I'd like to add to the "the wanker can have all the time off in the world" pile please. Cannot bear him. 90% of the time he acts as if the game he is commentating on is beneath him, and spends the other 10% moaning solidly about the referee. Epic bellend. Totally agree, his "commentaries"of England games are a disgrace.

"He was commentating on a man utd champions league game once when he had to read out the score of a league 2 game. His words were something like "...and its Rochdale 1 Bury 1...like anyone cares about that at the moment." well Rochdale and Bury supporters do you utter fucking twat."
Well perhaps those Rochdale and Bury fans should either attend the game or listen to whatever their local radio station is FFS!!
I would imagine that only about 99.9% of the people who tune in to watch a Man Utd Champions League genuinely do not give a shit about the Rochdale Bury fixture, but I could be underestimating the percentage.

Never mind Alan Green. I quite like Gary Neville on Sky. Almost forgiven him for not getting sent off against us last season.

I listened to Radio 5 Live tonight, they were covering the Man City game. However, i was very interested in all the Championship scores that they were reading out, yet i don't follow the specific teams who are competing in those games. Unfortunately the Burnley Vs Notts Forest game wasn't on radio Stoke and BBC weren't showing Brighton Vs Palace live. However a hell of a lot of people care about Championshp football, and indeed all league football, and scorelines of teams who they don't follow do affect their team if they're in the same division as the teams who may be playing. I personally just like to take an interest in all football from Prem to League 2. So to say something along the lines of "as if anyone cares about that at the moment" does make Green come across like a twat i'm afraid.

Alan Green thinks he is some kind of all knowing football God, or at least that how he comes across. I find his commentaries irritating; in particular his slamming of referee's performance. I'd like to hear a ref slate him for his shocking commentating.
The cunt.

Yeah, because all supporters of every team can attend every match their team plays. if they can't, they should never ever dream of listening to 5 live in the hope that their teams score is read out because they may not be in the vicinity of their local radio station. As, presumably, a Stoke supporter have you attended every match since your birth? Never been stuck somewhere doing something else desperately wondering how we're doing and hoping some dick of a commentator takes 5 seconds out from slobbering over man utd to deliver you our score? If you haven't, then hats off to you because you are a brilliant. Also, see rigsbys post. People are interested in other football sometimes as well and its nice of the BBC to provide the scores of other matches without being condescended by the likes of Alan Green

Im not saying thats a reason hes been missing mind Yes he does, seen him at Macc games a few times He was doing 606 last season when a drunk woman rang to talk about Man City but started with "Hi Alan, I'm Sue from Tytherington, you live in XXXXXXX Road don't you ?" so much for the fabled "10 second delay" the BBC claim to have so they can censor bits
