Re: Talksport now

Brian Moore is superb and far too intelligent for Brazil and Talkshite.

Been saying this for months, deserves his own show I feel and I always try and listen when he's on. Couple of months ago during the Suarez transfer request story he explained how football contracts work and the law etc superbly. Was all ears for three hours. Knowledgeable about a lot of sports, unbiased and unafraid to speak his mind.

Brian, I urge you to get your own show if your offered one! Anyone remember this great piece of commentary?

Not being a Rugby fan I hadnt heard that before. Made me laugh!

As a Welsh rugby fan I have loads of time for the BM lad..
hated him at times as England's most combatitive hooker

but as a pundit , a very sharp mind and usually able to keep up the banter and critical analysis with Eddie Butler and sure as hell better then the bitter biased sniping of Guscott & Dawson (i'd include the idiot Inverdale , but I'm still not convinced that he isn't an animated waxwork)

BTW has anyone else noticed how desparately R5L 's Chris 'Robbo' Robertson wants to be English ?

Re: Talksport now

Now I do agree with you here and have put previously on this thread that Moore is brilliant but what was he on this morning when they had the guy on talking about CSKA's racism punishment? He kept arguing with the bloke and going back over his point about statutes and who was to blame and asking him what was going to be done about it even though the guy was actually agreeing with him and had answered his question 3 or 4 times!

Lord Ousley made a number of points which were questioned.

He said that CSKA hadn't admitted their fault and I asked how Uefa could practically extract this - which he couldn't answer. The fact is that they can't under their new regulations and, to a certain extent, it doesn't really matter as long as they are forced to take measures to prevent it happening again.

He then went on to say the Uefa protocol did not solve the problem and that the referee should have done something, quoting an English example, which was irrelevant as different regulations apply.

I put the following to him, which he appeared not grasp, hence the repetition -

1. The protocol was followed. The referee having been informed then informed the stadium announcer, who should have made an announcement.
2. The said person refused to make any announcement saying that he hadn't heard anything. The referee did what was required, the announcer didn't and has been removed.
3. I said that he could, by all means, campaign for the protocol to be changed but that his criticism of the referee was wrong and a Uefa investigation had cleared him.
4.The fact was that the protocol could not be said to be defective just because it didn't stop the abuse and solve the situation because it wasn't properly applied. Had it been so and not worked you could then make that conclusion but not before.
5. He then went on to talk about how many Uefa officials were present and that they should have done something about it - the fact is that the protocol should have taken care of this, to the extent that it could work.

I agreed that the punishment was insufficient but that is not the same thing as saying the referee failed, which he didn't or that the protocol didn't work; we don't know that because it wasn't applied properly.

Why do you support Chelsea when you come from 'Alifax?

Before gang to secondary school I played and loved football and though only Halifax played for the town team. When I went to secondary school it played rugby and that was that, though I continued to play every lunchtime.

I supported Halifax Town and went regularly from the age of six until mid-teens when I was playing every Saturday and couldn't go.

I saw Town knock Man U out of the Watney Cup and bet City in the FA cup when Paul Hendrie scored. They were hy7pnoitsed by the magician Romark before the game and Malcolm Allison complained he was spat at.

After the age of 17 until I retired from rugby I played every Saturday and it wasn't possible to watch, though I played in and won the University 5-a-side competition. By this time Town had dropped out of the leagues and I only saw a couple of live games, though on of them was Hillsborough. I did however watch anything I could on TV and continued to read widely about the game.

When I moved to London, where I still am, I got sent off in my final season (2x in 18 years isn't so bad.) I was living in Parsons Green and a mate took me to Stamford Bridge, which I really enjoyed. When I retired I promised that wouldn't watch any club games for a year because I didn't want to be tempted to return or regret my decision to stop. Instead I bought a season ticket at the Bridge and have done for the last 16 years- so I was there before the big money came in. I watch as many games as I can at home subject to work and a few away, including going to Stockholm for the Cup-Winners' Cup.

I have always loved football and the notion that you cannot play one sport and be keen on another is strange although I get, 'stick to egg-chasing occasionally.

As others have said, they need to give you your own show; by far the most interesting person on there when they let you on.

You might be ok next week as the rags have Fulham away so Alan will be hot and hard for wee Davey, but like I say, keep an eye on him when they lose, he has a tendency to get very needy.

Re: Talksport now

BMs commentary is a lesson to all co-commentators. Passionate, knowledgeable, intelligent, unafraid to speak their mind and unibiased are all qualities he has and the complete opposite to what we get with football E.g Michael Owen.

I don't mind a commentator supporting a side, look at Jiffy when he commentates on Wales. It's pricks like John Inverdale constantly using England as a reference point to everything he talks about during the six nations.
