    For most things I'd agree but listening to "Lawro" makes me want to hurt myself.

    Not sure if you have access to the "Red Button" but Alan Green and 5Live is available over there.

    For me it was:

    Mowbray: "It's been a real Argentinian takeover"
    Lawrenson: "Better than an Argentinian takeaway"

    He's here all tournament, folks.

    Townsend sometimes irks me with his phrases 'That's a great ball, it really is', 'Messi is a wonderful player, he really is', ' Germany have played well this tournament, they really have' phrases. But apart from that, I don't mind him.

    But Mark Lawrenson is a first class cocky, know-it-all, his way or no way type.
    He really is.

    Mowbray: "Beglia"

    Lawrence: "That was more like Delia".

    Jesus. Although I would rather spend the rest of eternity locked in a room with him than listen to 90 minutes of Clive Tyldsley.

    There's always the French commentary which has the advantage that it's very easy to blank out.

    I've had a bit of a punt on Germany winning in extra time which was a long shot but which is now beginning to get interesting . . .

    I imagine the French commentary would be all abstract and existential

    No, it's the same inane sh*t it's just easier to tune out when your French is as bad as mine.
