CB Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 2 minutes ago, mathematics said: I have thoroughly enjoyed McCoist's chat this WC, almost as much as I have hated Lawrenson's. I've noticed other commentators trying (and failing) to 'Ally up' their chat. There's quite a movement, not just from John & Jane Q Tweeter, but from some inside itv sport to have Champion & McCoist call the final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it definitely won't be Lawrenson? Brilliant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Mowbray and whoever versus Clive Tyldesley & whoever. Depending on Wimbledon, you should be able to press red and go no comms on the bbc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompey Repatriated Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Can you imagine Tyldesley if England got to final? Mark Lawrenceson should be made to watch reruns of VAR decisions ad infinitum with fans chanting White Stripes playing on a continuous loop a la Clockwork Orange! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was there last wooden goalposts FFS?! It was always a stupid synonym anyway. I had a mate at school who was convinced that the woodwork only related to the join of crossbar and post, i.e. where the “carpentry” had taken place..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Doctor Posted June 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) Regretful bout of laddishness in this thread - bad thing itself and detracts from the main point at issue namely what a god-awful pundit Glen Hoddle is. Last night his state the bleeding obvious comments (bit too close to the keeper etc) managed to miss the bleeding obvious point that no one wanted to win. Problem remains that Glen cannot deviate from repeating precisely what we have all just seen in case he reveals his true identity i.e barking mad. I caught a bit of Carry on Spying the other day. Bernard Cribbins was undercover as a Turkish belly dancer. Poor Glen trying to pass as normal in the land of the sane is an even greater stretch.

He had 10-15 minutes after his goal but other than that he was a big disappointment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
