Well he was FROM Manchester

Funnily enough I agree about Collymore - for a bloke who I'd always marked down as a tool, he's made me think again. I also like Dury and.....unfashionably, Lawrenson. Green's a cliche, Motson was well well past his sell buy date and MOTD crew are generally far too chummy and close to the players IMO, although Dixon shows some promise.

Chiles great on MOTD 2 but not so good on ITV so far but his panel don't help him.


Beglin - too critical of players and dull

Green - too critical of players, referees, managers, traffic, weather etc etc was much better years ago

Collymore - shouts too much and if you followed his opinions over the course of a season he always contradicts himself


Enjoy listening to Pearce (now he has toned down) John Murray and John Campion is OK - and Nevin and Marcotti.


Still enjoy listening to Jimmy Armfield - he's comfy, warm, reassuring, like listening to the football with your grandad sat by the fire. Like Peter Jones and Bryan Butler he'lll be missed when he's gone.


Neville has done TV before and was pretty good although surprise, suprise he didn't always know when to shut up.

Murphy, spot on! esp Arnfield.


Just to add about Colin Murray. I did my utmost to dislike him, professional kopite etc... but unfortunately I think he's really good, asks questions from the fans' perspective. The Friday night prog on 5 live with Nevin and Groves is fantastic, a breadth of fresh air.


On tele though he seems intent on being slightly irreverent, probably to make his mark, definitely better on radio, for now.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
