Peter Drury replaces Martin Tyler on Sky Sports

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Wonder if Drury will still be doing the NBC/Peacock commentary for us across the pond now or would it not be in his contract now? By far the best one out there and he would be sadly missed if he is not on any more.

Get back to watching rounders and that thing with the brown bouncy ball.

Geoff Shreeves gone. The cull is well and truly underway at Sky.

Pity Spit boy and rat boy aren't part of it

Apparently he will still be lead commentator for NBC's coverage, so I assume he'll just be doing the one game per weekend for them

If only that could be true!
Shreeves was made out to be this legend when really he was an appalling interviewer.
How important ? was his standard opening question. Such an annoying little shit.
Back on topic. Sorry to see Drury leave NBC. He was fantastic with Dixon and Le saux.

I don't wish ill on him but he was a bit of a tit. Imagine you've just got home from a bad day at work only for him to thrust a mic in your face and fire out the long winded waffle he did straight after games. Surprised he never got lamped. I'm sure he'll float back up from the s bend in the future.

Shreeves follows up with a question recalling a previous match/result and then asking the player "Does this [scenario/drubbing] give you Extra motivation?"

Every.single.time.

I hate gary cottrill that west country mangle worzel fker with the Watford Gap between his teeth, his party piece was calling us man shitty .

Hope that straw dog escapee gets the shits live on air, for every interview he does, for evermore!

 

[Blackley_Blue]

Shreeves gone??? Oh no!

Who's going to tell us 'from the touchline' that a player has a suspected broken leg... 5 mins after we've watched 10 different angled replays of said player quite obviously breaking his leg??

Really hope all this culling is the beginning of the end for these red top cunts
