One of the most impressive has been HRK. :shock:

Articulate, doesn’t talk in cliches, calm and confident. Impressive. Should find it easy to get a placement when his playing days are over.

Royal Rother Don’t like her voice particularly (sounds like Clive Allen) but she contributes at least as much as some of the blokes they have on doing the job.

Think the voice is the issue, not the knowledge. There's some really good female pundits, but they just don't translate well into commentary, imooc.

I notice Emma Haye`s hasn`t done a game since the other day when she just couldn`t shut the fcuk up, maybe ITV saw what was so blindingly obvious.

Well, unlike many other pundits she actually has a fairly big job to do elsewhere.

How good would have last night been with Barry Davies or David Coleman leading the commentary.

I may have said this before but I think too many commentators seem to have a list of "Wolstenholme" moments prepped, completely missing the point that his was completely spontaneous.

Pretty withering assessment of Matterface's semi-final here, Football365 argues he should be replaced by Tyldesley for the final.

My only current beef with commentary is the one who pronounces Sterling's first name as 'rAheem' rather than 'R'heem'

That was a fun read.

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought his aeroplane references right before kick off were really weird. Seriously, what the oxf*rd was that about?

He has been inside of Natalie Sawyer so Matterface will always hold that over us but he is just terrible at his job. He must know it too.

That's the sentiment of that article I linked to. That his weird and tenuous links and cringey scripts are desperate attempts to recreate the quotes that come out of proper commentators naturally.
