Regardless of what people’s opinions are I’d like to listen to the “Match Commentary” the problem is that 99% of what he comes out with is probably wrong and leaves you thinking “ have I just heard that right ?”, good job there’s no rewind facility as I’d be forever rewinding.
At the end of the day his hearts in the club but his brain and mouth aren’t in sync whatsoever, it was funny but more of a “ oh not this idiotic fool again”.

I particularly enjoyed him and Spinks saying they didn't want a repeat of what happened against Brentford... a game we won 3-2! We'll miss him when he's gone, long may he continue!

Even in his twilight years Nigel still makes more sense than George Andrews ever did in the 90s "Here comes Jinking Jimmy, jinking down the wing, except his name isn't Jimmy. It's Wayne" "Martin Foyle leaps like a salmon" "First-time header" "Ainsworth, hard and low, over the bar" Haha, good shout! I was just trying to recall some of the local commentators we’ve had down the years and I remember The Georgie Boy’ as he refers to himself.😂 He must be knocking on a bit now, too. I remember him refereeing a local ‘It’s a Knockout’ event for our lads and dads team when I was a kid. Also bumped into him at the speedway at Loomer Road a few times. I can confirm he is absolutely bat shit crazy in real life, too.🤪😂

Says “in more ways than one” about every 30 seconds. Or “in many ways” if he wants some variation. Absolutely dire but an institution

The picture of him tied up at the Victoria Ground when he should have been on air which is in the hardback book is also in the paperback.

Those of a certain age will never forget David Coleman’s comment in the 400 yds race at the Olympics “he opened his legs and showed us his class”. One many infamous missteps that became known as “Coleman-balls”.

Nige, Make as many mistakes as you want with players name, just do what you have always been good at, giving the listener a good idea of what is happening on the pitch and whereabouts on the pitch.

“Chalibah has been booked there he must of said something”
No Nige he’s been booked for clearing Thompson out a couple of minutes earlier on the half way line and the ref was awaiting a break in play

It's like he has no awareness at all in what's happening. Usually he has someone to help bail him out but last night he had Blakeman who isnt far off as bad !

The coverage on BBC Stoke is turning into the Dad's Army of football coverage.
I think Nige and the Supporters Council dictator have a combined age of 264.

my biggest problem with mr Johnson is,he’s to fcukg impartial, and irritating while he’s commentating,i can never tell,who’s scored, i have to wait a few seconds, to find out, he will say, oh that’s the first goal of the game, oh thats an excellent goal, oh its in the back of the net, oh dear its in off the post, we need someone commentating, with lots of enthusiasm for stoke,especially since we cannot go and watch the game live,i know he is a bit of a legend,but now surely its time for his pipe and slippers, and give a younger up and coming enthusiastic commentator a chance.
