MisterC 8,660 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Whats everyones thought on Garth Crooks as a pundit? Always seems to talk sense and his analysis is spot on plus the way he talks slowly means he is easy to understand. I know the likes of Lawrenson, Hansen and Redknapp are probably the most popular but I dare say there are those who will says Crooks is better. Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Madina 776 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 He has moments of talking sense, but the other 90% of the time he reminds me of an annoying hyperactive child Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Richard Littlejohn's reaction at the end would suggest not.Let's hope Littlejohn didn't try any nonsense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

machine! 15 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 He's shit.Get James Richardson a gig somewhere!James richardson is a top quality host but he is not a pundit. Do you ever listen to football weekly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheKingObv 6,151 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 James richardson is a top quality host but he is not a pundit. Do you ever listen to football weekly?Aye, I didn't actually mean as a pundit, but a host. It's just when you see idiots like Crooks actually getting on TV at all, you have to feel for Richardson.And yes I do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
papaguy51 883 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Richardson must have offers for TV jobs coming in regulary, I think he's just genuinely happy and very well paid in his current role(s).Patrick Barclay is another top drawer pundit. In fact, merely labelling him a pundit is quite disrespectful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GabrielTomato 24,247 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I said earlier tonight I really like Iain Dowie. Really knows his stuff, I only watched about 5 minutes of discussion before the CL games tonight and he put Phil Thompson in his place a few times. Hope to see more of him.

I would love to see much more of him and Robbie Savage as a pairing as their humility and knowledge is a joy. I also think that BBC Scotland should have more of Kenny Sheils on Sportscene as his enthusiasm simply shines through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
