Nige was on top form last night and so was Smithy. I was chuckling like a demented hobgoblin when Smithy threw his pen down in disgust and they were firking through the wiring to try and find it. I reckon Nige has given up trying not to say Sturrige because he never once said Surridge. Great stuff. Carry on Nige.
OS doffs flat cap to our two leg ends.

Exactly as stated. Fave was when he had three different pronunciations of one of their defenders in the same sentence. Bonus Nige bingo points for the Brown becomes Barnes moment. Stoke City legend.

I've severely criticised NJ recently but he didn't use a word out of place tonight. Well done Nigel..There's life in the old dog yet. I thought he said Fletcher cleared from a corner when he wasn't on the pitch He was referring to the Birmingham game, when Fletcher was contributing to defending corners.

I’ll be honest I keep reading this as “Nigde” and it’s making me a little bit peckish.

Pengate was like an episode of Last of the Summer Wine. Loved how he proceeded to calling their defender, Cabango, Cabongo and Cabonga within about 30 seconds

I don’t believe the match commentary could have been better at any game in England last night than that produced by Denis and Nige.
Can you win a BAFTA for radio commentary?

It'd be brilliant to give Nige one last hurrarh in the Prem before he hangs up the boots (headset).

I was seriously worried when Nige lost his pen. What's he going to stir his soup with, I thought?

I loved it too. Getting right and left wrong (3 times) was a minor classic. Many of those of us our 70's make similar 'misspokes' a lot. You 'youngsters' just wait! Nige is terrific.

Someone said on here he’s 84🤔but like you say the amount of mistakes now is incredible.Surely the BBC as an organisation have some say in this as well and you’d think his son Roger would tell him to call it a day also🤔 So at what point when your parents became old, did you fuck them off? Top Commentary last night!

Really good from both Smithy and Nige last night good performance just like the team on the pitch
much prefer Denis to Pej ,Denis was a successful manager over many years and it shows on his reading of the game

Forrest fans opinion of out Nige from their message board
Having to watch with Stoke commentary as the one with Radio Nottm commentary is buffering. It sounds like 2 old blokes sat in the pub, chortling away at Fin Back playing fullback. "What an appropriate name, BACK!"

Nige was wearing his winter overcoat today. It gets cold at the top of the main stand.

Having been to Nottingham aswell they think it's all hip and the bollocks but scratch the surface and what an absolute shithole full of stuck up cunts, I mean stoke ain't the greatest but the people are great. Fuck off Nottingham from experience. Nice one, thanks for that.
