Peter Drury replaces Martin Tyler on Sky Sports

[Keeper!]

Nail on the head with a hammer. The quality of radio commentary is now far superior to TV

Always has been to be fair, to commentate on the radio is a far greater skill than tv.

Did I read on here that he did the 10-1?

The 10-1, the Bradford promotion game and when we lost to Halifax in the FA Cup in 1980!

Commentators on tv sport often talk too much, one of the greatest commentators of all time, the great , late Richie Benaud often had periods of silence, but the action and pictures told the story and that's what made him so special.

After our takeover Darke who is a Pompey fan was asked what would be his football dream. You would think, Portsmouth to win the League, Cup, get in Europe, but no, it was for City to get relegated under Mark Hughes, he hides it quite well but the constant snide digs are obvious to our fans.

Didn't know that, what a twat of man he is

That's him alright.

I once went to Hillsboro in 1978 when big jack was there 3rd Division, one of the loudest chants of the day was “the Wednesday hate Martin Tyler” funny how 40 plus years later I now understand. Clearly a twat at Yorkshire TV I’m guessing he had aligned himself to Leeds

Darke getting stick off City fans re his constant mentions of how much our team cost....



Check the replies. Also, we were never in the top 4 last night.

Tyler was awful yesterday. Tried to protect Kane, calling it a ‘self-induced slip’. He actually exclaimed ‘Oh No!’ when wolves scored. MTIAC
