Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, May 12, 2008, 18:29:14 ....why oh why do the BBC employ so called experts on football who actually know fuck all about it? Just listening to 5 live, and as you'd expect for our league's PO at Leeds, they're discussing ManUre.
Ingham..... I think to Stan Colleymore. "Stan some are saying this United side is the greatest ever....but I think the treble winning side must be in with a shout." Stan.....has to be the treble winning side for me Mike ," Cantona, what a player, Pallister and Bruce...Kanchelskis and Mark Hughes..." Title: Pointless rant....

Collywobbles really is a waste of a skin. Pissed all of that talent away did the shitter on Osasuna in Spain after then was arrogant enough to say last season that he could still cut it in the top flight. Dogging, wife beating and shagging Ulrika the man has no shame and how the Beeb can justify employing him is madness. There was a classic letter printed with all of the readers shite in some lower shelf excuse for porn where he was touting for a column featuring him travelling all over the world and writing up his experiences.

Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, May 12, 2008, 18:57:06 Its not just Stan though....Alan fucking Shearer does my head in.
How I pine for the days of The Panel of the 1970 WC....Derek Dougan, Bob McNab, Paddy Crerand and Malcolm Allison. Allison used to sit with a short one on the table and a fat cigar on the go.....McNab had a little bell to ring, if he wanted to say anything, to shut The Doog and Big Mal up. Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, May 12, 2008, 19:00:00 Does anyone else find it quite amusing how all the pundits on Gillette Soccer Special fight over each other just to describe how amazingly close someone has come to scoring?
I do. Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Don Rogers Shop on Monday, May 12, 2008, 19:00:44 I dont
Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, May 12, 2008, 19:04:38 To be fair I should probably lay off the Nitrous Oxide before I watch those sorts of shows.

I rate Roberto Martinez, and Gus Poyet, both of whom crop up on Spanish football on Sky. Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, May 12, 2008, 20:22:25 It was a good point until you mentioned Paddy Crerand.
Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Bogus Dave on Monday, May 12, 2008, 20:23:36 i think in general radio 5 have the best commentary and punditry in both telly and radio. Theres plenty worse than collymore..
Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, May 12, 2008, 20:27:29 Quote from: "Spencer_White" It was a good point until you mentioned Paddy Crerand. You have to understand Paddy was cutting edge in 1970. I think back fondly to the great Joe Mercer who did the 66 WC and really had problems with names....so Pele was Peelee and Eusebio was Oosabeo. The North Korean side was quite rightly beyond him... Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: DMR on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 11:31:38 As far as "rants" go Mr Smeeton, that was pretty fucking feeble. Far too much justification and reason to constitute a rant.

I don't think they had the concept of 'panel' back in '66 but I might be wrong Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 12:57:55 i think collymore is a pretty decent pundit on 5live.i like alot of what steve claridge says too.
i cannot abide jonathon pearce,or gabriel marcotti.they make me have violent urges Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: adje on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 13:27:16 All you have to remember is that every pundit anywhere said 4 weeks ago that Fulham were definitely down.They dont know any more than you or I-THEY'RE ALL CUNTS!
Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: janaage on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 13:42:01 I tipped Reading for the drop at the start of the season, does that mean I am greater than Paul Walsh?
Title: Pointless rant.... Post by: A Gent Orange on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 13:43:29 Argh Marcotti! He is such a sanctimonius, smug little shit. I used to listen to The Times podcast but his incessant bleating drove me insane. He always claims to know transfer details before everyone else and actually reels off the same fact you can get from any newspaper. (Much like that other malformed wanker Nick Robinson)
This season he also argued that Martin O'Neill was doing a worse job than David O'Leary. But somehow he seems to have forgotten that now. Pearce is just a shithead.

Can I have a million quid a year for lolling about on a sofa on MoTD uttering platitudes?
