Genius Commentator Lines

[GaNgStA kEeKs]

Just heard one from Andy Gray there. Speaking to Martin Tyler like he was thick and didn't know.

"Martin, you know - there are so many ways to score goals in football"

Made me chuckle - heard some crackers before but none spring to mind at the minute.

Im sure someone can list some good ones.

Who is your least favourite commentator?

I know on a karma basis that you shouldn't laugh at other people's mis-fortune but Ron Atkinson did my head in. I have to admit to having a chuckle at him being burgaled cause the burglars knew he was on TV....just thought he was an irrelevant commentator...Trevor Francis is another one - my many Asenal mates hate him with a passion but he's got as much personality as a pack of cornflakes.....

Big Ron was a joke as far as i was concerned.

Everytime he commentated on a Man Utd game he gave me the boak !

I used to shout at him (as if he could hear me like) and my missus would get cheesed off.

Trevor Francis's voice just grates.

A new personal "favourite" of mine is Steve Claridge, a terrible co-commentator. Half the time he just laughs out loud.

The twat on ITV who seems to go into orgasms about Man Utd in the CL, Tyldlesley (??), a fud if ever there was one, he's the sort who always gets some mention of England or English clubs into games where there are not even involved.

Steve Claridge did quite a few games on Radio 5 last season, and from listening to him I don't think he was too popular with his fellow commentators, he comes across as a real smart arse, who picks up on every slight mistake in commentary and tries to put the other guy on the spot.
Unfortunately he has a bit of time on his hands for this season too.

He was actually the studio "expert" for Leeds v Millwall on Sky today

He did slate a couple of the Millwall players at the opening Leeds goal at HT. Didn't hear any more of his comments, I had other stuff to do like ironing and gardening
