OrangeBurn Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 If anyway watched it, I think he brought up Rangers at least 4-5 times. The Keeper, Christainsen twice. PLG (as they were the last team to play European football there) Sionko. Our Run in Europe last season. I think he is a great commentator. Any ideas what his name is?

TMWWBK Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Peter Drury and Jim Beglin? The ITV4 duo that covered our UEFA run last year. Themselves along with Robbie Earl have always been very complimentary towards Rangers, even before their ex-colleague McCoist left them for Ibrox.

OrangeBurn Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Yeh, I like the whole Trio of ITV 4 presenters and commentators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brubear Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Drury is the actual commentator with Jim Beglin the expert summariser, I assume it is the ex Liverpool player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMWWBK Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Beglin raves about KT all the time, loves how he plays the game. 10 minutes into extra time in the Fiorentina tie and he literally couldn't find any more superlatives to describe Cuellar. Possibly the only time a player has been so good to the point the co-commentator has been lost for words when talking about a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamthatIam Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 He knew then and knows now We Arra People. Seems to have a wee place in his heart for us. Maybe had enough of Timmy's plastic paddyness? Q. Is paddyness a word? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer 11 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 "It's all gone blue " classic moment watched our run in the final stages to the UEFA final on ITV4 and i actually enjoyed listening to a commentator for the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeBurn Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Jim Beglin - I didn't know he was Southern Irish. Maybe the first time a Southern Irish person has said something about Rangers without trying to get us sued or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blyth Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Jim Beglin is a terrific co-commentator, his knowledge of the game and genuine enthusiasm is so refreshing. As TMWWBK says, he was absolutely gushing over Cuellar during that Fiorentina game. The word 'collosal' was being thrown about, then he just couldn't find anything better than that!

bearwithasoarhead Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 For me the best commentary team for live games. Better than anything that the bbc, stv and sky can offer. No bias, No mention of 66 world cup, beckham, Man utd , celtic, etc etc etc . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
