Sutton's whole schtick is to get under people's skin though, he intentionally sets out to annoy people with his over the top views. It's like a gimmick he has, he's been doing it in Scotland for a while now, on BT Sports and so on. It's best just to ignore him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porkchopcash Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 It’s so painfully cringe worthy when on Soccer Saturday you have them all bellowing out “he’s hit the beans”  “DESMOND” still watch it though as it’s an easy watch to follow your bets.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted September 20, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 20, 2018 I think Jeff Stelling is affable enough that it remains watchable. If they had a cunty host it would be death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame that prick Kamara for it to be honest, he was one of the first to become a "character" with his catchphrases and his shitty little moustache.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted September 20, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 20, 2018 Jeff Stelling's really good. He knows his stuff, he's a great presenter and it's just a shame he's saddled with at least three complete idiots weighing him down. Le Tissier is alright but they need to find someone else to replace the other three. I was watching that BT goals thing last nightr with James Richardson for a bit and it's easily the best thing I've seen from them. A really good idea with pundits who actually know their stuff. In comparison to Sky's similar stuff, it's streets ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I've long wondered why James Richardson has never been picked up by Sky, or given a role to play in the presentation of English football, as he's a class act. He went quite a while doing sod all during the break between Channel 4's coverage of Italian football and eventually showing up on Setanta/BT Sports, didn't he?

David Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Just now, TildeGuy~! said: He was doing The Champions League coverage on BT Sports on Tuesday Yeah, he's doing quite well with BT now, but for quite a while he wasn't on any screens at all, or was doing some obscure European football show on Setanta. I'd have thought that someone of his quality would have been a prime candidate for something on the BBC or Sky Sports, especially when you see some of the dross they have had presenting over the years.

I'm a bit in love with Julien Laurens... Horncastle's voice for me. Like melting butter. The missus doesn't like looking at him but loves listening to him. I always like when Laurens and Horncastle have Raphael Honigstein with them. They have very good chemistry as a group of pundits and bounce off each other very well. There is quite a few podcasts knocking about with one or more of them acting as pundits but if it interests I can highly recommend Golazzo with Richardson, Horncastle and Gabriele Marcotti as being very good on Italian football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 The other thing about them all is that they all seem lovely. James Horncastle seems like the nicest guy ever, and reminds me of Sully from Monsters Inc, in the nicest way possible. Compare them to the absolute pricks on Sky, and there's no contest.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted September 21, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 21, 2018 Graeme Souness cant stand Pogba can he? It's quite frightening. Pogba's an acquired taste, and he's definitely worthy of a lot of the shit he gets from critics (and his own manager and supporters), but fucking hell? Souness looks he's got IBS when saying his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
