    Just noticed Boycott, Gough and Moxon all have similiar tones to their speech. Moxon is co-commentator on the cricket and I initially thought it was Goughy trying to be more well spoken. Already thought there were similiarities in Boycott and Gough's voices. Wonder if all of us 'frum tarn' have that tone, especially when trying to put on a TV voice.

    Boycott is from Fitzy,

    I dont think he sounds like Gough at all.

    Thinnk most of us speak in that tone. Although I slur and slang my words a lot more, I prob sound like that when trying to talk proper. I mean not all scousers sound the same but they tend to have same kind of tone?
