I know we’ve all taken the piss when he gets players like Palmer and Sheaf mixed up, but I can’t deny after hearing his commentary Saturday, he ain’t half invested in us 😂 genuinely love the bloke

Love his passion on commentary, think he's gotten way better in recent years. Thing that winds me up is the air time he gives to the bedwetters post game, or the completely inane ones that call for Robins' head after a win. They're clearly wums so why give them the air time? He also never ever ever criticises a ref or admits that they get things wrong. But other than that, he's great! 😂

Must be difficult at times knowing who is who intsantly when we score a goal half the fans say someone different when it is at the opposite end of the ground, must admit Im useless.

On I follow against Middlesbrough their commentator said that sakamoto went off Injured. It was Wright.

After Rob Gurney I thought he was a significant downgrade and took some time to get used to him. Thoroughly enjoy his commentary these days. Probably enhanced by watching some of the games and you can enjoy some of the mistakes he makes!

Clive’s become the dogs bollocks. Spoke to him on the train to Huddersfield away in 2021 (where he told me BBC CWR pool car was in the garage and they booked him a train with 4 changes as a substitute) and he was a gent …..asked what I thought to the season and explained how it was hard to project excitement with all the issues in the last 15 years and how he had fallen in love with the City and from 2018 onwards, it has been the finest time of his broadcasting career commentating on the Sky Blues. I asked him if he got to Tranmere games much and he said very rarely with CCFC commitments, so if that doesn’t prove he’s invested, he didn’t know what will.

Personally I think I his commentary of the goals at the league 2 play off final was phenomenal. I think mixing names up adds to the unintentional humour of the commentary. Mixing up Tom Bayliss with Bakayoko will always go down as one of his finest moments.

I offered him a can but he said 9.30am was too early for him. Top man other than that.
