Laudbertz 0 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 First of, this has nothing to do with the England team. Does anyone else think they are the worst pairing of all the commentators in the WC? Lawrenson saying the same negative things over and over again through-out the game and Motty's facts/statistics from the 1930's just make me cringe. I hope a good chunk of the games left are on ITV. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascender 352 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 TBH I don't think much of ITV or BBC's actual commentary teams, probably because I think Andy Gray and Martin Tyler are at least 32x better. At least with the Beeb their pundits and analysis are usually quite good and are ad-free. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,684 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 There's not much to draw between the channels. Both of them have annoying folk on them 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 850 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Agreed and Im glad I have commentators ive never heard before for this WC. Barry Davies was quite good for the BBC before retiring but still quite boring. Motson is a prime reason why Scots what England pumped every game. Its a pity Sky couldnt coverage the WC aswell as it being on terrestrial tv, but Tyler and Gray deserve time off for the WC. Im just glad i get them over here for the EPL. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 The worst thing about the coverage of non-England games is that they'll fit about 10 minutes of England coverage into the HT analysis or before the game starts. Everytime Brazil got a free kick last night against Croatia all Motson kept saying was "this is where Ronaldinho scored against England 4 years ago" no matter where on the park the free kick was. Eff off ya wee scumball. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudbertz 0 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 Oh id much rather it be Tyler and Gray too..... but thats not an option, so its gotta be ITV. To be fair to Motty last night, he only brought up England 3 times (that i can remember).... thats gotta be some kind of record. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
