Have they always spoke so much shit it or is it just the modern way, trying to speak poems and rhymes hoping their clip will be used?

Watching the Brum v Leicester Game, the commentators were going on about the lower stands being rammed, the ground being a weapon for Birmingham. Meanwhile, you could see it wasn't rammed.

I imagine they have a few promos lines to fill yeah. The quality of which they are ticked off depends on the quality of the commentator i suppose

Definitely a new thing. It's lame.

Co-commentators are largely a bunch of fuck pellets too

BBC Sport Homepage had a live update click-through screen.

'Leicester take on Wayne Rooney's Birmingham'.

I know it isn't directly related but anyone who supports a premier league team and isn't from that city should be automatically banned from talking about football full stop too. This whole Super Sunday and overanalysis on football by idiots puts me off the game a lot.

The lower tiers looked empty

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

'We've not heard the Birmingham fans chant Wayne Rooney's name like that so far since he's been in charge'

Wake up chaps, nothing to do with him winning last weekend and only getting his second win since being in charge, clearly taking the piss out of Leicester fans regarding Wagatha Christie!

Reminds of when the commentators kept on going on about how AC Milan & Dortmund would be intimated by the crowd and atmosphere at Newcastle in the CL. This despite both clubs having average league crowds of 72000 & 81200 last season

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The main thing they do which has annoyed me for a long time is using guttural stops to try and sound hard.

Gary Weaver's particularly bad for it tbf

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

You can almost guarantee that with about 5 minutes to go they'll come up with the line 'I get a feeling that something big is going to happen in this game' only to say 'I told you so' if there's a late goal. It happens in virtually every close game on telly. Piss poor

Effective for keeping leaves out of the downpipe though.

"Mo Salah's love story with Liverpool continues"

He scored a goal ffs

You hear the same on the Beeb for early round FA Cup games too. Same on the radio. The commentators are trying to sell the action and the game to the audience, even if the game is shit.

Most live TV games, I put the game on mute and have something else on to watch and listen to. Still see the tackles and goals but don't have to put up with the drivel.

 

[David O'Day]

Don Goodman and Andy hinchcliffe make me tur the sound off

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Nothing worse than a female commentator with a squeaky voice on the BBC, especially when a goal is scored screaming like an 8 year old girl.

Hi Joey, when is the podcast out again?

 

[skybluecam]

Peter Drury is annoying me now. Great for genuinely big moments, but when he’s doing it twice a minute every weekend it loses the gravitas.

 

[CBS16]

Clive is the GOAT, anyone else is just a poor imitation

 

[oscillatewildly]

King Edward - 'The nation's favourite'. It's always been nip & tuck with Maris Piper but as far as tubers go it's as common as the muck from which it's reared.
Close thread.

Tbf this does sound like it should be a thing, possibly sold in b&q. (It’s glottal)

Yeah, it's as if they get paid every time their Clip is used so they are trying to get the "they think it's all over" or "aguueerrrrrroooo" moments to cash in.

Sometimes it's ok to be quiet for a couple of seconds.

On another note, Stewart Robson is on the new version of FIFA and it tells me every game he played for us! Bit of advertising.

 

[Bad Boy]

Co commentators endlessly talking shit.

How are commentators cashing in on their clips? Did Martin Tyler record Aguerooo (Deep House Mix) and whack it on Spotify?

he didn't say they were, he said it was like they were paid every time a clip is used

Bring back Alan Green if a game was sh.t he would say so in commentary.

It's almost like they don't realise it's the moment not what they say that makes it.

Also the simps that bum the things that are said in a random mid season game. Drury in particular.

Also, does anyone watch the pre/mid/post game punditry?

No, it's drivel, but at least it gives you the chance to have a quick shit and to recharge your glass.

This popped up on my timeline earlier and I think is perfect. No ridiculous prose, just appreciation.
