NeoGeo7 10,498 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 50 minutes ago, Creampuff said: Great commentator. Not afraid of silence, well-researched, and calls the action without jumping back to the same cliches. This was the most noticeable thing for me, in the second half when we were just knocking the ball about in St Mirrens half and he said Aribo to Kent................................nothing really was needed (and had there been a crowd it let’s you hear the match atmosphere not that this mattered today). No offence to Tom but the general commentary and discussion was much better, the only thing missing was the bits of knowledge of our club and matches from years ago (although he did clearly do research ahead of the game).

I think Tom and Clive are job sharing at the moment.

Think people are harsh on TM though, he isnt a bad commentator, he is a fan thats asked to call our games, he can be annoying as fuck sometimes but its understandable given its the club he supports and loves Ffs look at the shite we all talk in this match thread during games, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swally 6,289 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I enjoyed Thompsons commentary alongside Clive Big Katic as a pundit was good as well, especially when he said he was ready to smash people Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've met him on a couple of occasions and he's been an absolute gentleman. I believe some of those who slaughter him have such opinions due to the secret keepers collecting all clips of him commentating on us getting skelped, the weirdo bastards.

I just felt Clive did the commentating really well today. I know many others aren't fans of TM though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked like a big club today in terms of production If the home games PPV model can stay when fans are allowed back in then I don't see any reason not to.

But yeah he was excellent today. A few slips but he had researched well and I'm sure if he hangs around for when Ibrox is full then he will be a Ranger for life. We do need to be told the truth regards the missing crowd noise in the 2nd half from the Club though.
