    He's on radio five match commentary too and he's just as bad.

    He's awful. I never watch the FL show because of him, and Manish is just as bad at presenting. Not worth the pain for the usual 1 minute that we get.

    He's worse than awful
    I listened to five minutes of Cardiff West Ham yesterday
    Cringeworthy listening to him arguing with co commentator

    They are terrible, but then so are most of the other "commentators". I watch with the sound off; when the day dawns that I need somebody to tell me about what I'm watching on a football pitch I'll give up. That Motson really gets on my nerves; non-stop blather. Worse than being married.

    Well said, grandfathertyke. I do that as well, and when the missuss comes in from whatever, she'll be like "why is there no sound?" Is is broke or summat, do we need a new telly? etc. etc.

    Why is there no remote for the missuss?

    He's decent on the Monday night club on 5 live but I agree about his commentary, he's awful at that & he's a bit too creepy for TV, his head & hand movements are a bit much

    Just turn the sound down and watch the picture. :) still wish they gave you the option of having crowd noise only.

    Your wind ups are getting shitter DT, I'd give it up as a bad job if I were you. This thread had tumbleweed at the bottom before I thought I'd point this out to you.
