Coombes is f'ing hopeless too.
Why do they struggle so mightily to get a decent presenter? (Don't even get me started on Jonny Gould!) |
|
By:
Coombes is useless yet but least he presents the show with some enthusiasm and mike seems to like schooling coombs on the game

i thought the coverage last night was excellent
been a huge improvement over 3 weeks |

If Coombes is the answer, I don't know the question.
At least Carlsen doesn't bully Imlach and I don't get the impression Imlach would stand for it if he attempted. |

Mike knows his stuff (most of the time) but he desperately wants to be a 'crack up'.
Unfortunately, he has all the endearing comic quality of a pissed off rottweiler and his attempts just grate after a while - it must be an absolute nightmare to work with, so that might explain Imlach's slightly pained delivery. Still, as with terrestrial MLB coverage, I just hit mute when the two stooges are on and at least we're getting some football. |

Agree about Mike.
He switches from being mr serious to a kid in a sweet shop in seconds, and always talks over the presenter. Personally I reckon they've sedated Imlach, so he doesn't poke mikes eyes out in the break. |

Bring back Colin Murray[smiley:crazy]

I think the C4 coverage is better than Sky's by a good bit..especially the graphics packages etc before the game and highlights.
Also the lack of commercials between plays is a big plus. |

By:
Quite liked Mark Webster when he was doing it before Murray

murphinator1 knows. Imlach is a highly respected sports journalist and Carlson won`t dare take the p*ss, like he did with Coombes.
But I think that`s good. I want to hear Carlson analysing (which incidentally he`s very good at) not telling jokes (which he`s useless at). |
