Not sure If anyone else had clocked or managed to hear Nige's commentary just after the full time whistle had blown but when he was describing the scuffle that was occurring at the end he said:
"& McClean & William's are having abit of hows your father"!!
Me & my mate looked at each other and said no-way, has he really just said that?! & he certainly had. Bless him! Sure it was a different phrase he was after using like 'having abit of a knock' but oh no, our Nige definitely had a freudian slip! Trying to explain to our young girls who'd heard us laughing & were wondering what we were laughing at it wasnt the easiest so just said "something the mans just said on the radio".. Didnt quite cut it!

McClean was gesticulating to take one of their players up the tunnel at the end. Quite the climax to the game. Oo-er.

To be fair on Nige, “how’s your father” is one one of the stranger euphemisms.

I liked it when he said words to the effect of “Diouf getting his first goal since, well, I don’t know when”.😂😂😂

Don't use his age as an excuse, he has always been like that.

A bit of "how's your father" is really a very general term. Could mean quite a few things really. Not quite like "going and chasing your Aunt Nellies fat cat round the garden", or "going to the foot of our stairs", but it is up there with em.
Men that used hip flasks, might often have been heard to say "I'll just have a little sip of how's your father".

Our Nige just can't seem to do right for doing wrong at the moment. If he were to look at the sky and say "Looking a bit black over Bill's mother's" we would have a right old problem with his racial statements.

I'm getting old. I've just had to Google it to see what it means. "Used euphemistically to refer to sexual intercourse." Well I'll be blowed. It must be one of those euphemisms that have changed in meaning over the years. 'Back in the day' it simply meant just doing something a bit sneaky and could mean anything. OS.

People moan about Nige, but we'll miss him when he's gone and replaced with some all-new, obnoxious and self-important commentator. I find that when listening to the radio, he actually gives a better description of the actual play than most radio commentators.

Absolutely, he makes me mad sometimes but I know if he left the replacement would be far worse. Long live Nige.

A few seasons ago, after Shaq had been clattered, Nige's comments........"Shaqiri is definitely struddling in the centre cirtle"

Met Nigel and his wife years ago in the old Reagan's restaurant at Hartshill and my wife asked him why he calls football socks stockings, because she always found it amusing, and he just replied "because that's what they are"
