Micah Richards the pundit

[Fordyboy46]

I think his paymasters tell him never to go overboard about City and not rip into certain other teams. It's the only explanation I have how he can be so non critical of the rags, he defends them at every opportunity

 

[SteveP]

Richards is a clown. Having seen his massively embarassing 'WeBuyAnyCar' ads on Sky, I just can't listen to him, so I mute the TV whenever he speaks. Some people will do anything for money.

Look if anybody still thinks Richard’s is in anyway Favourable to us then they’ve not been paying attention or have recently returned from being stranded on a desert island somewhere, he’s an absolute balloon, inane, thick as a brick, ridiculous laugh, with about as much insightfulness on the game of professional football as a tin of spaghetti hoops, he’s a comedy act for people who who find him somehow amusing, he holds no favouritism to us, he’s a known Arsenal fan who also almost exclusively backs the Arsenal/Yoonited/Dipper monopoly in the media & newspapers & they’re sycophantic fans, this shouldn’t require a thread anymore, forget that clown, we’ve got no allies in the former pro’s pundit cartel well strangely Keane despite he’s allegiance actually is far more honest and fair especially concerning us that Richards.

Well put, give me Nedum any day over Micah

Well put, give me Nedum any day over Micah

Nedum is far too articulated and intelligent to be invited on the BBC or Sly Sports.

Broadcasters of that ilk want weak willed and lily livered mouthpieces that will tow the party line.

Nedum is the complete opposite of Richard’s, Intelligent, Articulate, with interesting opinions and views on the game, he’s he has credibility, and even if you don’t agree you know he’s opinions are fair and honest and he’s a Blue, so for all those attributes Sky will never hire him, they’ll stick with Richard’s, Carragher, Sturridge instead, ESPN youtube channel is where you can hear the sense from Nedum.

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Actually thought it wasn’t a red , I’m more perplexed how the scissor tackle on nunes today wasn’t punished, the offence was two footed and out of control.

A similar tackle to Maguire’s by Caicedo (today) didn’t get a red. I’m not sure Caicedo even got a yellow.

 

[Tim of the Oak]

I can take or leave Micah. At least he’s not anti City and has been positive about us on many occasions. He’s laughing all the way to the bank.

I like Nedum but I’m not sure why the two of them are compared so much on here. Nedum’s achilles heel as far as punditry goes is that he was never lifted a title or cup winning team. Not all pundits have been but it certainly helps if you can say you won the League with Yaya, Kun and Tevez etc and you have tales from the dressing room.

He has to get work to pay for those haircuts.

I think I stopped listening to him after his grooming costs outlay admission and when the average Joe Blogg was struggling with day to day living costs.

 

[halfcenturyup]

He has to get work to pay for those haircuts?

I think I stopped listening to him after his grooming costs outlay admission and when the average Joe Blogg was struggling with day to day living costs.

Did you see the after match with Foden where they ended up, of course, discussing haircuts?

Much shouting and ridiculous laughing but Foden said his cost 20 pounds from the same guy he has been going to since he was 8. That's the sort of guy I want to listen to :)

 

[Sk@mcfc]

Don’t want him associated with our club purely because of that stupid advert he’s in makes me want to smash the fucking tele up

 

[Macca77macca]

He is on the BBC! Does final score and MOTD2 regularly

He also covered AFCON on there

 

[Fat Chance]

Richards binned City for the olympics...zab stepped in.

Izzy is a more measured, calmer pundit.

They are all told what the narrative is through the earpiece. The clearest indication of this is listening to Martin Tyler when he worked for Sky and comparing his work for the foreign channels.

...and the change in Drury's commentary since he became the main man.

[Alan Harper's Tash]

If networks wanted proper punditry, they’d look at getting the social media analysts that have the most charisma.

Instead, it’s an old boys club trying to keep up with football whilst hiding their ignorance with bantz.

The clearest ^ ( lols) Richards held his ear-piece with one hand to listen cause he couldnt deal with ratboy at the same time during one of his early punditry showings...then spluttered out a very cheesy ' you know thinking about it' complete opinion reversal...it was nearly comical.
