At Warrington the guy got on my nerves.

Having just watched Boots n All and his expert analysis I must admit to been quite impressed with the way he explained through the certain plays from Rd1.

He really got my nerves too. Missed Boots n All tonight. I'll watch a replay during the week.

He does sound like a walking coaching manual at times, "Defenders A, B and C are all on the short side", or some such. His words should have accompanying diagrams.
Good analysis mind but he does make me chuckle at times.

Was always impressed with Tony Rea's analysis in the same slot last season and Cullen seemed to pick up the baton competently enough.

I'd quite like a bit more time devoted to that sort of analysis rather than the inane drivel spouted by Stevo et al.

He started off a bit as you say coaching manual style until Eddie asked him to repeat in laymans terms.

After that he preached some interesting stuff.

Just watched it and it was a pretty good analysis. I wonder if it's because he had more time to pick things out and think about how he was going to explain them rather than having to come up with analysis on the spot? Either way, it's by far the best thing he's done on Sky's coverage. Hopefully it'll continue.

I would much rather listen to Cullen than Martin Offiah.

During the highlights show on Sunday evening Offiah was awful, he stuttered his way through a 10 minute slot and clearly didn't even know most of the players.

Cullen analysised teams performances and came across quite well, we all know he likes the sound of his own voice but that apart I thought he did well.

I mostly enjoy listening to Cullen, as he is entertaining, and knows what he's talking about. Offiah is little more than a boring, droning irritant, seemingly just there for his name. Surely he ought to make an effort to appear up-to-date with SL players etc?

Other than "Look, we've got Offiah on the panel", what does he add? To me, he does nothing more than trot out stock cliches, and give banal answers to full toss questions. And he calls a certain Leeds player "Burrows", which is embarrassing. (Mind you, Cullen's been known to make that rick too).

PS How good has Barrie Mac got at this broadcasting lark? Sharp as a tack, very witty and knowledgeable, closely involved in and clearly in love with the game. More please.

I would agree that Cullen is better than Offiah, but that's not difficult is it?

Cullen just comes across a bit "Ron Manager" with his mannerisms and as a result I can't take him seriously.

As a result of which, when he is analytical, incisive, thoughtful and entertaining, like last night, you miss it.
