Name the worst Co-commentator you've ever heard.
Brian Marwood's performance tonight was woeful but I'll kick off by naming and shaming Robbie Earle.

Would it not be quicker (and easier) to name any co-commentator that is any good???
I can't think of any that I particularly like! :sigh:
Tony Gale can fuck right off.
Tony Gale can fuck right off.
God yes.
I can't stand most of the pundits on Sky at the minute even Jeff Stelling likes having a pop at Liverpool.
Tony Gale, Brian Marwood, Charlie fuck face, Andy Gray, Matt Le Tiss (he called Rafa deluded on Saturday) Tony Cottee and Richard Keys all need to be burned at the stake.
Kenny Samson is dreadful.
Brian Marwood is awful.
Andy Townsend talks like he actually won things during his career.
Oh and that drunk Paul Merson as well I can't stand him. His fat head is on the box a fair bit at the minute.
I quite like Merson.
I can't stand the toothless gimp.
I like Graham Taylor these days on radio 5, other than that can't think of any I really feel bring much to the table. I guess Jimmy Arnefield's knowledge of every player over 7 in the country is useful but he is bit bumbling.
Generally Co-commentators/summarisers seem to be a waste of space.
Graham Taylor is a surprisingly excellent summariser.

I don't mind Taylor he comes accross as a decent bloke.

David Platt.
Below average footballer, terrible manager and even more appalling co-commentator. His is not a voice suitable for any medium of spoken communication...

I quite liked his summarising in Istanbul with R5 Live. I won't agree that he's a decent bloke though.

Yeah - I suppose it would :D
I quite like Alan Smith. Surprisingly.

I like Pleat, Taylor is OK most of the time and Alan Smith is quite good. I used to like Niall Quinn (though did he only do studio comments?). Pat Nevin usually isn't too bad and that bloke who summarises on Serie B for Eurosport is entertaining and seems reasonably well-informed.
The rest should be strung up by their Colemanballs.
Incidentally I've just caught Sky's 1 hour edit of last night's game (I was there for Alonso's wonder strike you see :D) and Marwood's inability to see Scott Parker's playacting once again reveals his nastily xenophobic streak.
To be honest the general level of xenophobia and blatant bias when it comes to diving and other forms of cheating such as shirt pulling is pretty shocking in almost all english commentators.

David Pleat just waffles on about nothing...tries to make himself sound important and knowledgeable by using a large vocabulary...what a knob!

I know Mike Ingham isn't a co-commentator, but does he get on anyone's tits like he does mine? When he's doing his reports on the state of football, particularly the England team, he has such a dire tone like he's talking about the imminent outbreak of war, famine or something else of real importance. For god's sake man. It's just a game.
i dont mind townsend actually after the chelsea semi for the cl he was full of praise for the team and the supporters saying how much we deserved it which kinda suprised me.
saying that i fucking hated him when he played for the republic. :D
I agree I don't mind Townsend, all the rest can fuck right off :). Only one I might say is any good, and I say this purely for his knowledge of the game is Andy Gray. Think him and Tyler are the best pair of commentators around at the moment, but they don't often get a game together these days.
