And without wishing to be condescending or anything I think that Matt has come a long way in his commentary skills over the years. There's certainly nothing in it between him and people like Paul walker And 2 nil too. Get in
As someone who worked with Paul Walker for several years, I agree; Matt's commentary is good. Don't tell him though, it'll only go to his head:wink:
A compliment from SuperTyke is worth about 20 compliments from anyone else! Well done, great commentary last night. The result help of course, but still great commentary!
Looking to have the full match on Player around midday. Plenty of other bits already on our twitter/facebook/youtube for those interested.
I know this might not really be a popular request or anything or even used by literally anyone at all but with the quality of the full match replays I watched wolves on my TV and it was cracking. But obviously I already knew the score which admittedly somewhat spoils the viewing for me. Do you reckon there would be much demand for the replays without the score in the title of the video so that people can avoid the score and watch the games in full with the element of surprise still like people used to for match of the day or do you think that in the internet world there isn't much call for it?
I've been wanting this for absolutely ages. I logged onto another team's Player last season (can't remember who's now) as our match replay wasn't on (before we added the commentary so it wouldn't matter which version I watched) and they didn't have the score, just both team's names. I've considered getting the husband to start it on full screen so I wouldn't know but it bothered me that he'd know the result first.
I'm a bit new to player but would you be able to get from opening the page to viewing the video without seeing the score anywhere else on the screen if the video itself didn't include it?
Bit of a strange request. Are you saying you could dodge the result for sometimes over 24 hours? As for an answer, I'll speak with my colleagues and get their opinions.
Maybe you can get the commentary team to cut away to a Fowls match just before a goal, so we can listen to the entire match without knowing the result?
Just to echo that , I think it's good commentary . Player has always worked well for me....until the last few weeks . The problem now is the commentary is several minutes out of sync . Last night the goals were shown on the scores page and the match stats page about three of four minutes before they were commented on ....any chance you could run the issue by the tech guys plz .
That was why I asked if you thought there would be much demand for it. I honestly don't know if I could dodge the result for so long but I'm not sure if that is because I couldn't do it or simply because I've never needed to in the past. To be honest it doesn't really bother me one way or the other I just thought it may be something that some people would use but no idea how many people that is.
If I know I'm going to be busy on Saturday and have to miss the match (very rare but can happen, or in the instance of my dad who works some Saturdays) then it would be good to watch the match 'live' on Sunday without knowing the result. As you say, it would mean avoiding looking for the score but that's doable.
I don't see why not. I have a bookmark straight to Player so I wouldn't need to see it on the main site and as long as a video isn't named as it (or it in the description) then possibly. There's a good chance that you might see it in one of the desciptions of the other videos but you can't help that.
You are absolutely fantastic and I associate you as much with the club as any of the players or managers we've had in my life time.
Rubbish, I used to enjoy the suspense while the opposition were taking a set piece and we listened to commentary on the Fowls taking a goal kick.
