Its come to something when the bbc is referenced as the pinnacle of sports commentary but you know full well you'd probably turn the sound down...lol
I'll take the format, the camera angles and the replays, but if I have to listen to partisan pundits, I'll take TC all day long.

I can’t say for sure about Dave Wandless but it’s a fantastic commentary from Ian Brooke
How bent was Ganson in that game

Quote: FOREVERTRIN "Just to be clear,my criticism of TC is nothing at all to do with his accent,but his very frequent mistakes in commentary.If we are appealing to a bigger and newer audience wouldn't it be better to get the product as good as we can.I watch all the the broadcasts and enjoy them, but just think they could be so much better.'"


I get where you're coming from I just don't think his mistakes are very important, they are part of his charm.
Mistakes aside, he is obviously close to the club and he brings that proximity to his commentary, Who else is going to know/remember or be even thoughtful enough to mention where nearly everyone on the pitch came from and who they've played for previously.
Who else is in contact with players and staff on a personal level and can relate snippets of conversations he's had with them.
Who else would hanker back in Trinity history to days gone by and shoot an anecdote or tall tale during a game.
Not gonna get non of that with mainstream, they don't have a dog in the fight, they cater for neutrals, their own bias and the quest for a controversial take on a non controversial event, its all flowery fanny with no substance.

THIS IS SPARTA

well Trinity TV at least.... icon_lol.gif

Hell, I don't remember that kit, must have been a funky away strip or something.
I have a tape of Wakey Hull from 1990 or so, Brooke and Wandless were commentating.
They were doing their introductions just before the game, the girls were out with their buckets collecting donations and as they passed the commentary position the codheads chirped up with the old "get your t*ts out" chant which was actually louder on the tape than their own voices.
Completely ruined the pair of em, neither Brooke nor Wandless could say anything intelligible till 10 minutes in.
Didn't hear it at the game and I was only 50 yds to their right, but its on the tape.
Not strictly pc I know but, well...it was of its time and tbf, the codheads are still doing it 30 years later lol

22 6 I think

Think TC’s and his mistakes is he’s looking with his eyes the full length of the field whereas we are looking at a much larger image of said player through a camera lens .
