Quote El Diablo="El Diablo"Ray French is a genuinely great servant of RL, and deserves the honour as much as anyone from a sport or broadcasting background. He is, I'll admit, a little off the pace now, but I just enjoy having his voice as background noise, because that's what Rugby League commentary sounded like when I was a wee nipper.
I maintain that the man is due some respect.
I'm not the greatest fan of Mr Davies as a commentator, but it should be kept in mind that he is an international in two codes and broadcasts for two codes.
I wouldn't, however, be overly surprised if Sir Kevin gets a gong of some sort after he retires.'"
I just maintain the view that Commentators should be like Players.......If they're past it, then they shouldn't be playing or commentating anymore. I'm sorry it my point seemed disrespectful, it wasn't meant to be.
And as for Davies, I really don't like him because he seems arrogant and sometimes talks out of his "Anus" like Offiah.
I'd prefer some Fresh, Knowledgeable blood from both the BBC and Sky Sports who are completely on the fence, unlike the jokers we have to put up with.
