The 'where are they now?' files

[Buzzo]

I thought he was an absolute nightmare for years. His bitchy, eye rolling sarcasm always totally at odds and distracting in the context of the game he was describing.

And, where do these guys get off with this 'job for life' mentality? Not prepared to change at all whilst sticking to the same tired schtick no matter what, and then massively get the hump when an organisation decides to move them on as society progresses.

Welcome to the real world lads the rest of us have been having to identify, acknowledge, change and adapt to survive for years.

Anyway, he was a very entertaining pundit and an amazing player. His dower and facetious attitude to punditry was the perfect antidote to the dead eyed corporate blandness of most of his peers.

Imo, it was for a while, then became incredibly tedious and tiresome. His co-commentaries and punditry, for years, gave the distinct impression he'd rather be anywhere else. So **** off then mate, no-one's forcing you.

Although in his last year or two of work, I'd kind of come full circle and started to enjoy his sighing world-weariness again.

His comments are a joke though, predictably laying into wokeness. Bore off grandad.

Lawro is in the Sundays 'playing the race card' and moaning about the BBC getting rid of him because society is woke.

I have some sympathy.

Not being able to say "(defensive) wall" after Diana died is so bonkers, if I hadn't seen it in the paper I might have concluded it was a Shaggy edit

Rhian Brewster with a double for England Under 21’s & we win it 2-0. It’s been a dry spell in front of goal for him since he left us.

[Exiled_red]

Didn't he score precisely one goal for us and it was a flying bicycle kick/volley from the edge of the box against someone like West Ham?

According to Wikipedia he scored 2, but this is the one you are talking about

I like to think if his dad came back to Scotland and said in the pub his name was Kwatez he'd get the same treatment that American kid did in the video where he pronounces Edinburgh wrong.
