We watched the second half with the Fivr Live commentary. Downside of that was having to put up with Alan Green for half of the half. But better than Motty.

I had the Radio 5 commentary through the TV. I like Green though, in fact I like all of the R5 commenatators. Who was the summariser - Waddle? I enjoyed him too?

Motson to Lawrenson: Do you think the French goalkeeper should have done better for Hollands second goal?

yep he's useless, think this has been established several times over.
What's getting quite funny is Lawrensen's sly little remarks at him during his (dire) commentaries - 'I'm glad we know that' today when Motty gave his usual pompous approval/opinion etc to a refereeing decision, etc. Sensing a needle there? But yeah, he's absolutely shit. Him and James Allen on the F1.....jesus.

The Holland - France game was the best yet, off the top of my head...
He had Makelele down as a 35 and 37 year old. "A goal made by Chelsea and scored by Arsenal" - On Robbens goal, obviously not realising that Robben plays for Real Madrid. "3-1 to Holland in case you lost count" - erm, theres a great big score in the top left of the screen. For me though the most annoying thing he does is suddenly shout as if theres a clear cut chance and you look up at the screen and the ball is in the centre circle or he yells as you've just gone into another room. You rush back expecting to see a one on one the with goalie, and the attacking player with the ball is near the corner flag, with 2 covering defenders to beat and no one up in support. Surely this has to be his last tournament? I don't know who is worse though, Motson or Clive 'That Night in Barcelona' Tyldesley. |

You all have nothing to complain about, not until you have listened to ESPN coverage

See Rich De's post - he makes his points based on real evidence, it ain't ain't that difficult. It would appear that you are incapable and/or unwilling to attempt to construct any type of opinion. Heaven forbid you should attempt to formulate anything worthy of debate, it's clearly beyond you. The term "one trick pony" springs to mind. Ironic, given your penchant for gambling.

I agree. Considering what we're used to, ESPN has been a real pleasure. My only complaint about Andy Gray is that he keeps on making his point no matter what is happening on the field--but he's an excellent analyst. Smyth is shite of course, but the Scot on with him (Derek Rae?) is a terrific commentator, and Healey is quite good too. I'm amazed we have the euros on ESPN at all--and with no Americans, what bliss!

Motson wants me dead. He hates me. I'm convinced.
I was semi-consciously watching the France - Italy match, nothing remarkable going on until he screamed 'AND TOULALAN WILL TAKE THE FREE KICK!' at the top of his voice for no reason and I almost jumped out of my skin. There wasn't even anything happening. So sorry Motty, you're a legend really.

also lawro and motson were having a go at the ref for stopping the play when a french player was down. He stoped it because he gave advantage and it was a foul. So he couldnt then let italy go and score could he
