Tim Lovejoy division would tear Match of the Day 2 apart post-Adrian Chiles

[anfieldanfield]

Chiles is good at what he does. He was perfect for MOTD 2.

[Liverpool]

Duncan should start a campaign to get James Corden the job.

[Mike]

Colin Murray will present the BBC 2 World Cup highlights show daily at 2200 BST and has also been announced as the new presenter of Match of the Day 2.

[Shaggy]

Murray's okay, seems a nice bloke, proper Red.

[Baracus]

I like Murray on the Radio 5 Live.

[Imy]

Does that mean Colin Murray will leave football on Five, thus leaving the god awful Collymore and Nevin?

[red g]

Murray's okay, seems a nice bloke, proper Red.

MAte of mine is a mate of his and we watched the Liverpool v Barca game down in london a few years ago......He is a proper red, tattoos to prove it

wont forget that night i was driving around london in a Taxi with the FA cup!! random as you like!!

[Shaggy]

Haha

I've seen him at Anfield a few times, he was often with the lad from Starsailor.

[CJ]

i remember after we won no 5 he was on radio 1 with edith bowman who is a manc lover. he kept going on about a special guest

when the guest arrived it was the european cup.

Murray's not too bad....and a red which helps. Lovejoy or Chapman would have made my blood boil. Richardson would have been the best choice IMO.

Chapman was just on five live t'other week (before 2nd leg vs Benfica) and was spouting off about the £230 million Rafa had spent on his squad and the ridiculously high turnover of players. He was then comparing this figure, unfavourably, to what the other top teams had spent over the same period. When another presenter/reporter asked if when doing his research he'd looked at how many of these players were still there and how much the current squad had cost he couldnt gloss over it quick enough and said he didnt have time.....happy to leave the impression that Rafa had actually spent 230 million on the current squad. I think he's a complete smug **** - can't stand him. Maybe it's just cos he's a scummer.

I like Chiles, remains to be seen whether the ITV curse will strike again and he turns into a ****e presenter overnight.

[Neil Young]

Chapman's a deluded ****. I remember him going on about how everyone in the country would be happy when Forlan finally kneed in his first goal for Man United. Yeah, right.

At least I think it was him. Oh who cares - it was a Man United fan anyway and they're all the same.

Actually quite enjoy listening to Murray on 5Live.

Particularly enjoy his partnership with Pat Nevin. One of the few ex-pro's who's actually able to articulate an opinion.

[squaddie]

Murray's a sound geeza..... Bought me a pint once

True Story

[Rigadon]

He is a Liverpool supporter and had five stars tattooed on his arm when the club won the European Cup for the fifth time.

Good decision although I would have liked AC Jimbo. Murray is fantastic on Fighting Talk and 5 Live Sport. I'm sure he can bring that style with Martin Keown and Mark Bright.
