Pilko Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Man, i'm bored of MOTD punditry. "Where's that defense gone?" Swell analysis. Dixon tries to mask it with an irritated tone that almost passes over some kind of footballing credibility. It's actually just inane nothingness. Yawnariffic. Lee Dixon is a hugely boring cunt. By far my least favourite of the MoTD punditry pool; Shearer is merely boring and a bit dim. Unless they do the unthinkable and bring some new blood in, it should be Hansen and Lawro every week. Lawro is irritating as fuck when he's co-commentating (nearly as bad as Mark 'Poor' Bright), but I quite like him as a studio pundit. Matty Holland would be a good addition imo, he's been interesting every time I've seen him. I'd say the same for Robbie Savage, who's class, but sadly he can barely string a coherent sentence together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see Graheme Swann and Lee Newton on Soccer AM this morning? Savage, Swann and Newton would be the best line up for MOTD analysis ever!

Dave Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 None of them have anything to say, Shearer probably being the worst offender. There's no controversy, virtually no opinion or anything. Say what you like about Andy Gray and his over the top bumming of the top clubs but at one point I used to actually really enjoy his analysis (on the proper shows, not just during a normal game). It was actually interesting to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shaun Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Graham looks good. He'll get goals. Always on the end of things. Reminds me of Best. Much better than Best, imo. Say that when he scores a hattrick in the premier league. Everyone was taking the mick out of me when I was bumming Graham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you like about Andy Gray and his over the top bumming of the top clubs but at one point I used to actually really enjoy his analysis (on the proper shows, not just during a normal game). It was actually interesting to watch. Yeah, I agree. Souness rightly takes a hammering for being a shit manager, but the guy is an outstanding pundit - because he's not scared to offer a controversial opinion. I'm not saying that he always goes against the grain for the sake of it, because he doesn't, but when he thinks something he says it, and that's what you want really. Match of the Day's lot don't offer that. I also wish Lineker had more to do than read stats and make shitty wisecracks - he's wasted in the current role. Sky generally have better teams of pundits all round imo. Apart from Nasser, who always was a miserable boring wanker, they have always had a good cricket punditry team too. Much prefer coverage of the darts on Sky too. BBC's coverage is pretty wank these days, of nearly everything sporting (certainly that I watch, anyway). As I type this, that boring dullard Manish and everyone's favourite day-tripping cunt Clem have just popped up on Ridiculously Late Goals show to completely prove my point about the Beeb. Even ITV's coverage of the lower leagues was better; Matt Smith at one ground with one camera doing the links between matches. None of this stupid half-arsed analysis and no mentally oversized hangar to present it from, and especially no texts and fucking emails. Was even worth getting up Sunday morning and watching adverts - I preferred it to this waste of time on now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's properly patronising and aimed at morons who know nothing about the game. I think the cricket coverage sorts itself out, because unlike football, the cricket stars of the past aren't rich, so need to do the TV piece. And cricketers are normally a bit brighter than footballers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 BBC is too kiddy friendly, the way they went on about the Barton Torres incident last year was the most pathetic thing I have ever seen on tv. I still miss MOTD and glad it's back They could do with some balls on the show, gets some twats on. The dog befriender Keane would probably be quite good, especially next to Shearer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
