JoeLatics Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 The guy's an idiot, I think he just makes up half the stuff he spouts!

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 He's not a bad pundit - he just doesn't know anything beyond the Championship. He's much better on the radio, when you can't see that he's constantly referring to his researcher-written notes. Bring back Gavin Holy Roller Peacock!

opinions4u Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I thought his FiveLive commentary on a Latics match last season (it may well have been Charlton away) was one of the funniest I've heard. "I just can't believe how big Sean Gregan is", he mused, "he's immense in more than just a fottballing way". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 The whole show is second rate. Top two clash and hardly a mention. Fawning over Posh, Barry Fry....who he once lost £3500 to on way to a game!!! WTF. Carlisle "wont be far off" ..... utter garbage. AS for "When I managed Weymouth" hes a Southern biased BIG club idiot of the highest order. His gambling well publicised, downright muppet. Played 1000+ games maybe but still an idiot who cant even get a hair cut nearly right. Meh. Pundits are often each to their own, but I'd say calling Claridge a 'BIG club idiot' is as wide as the mark as you can get. See the Grauniad reports on lower division players (Eardley for instance) he used to do. Obviously the bigger clubs will get more airtime on the telly, otherwise its ratings would go through the floor quicker than a Stockport fan. As for the gambling and his hair cut, well, let he without sin, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've been coming out with some corkers of late! County are going out of the league unless something happens before the end of August. Little sign of investment from the new owners.

LaticsChris Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Steve Claridge is without doubt the most useless pundit on television. Almost every other thing he says is utter tosh and he struggles to string comprehensible sentences together. I'd rather Leroy Rosenior was on every week, and he's not much cop either. I emailed this to Lizzie at the BBC but she didn't read it out for some reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 +1. With Crooks and Mark Bright joint second. I'd have said Lawrenson, but he has improved since he stopped talking football and just concentrated on cracking jokes. Mark Bright seems to just go the long way around saying nothing. Crooks is toss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentleman Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 A 'rant a day' section from Mick McCarthy would improve most TV programmes tenfold. In fact, can't he replace Jonathan Ross on a Friday night chatshow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prendy_1984 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 We're discussing worst pundits and nobody has mentioned Jim Beglin.

beag_teeets Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 The whole show is terrible, it doesn't need all 3 presenters, doesn't need any really, just show the goals. Don't know why they read fan's emails out either, all they read are the ones that say "manager X should go" or "team X be promoted this season" which don't add anything to anything else.

Everything he says is complete bollocks, the sooner he has a terrible accident and loses the ability to talk the better I'm so glad that someone agrees with me. He is without doubt the worst, but for some others with a similar pedigree, pick at random any member of the ITV football coverage team.

Don't know why they read fan's emails out either, all they read are the ones that say "manager X should go" or "team X be promoted this season" which don't add anything to anything else. All they need is a decent anchor (Manish is terrible, always stuttering and looking at the wrong camera) then they could show more of the action: more missed chances, replays of some goals, maybe more soundbites from the managers. Or alternatively they could have three shows on simultaneously all accessible via the red button. You could press red and choose whether to watch the Championship, League One or League Two show. If you wanted to watch the other goals you could get them on iPlayer later on. That way fans would be happier with their clubs' share of the airtime & each show could have a studio guest that is relevant to that league, such as a manager or former/experienced player. There we are, problem solved. The BBC would be a million times better if I worked there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
