be sold, why not allow the clubs to stream the non-TV matches themselves? Seems a strange way to shut-out an audience in 2016. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
