In response to your initial observation though, I once met Colin Murray and he is a complete @#%&!.

pretty sure that George Hamilton, who was, maybe still is, their main football commentator is a Northern Irish protestant. anyway it matters £#%&!-all to anyone with even half a brain.

they're taking the piss if they think we believe he's actually there these days, he can't even do his "stadium" voice, he's sat in a studio giving revisionist %@#$&!s. Same as the prat who did the Spurs game... "Hutton has never scored for Spurs before...." 5mins later... "& that's his first for Spurs!" ffs

Murray isn't representative of any demographic. He's just a @#%&!.

I was surprised how complimentary they were last night. I thought they'd be saying we were as shit as them and it was all over, but no.

They even got it bang on about O'Shea too - Torres was never getting anywhere near that ball and as such wasn't denied a goalscoring opportunity.

It's awful.
It's all about the 'bants' ...but bad bants, not good bants.

I think football should be taken seriously & should be discussed & covered seriously, but it's so £#%&!ing throwaway now..so cringeworthy.
The 'old pals act' between the pundits is embarrassing.

It's not perfect on SKY either, but they do a much better job overall.

"Last gasp winner"?? Oh dear :shakehead:

really starting to think that the Beeb don't care about their pundits lack of knowledge, they just have them for the bantz and their 'inside' knowledge. Lineker even asked Shearer how his mate steve harper was on the show, asking if he'd been in touch with him, Shearer didn't have a clue, all he said was 'don't know, i haven't heard anything'. Great insider info there you stinks of piss @#%&!.

I'd rather they had Tiberian and S/Side on there than the £#%&!ing numpties they currently employ.

The annoying thing is they occasionally have a Leonardo, or Klinsmann or Seedorf, someone that knows whereof they speak, and is insightful and worth listening to. So they must know what they are looking for, surely?
