That has to be the singularly most incompetent piece of broadcast analysis I've ever heard.

Even more so than the verbal diarrhoea Paul Cullen comes out with every week on Boots & All?

Didn't see Offiah tonight but it must have been a special kind of bad to be worse than it usually is!

How is that 'verbal diarrhoea'? It's competent technical analysis, something that more fans should pay attention to since the majority don't have a clue about the sport.

I'm sorry but "he made a silly play there" and "jumping up stream" along with "they targeted him in this set" isn't competent technical analysis icon_lol.gif Wells does a far better job and before that, Rae blew Cullen out of the water.

Not to mention most of the time he finds fault where there isn't any, a brilliant bit of attacking play will be disregarded and it will be "the C defenders" fault for "highlighting" the wrong player, he uses buzzwords to sound smart.

Introduction question followed by Offah looking scared to death then followed by deep intake of breath and "um er <pause, looks down at notes> sorry um they um, y'know" pauses between words more ums and ers!

Got marginally better from there but not much.

Sounds like they didn't tell him the questions beforehand icon_lol.gif he isn't much of a talker at the best of times!

Caught the last few minutes. They were a painful few minutes, he's so awkward and boring to watch and listen to.

Quote: headhunter "Because he's a poor coach. Maybe it should be a wake-up call for fans who think that a coach's job is just to shout at the players and tell them to do well.'"

But... he knows the reason for everything happening, in every game , every week icon_lol.gif

He also knows how players "lose their hips" icon_lol.gif and their "eyes" icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif and their "legs" icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Agreed, I look forward to the Cullen analysis on Boots N All.

Embarrassing to watch, he looks like he is trying to wing it with every question instead of being prepared. He was suppose to be talking about wire at point but instead talked about Salfords problems which ended abruptly until he started talking about Richie Myler injury and saying he won't be out as long as what has been reported ( isn't he is agent? ) had to switch over at this point.

Quote: roversmad "he certainly does seem to be able to point out how every try has been scored along with the whys and wherefores of all other aspects of the game, which begs the question........why is the team he coaches so $hite???'"


Does anyone watch Match of the Day. Alan Hansen could tell you why this goal was scored or why that goal wasn't scored, yet he's never even coached or managed a team. Football fans don't say he doesn't know what he's on about (apart from the kids thing). In fact all of the summarisers on MotD have either never managed or been pretty unsuccessful.

Just out of interest which team does Cullen coach?
