I find myself being increasingly unable to tolerate the absolute fuckwittery of commentators, not just in City games where you obviously are tense so think they are out to get you (which some are!) but in games in general. The standard is so fucking low and they just come out with a constant stream of utter shite. They don't seem to do any research on the players and a lot don't seem to even know the rules of football. They just trot out endless cliche's and bullshit that they've made up, then decide to then draw random conclusions based on their made up bullshit?
I frequently want to mute the game just to make them go away, but without the sounds of the game it loses something. I've watched games listening to foreign commentary I didn't understand, simply because it was less annoying than the English commentary I could unfortunately understand! Am I alone in this? If you had the option to watch live games without commentary, but still with the crowd sounds and sounds of the game, would you watch it? I know I would.
