You said that about Eddie & Stevo, and look how that's turned out.
Personally I'll miss Stevo, sure he regurgitates the same old platitudes, but the other night when there was a bit of a fracas he came out with something like "There's more handbags than a Moroccan Bazaar" he still manages to make me chuckle.
I just hope Eddie & Co don't make too much of his retirement on G.F. night, ultimately he's just a bit player & it shouldn't detract from the main event - but it probably will.

| Whilst his passion for RL cannot be questioned and he does have his occasional funny moments, so does my dad, but I wouldn't have him anywhere near the Sky commentary team. Stevo should've been replaced a long time ago.
His role alongside Eddie (who should be the host/commentator) should be to offer the viewers insight into the game, highlight little things they may have missed, explain tactical decisions - basically what Wellsy does.
But what we get is a bloke who offers nothing apart from one-liners and bluster, no insight, he doesn't understand half the rules and helps take the commentary team off on tangents about issues away from the match being played.

| We need to get an Aussie as one of the two main commentators. No need for two broad northern accents like Tez and Baz on together either, it just drags the game back to the stereotype. Give them two their own little slot of interviewing players before the game or whatever but keep them away from the box.
Carney plus someone else new who is decent in the box, nobody else. There are two many voices spouting nonsense right now it makes your head hurt. Clarke and Wells doing the pre/post match analysis and Baz and Tez kept to larking about with the players in sketches and interviews.Cummins - get rid just no need. This is a real chance for SKY to sort out the staleness they have with their coverage so i hope they take it.

Equally, he suggested that a player would have been in touch if had bigger feet, then went on to describe him as Mr Stubby Toe Man; so it veers between minor amusement to major league cringe.
I shan't miss him - it's time for a change.

As a one off, that would be superb; most RL commentaries are littered with Partridge moments anyway, so he'd slot right in.

As a replacement for Eddie, definitely. Not sure he'd work as Stevo's replacement though.
They probably won't even bother replacing him tbh, the commentary box already seems a bit crowded to me. Some games can have Eddie, Stevo, Terry, Barrie and Phil all chirping in at some stage. Plus we have Cummings in there too just to add an extra bit of twaddle.

To be fair I think sky will go out their way to give him a big send off.

| Carney takes himself too seriously. Needs someone with a personality for sure, because the current crop don't cut it for me...
