I don't know why even that annoys me, but it does. My favourite commentary team was always Kevin Keatings and Gerry Armstrong from the Sky La Liga days. Criminally underused, especially Keatings. Ahh,Natalie Sawyer and La Liga.Sky hasn't been the same since they left. Keatings was great but Armstrong used to do my scone in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armstrong was brilliant, he did the World Cup in 2002 for some station and he was talking about these players in pre Youtube days from the Dutch and French leagues like Rommedahl and Diouf and he was so knowledgable 20 years later we have Danny Murphy demanding Adama over Pedri or Sarabia who he never heard of 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought, but maybe they should get someone less infuriating to do it. God he was terrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite classy reminding viewers how much covid has had an terrible impact in North Italy. He must still have connections from his Inter Milan days.

Very long watch that was. I'm not sure Harry knew what day it was or where he was. He's winding down now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) So Jemaine Jenas saying there was a little nibble, a slight touch so it was a penalty yet he preached how it was right for an example to set against watkins for diving. What a bloody hypocrite. He makes me cringe. Edited July 9, 2021 by PaulC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use the iPlayer (if your telly has it) then you get HD picture + radio comms. But sometimes that’s no better, not the comms, but the summariser, I mean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the summarisers are not always better; I feel like they used to be. I always used to like Jimmy Armfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the summarisers are not always better; I feel like they used to be. I always used to like Jimmy Armfield On my telly, for bbc England games I’ve gone to the sort of tv home page where there’s a list of the apps, podged iPlayer and the option has been there as “watch live” or “watch from start”. I’ve podged on watch live and then a thing appeared for selecting radio comms with a coloured button…but beer had been taken so I may have remembered that a bit wrong. Basically I sort of stumbled across it, as I’m not really familiar with this new Android telly for the complicated stuff. In fact I’m wondering if I did it on the sky box bbc app. Perhaps a small child or geek may be available to help us and yes JA was good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Watching the tennis and they have Henman and Becker alongside Andrew Cotter and both are informative and interesting to listen to. They clearly pick the wrong ex-pros for football commentary (probably down to the media bias of who they played for!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
