GaryWood34 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 He was playing Bingo tonight to really piss us all of wasn't he. He does it every away match. He even managed to get 1966 in. Why does he do our matches? Can we get rid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Russell's Lovechild Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Worst commentator ever, seriously. Don't know any other that constantly repeats the same facts, every match, about four/five times during the match. He always sounds like he's willing teams to score against us, just before they do so he can get the 'it was all going so well for the tartan army' bullshit.

Malfaetheburgh Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 He’s a total bellend, takes delight in undermining our team, typical sky tv pish, only country in the world that has other countries commentating on their games, can’t stand listening to this sanctimonious prick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I was a bit more annoyed they didn’t even have a dedicated studio panel for our game, they just had a player from each of the home nations to talk about all the games. Having said that, if they were all called Chris with a K, we’d be aswell with James Collins and the Irish boy. A slight tangent, but I question the choice of Hayley McQueen as their Scottish anchor. I can’t imagine someone from MUTV is the best person available to present Scottish football, if they want to have a female that’s completely fine, they can even be English, but I wonder whether she is just ticking a box, rather being the best person for the role?

AlfieMoon Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Yeah, it's dreadful coverage from Sky. As I've stopped going to as many games in recent years it is really starting to become a pain in the tits having to listen to them. The commentary team have been around for far too long and need freshened up. The Sky studio and combined analysis team covering other home nations is just cheapness and crap. The anchor is rubbish as well. I coughed up for a one day NowTv pass for last night as I refuse to give Sky recurring money. I think I'll go to the bother of heading for the pub in future and maybe put some headphones in so I don't need to listen to the crap.

vanderark14 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Crocker and Provan, I can't think of a worse pairing to commentate on Scotland games in my life time. I know Liam McLeod isn't everyone's cup of tea due to who he supports but he is unbelievably passionate about scottish football. He wuld be perfect for a scotland match commentator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thelma Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 We have a competition tae guess when he'll make the first negative comment. 1. In the tunnel 2. On the pitch before the national anthems 3. First 5 minutes. One and two have always been the clear winners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like him, presume OF fans have a problem with him as he’s not Tam Boyd or Derek Johnstone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally don’t mind Crocker that much. Eilidh Barbour will be presenting for Sky next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapofGlencoe Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 The whole set up was weird to me last night. Cut to a studio with a random Welsh and Irish guy too. I don't have sky so not sure if that main event thing is normal but took away from what was supposed to be a Scottish event surely. We've got our real "national" commentators on the radio and a bunch of randoms with a fleeting interest in Scotland on the tv. Surely not beyond the wit of man to have had folk that give a monkeys on the tv! Before anyone pipes in. It's not the nationality I found weird. Tom English packie Bonner, Russell Latapy or whoever would have mad more sense. No way they would lump all the "home nations " all together if it was an England game . Anyway agreed on topic, get a Rob Mclean or Mcleod in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine she was picked due to being a Sky employee and who her old man is. In terms of 1966, the c*nts even got a reference to that in during the Nations League final, pointing out if Portugal won it would be the first time a Wolves player had won an international medal since 1966...

bonny78 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) David Attenborough would be my choice “Here we see a team of creatures that rarely leave the safety of their own home.
