I prefer smith, even aluko, to him

 

One England game he spent 20 minutes commentating on a green balloon which had drifted on to the pitch. Pretty much sums him up.

Crikey, she is shit

Which is a shame as she was brilliant when she first started her punditry at the world cup or euros I can't remember which. She'd researched and had knowledge that the usual suspects didn't and she came across really well.

Think that is what annoys me about their punditry they think that and the Overlap is the same job, not see  Richards on there, but Keane comes across very well even when the joke is on him.

Richards has hit haircut three times a week at £300 a go, that is enough for me to dislike him. The screeching look at me having so much fun attitude is fucking annoying.

Don't mind Richards if he focuses on just talking rather than laughing and calling himself Big Meeks and isn't having a love in with Lineker and Shearer

Nedum Onuoha is good, as he doesn't laugh or talk about himself in the third person

Sutton and Savage are good on 606 

I tend to only like the pundits on R5 and none of them on tv

Except for the ones on BT goals show, none of whom have ever played, but know everything about the clubs and leagues across Europe

 

Mickey Owen won the Ballon D'or but is the shittest pundit around, Danny Baker would struggle to run 40yds but is one of the best pundits out there.

The idea you need to have played the mens game at the top level in order to have an opinion on mens footy is bollocks

Aye. Barton is basically advocating jobs for the boys. 
 

If he wants ‘experts’ in their fields, what the fuck was he doing appearing  on Question Time?

Tell you what Joey, when we need an expert shithouse in wife beating, you’re first in the queue  

Prick

You can have an opinion but unless youve been there, its a bit guesswork

Problem is that a lot who have been there / done it are numb as piss

That's why the best 'pundits' are learned writers, who like an inside knowledge of what it's like to be a player.

It's the difference between being a writer and a critic.

Ex player and the worst pundits ever.

 

The man commenting on our game Monday said 'both teams would like to score the opening goal'.

 

It is insight like that that women who have only played at the highest level of women's football miss .

A good point about the radio guys. I think they have to perhaps talk a bit more to convey to game. Therefore have to be good.

Not sure if it was Motty or someone, who said sometimes speaking less is better when on the television. 

Slightly different approach.

Haha

Often do literacy lessons where we do the commentary ourselves over sporting events. Christ it’s some skill to do well.

Think he needs to remember his french accent

That would render any tweets utterly pointless 

 

The work offers have dried up

final resort is to go fully batshit mentle on Twitter, try and catch the eye of GB News or some such shite.

He’ll be drinking Tennants Super on a roundabout in Birkenhead by April.
