Mrs brown's boys is fucking brilliant. much better than Vic Morgan.
Well I appear to be in a minority of 1, because I like them both. |

Great post Juddie. Could never knock Vic or Shaun, I've still got the 85/86 promotion cassette from when i was a kid.
Hopefully vic can sometimes come in as a guest when we're playing closer to devon. That would be a nice touch although I have a feeling he'll be snapped up commentating on another football league side.
Compared to other clubs we're lucky in that we have had people like Shaun and Vic who know the history of the club over the past 30 years. not by reading it but by actually being there when it happened.
i got that tape.......it can move me to tears...life was sweet , living at home and cadging lifts to games home and away...no mortgage, no moaning woman......beer, birds and we shot through the divisions like a porsche!! thanks VIC i will never forget the commentary when we got back into the game with the pikeys with charlie henry and peter coyne banging em in....magic memories!! |

Agree Mrs Browns boys is one of the most pathetic excuses for comedy ever on British tv a total waste of license payers money.
sorry JJ you over looked children in need, comic relief, sport relief and every other charity event...not a public funded priority in my view. Looking for cutbacks? get this shite off for a start! |

After listening to the Plymouth vs Bristol Rovers commentary on the way down to Torquay our commentators are amazing!!
The Plymouth bloke was total cringe!!

I'll miss Vic's commentary, it was familiar and comforting. For me, radio commentary is always difficult to listen to, whether it's Vic, Alan Green or whoever, but as long as the balance of play is conveyed and I understand (eventually) that goals have gone in I don't really care about anything else.
As for Mrs Browns Boys, and I know I have a very bleak view of 'TV comedy' (apart from Spaced) but is the whole joke the fact that its a very unfunny man dressed up as a woman..? Desperate stuff, why do the majority of Brits find this kind of cross-dressing lunacy entertaining?
As for Little Britain, "Ho ho ho... its Matt Lucas, and he's dressed as a really, really fat cellulite ridden woman... hilarious...I really hope he says the same tired catchphrase in a minute, you know the one, the one that he says every freaking week.... ohhh my sides are splitting".
Truly awful.

Yes, perhaps he/she is the chief writer of Mrs Browns Boys and is taking the criticism rather badly. |

I'm Seeing there are petitions and such going on now for this which I'm sure Vic is really touched by and no doubt he's very unhappy with the way it's been dealt with.
The fact is though BBC have to make cuts and it's the Government who have implemented this.
As earlier i mentioned I'm a big supporter of Vic, remember though he's not been back commentating swindon that long and it's completely understandable that a cut was to be made it would be someone who is not based here in swindon.
We were very lucky to have him and he'll be missed, who knows he may be asked back in years to come.
I will say that people should be looking higher up than BEEB on this one if you want to shout out your frustrations.
Good luck Vic
