Title: Steve Claridge Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 11:27:59 i like steve claridge. some of his views are slightly dodgy, bt you can't fault his enthusiasm. and unlike a lot of pundits he actually knows a fair bit about the lower leagues too.

But he's a twat. Title: Steve Claridge Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 11:38:04 Was it King who tried to bring the old sod in and he turned us down?
Good player though and not a bad pundit in the making although he's more your Soccer Saturday chimp on Sky Sports than prime time.

Title: Steve Claridge Post by: janaage on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 12:56:20 So he undertook a couple of cars, at high speed, and he doesn't think that should be called "dangerous" driving?
I also like the fact he doesn't admit it was raining at the time, like some sort of weather martyr. GUILTY!! (as per updated story from beeb states).

You're like the Ronnie O'Sulivan of puns. Even when there isn't a natural angle you still force it with a bit of spin. :D Title: Steve Claridge Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 13:52:48 Quote from: "Hexagon" Quote from: "Dazzza" Was it King who tried to bring the old sod in and he turned us down?

I started off thinking the same, but when you listen carefully Claridge is mostly a bullshitter.....its always amusing listening to the Friday preview show on 5Live , where Claridge gets routinely humiliated by Gabriele Marcotti, but doesn't quite realise it and just digs himself in deeper.

Interesting that our views are polar opposites....I suppose its all about perception...Claridge thinks because he's an ex player he knows more than Marcotti.....Marcotti thinks because he's an urbane Italian journo who speaks fluent English....he knows more than Claridge, who he considers thick. Title: Steve Claridge Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, May 13, 2008, 17:25:00 I think its 50/50. Both of them come up with some rubbish ideas. Claridge has the advanatge though - he knows a hell of a lot more about english football than marcotti
