Too much about them and BT is incredibly top heavy on rag shite. That saying there are some good ones coming through. Like Adam Summerton, think Dempsey does a good job on bundesliga. James Horncastle with Jimbo is beautiful but I could imagine meeting JH in real life could be traumatic. I like Carragher. His partner and Redknapp a lot less so. Goes on mute if the green mount fingerers son is on. Find the foreign stations showing English games much easier to listen too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 The ones on BT are soul destroying. Carra and Neville are the best going, just not on their own teams games. People slate Danny Murphy but I like him, hes ace on a Monday on TS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a Nobender and was clearly jealous of us for many years. He always forecast against us in his predictions and was very begrudging when we got a result. Can’t stand the cunt.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted May 24, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted May 24, 2022 Dempsey is top notch. Pinky and Perky from the two red shithouses are very knowledgeable but can get a bit annoying sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met him about 20 years ago, after a Bolton game he'd been commentating on. Pretty sure it was v Middlesbrough, but not sure. His sister ran my local pub, where me and my old man would go when we got back from the match, and he was in there that night. Asked him what he thought of the game, and he just moaned about losing money as he'd backed us to get beat, but we won. We took the piss out of him for a bit, and he really didn't like it. He had a chauffeur with him at the time as he'd lost his licence for drink driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop laughing at shit as though it's the funniest thing ever. Savage is stealing a living on TV & radio. Don't mind McManaman. Like Sutton on R5. Like Shearer. Nothing against Lineker. Hoddle puts me to sleep but knows his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWFC_LOVE Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I like Carragher aside from Liverpool bias. His knowledge about us on the episode of his podcast with Paddy McGuinness was great; mentioned several players that PM probably didn’t even know, and spoke vividly about watching Everton at Burnden in the early 90’s. Unsurprisingly knew a lot more about Bolton than Paddy did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Carragher loves himself but knows his stuff. Same with Neville really but they’re the best two out there. Keane and Richards are decent entertainment value but offer little expert knowledge. Sometimes fans don’t want in depth analysis though, they just want to watch ex players lose their shit. I like Merson on soccer Saturday but the rest are all bang average Standard of punditry is awful mostly though when it comes to analysis. In fact the EFL pundits are usually more insightful than the PL ones. Quest had some decent people on. Abonglahor on TS has to be up there with the worst opinions. Mcmanaman, Savage and Owen are also shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
