4MenHadADream 122 Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 He is a hopeless commentator, provides no insight whatsoever and sees it more as a ninety minute exercise in demonstrating how many footballers, coaches and managers he knows personally. The constant referal to people by their first or nicknames only annoys me no end Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The footballers he refers to with nicknames would probably not know he he was or give a second care about him, which is sad. I like the guy a lot, but come on, be proffessional in commentary.

Like the guy and he was a brilliant player, not just for us. But he should realise he's there to do a job, otherwise Sky could just get any punter to do a better job.

He must have a successful theory of the game, but sadly lacking in leadership skills. Thats my opinion anyway, who knows he might disprove my thoughts by becoming a worthy leader at a lowly premiership club. Blackburn for example. Who wouldn't have him as a coach at Rangers for instance ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
