The sheer joy in his voice as he confirmed to the Forest fans that their direct train home was cancelled was a work of genius.

Jonty was doing the pitchside stuff. Couldn't tell if it was him doing the tannoy but it sounds about like him. Cheeky boy.  |

Jonty was a lot better than the usual "mighty mighty" Potters bloke.

Jonty was a lot better than the usual "mighty mighty" Potters bloke. Much better and he didn’t start every sentence with: “So”. |

He sounded delighted. One of the highlights of the game.

The announcement coincided with a hilariously poor free kick on the edge of our box which made it all even funnier 😀

"All direct trains from Stoke to Nottingham..."
Pause for effect, then raises voice enthusiastically:
"...have been caaaancelllled!"

Anyone know what happened to our old announcer (the one who used to announce the goals and subs etc)? Haven’t heard him in a while.

Anyone remember the bloke who looked like a red coat who had the wireless mic at the Vic that never worked? He used to swear at the crown in between it cutting out. You would hear every 4th word. Quite often if was F@@ k as he got more and more abuse from the paddock. |

Was stood in the paddock as a kid for one match & The microphone began crackling which was the norm back then & it got so bad he just threw it down on the pitch and walked off in disgust, never to seen again! 🤣🤣 |

He resorted to shaking the mic at one stage to get it to work. Not sure what he thought was inside. Can clearly remember him yelling 'It's not my f@@@ing fault' at the paddock 'Bunch of bastards' |

It was brilliant. I wonder whether he’s been sitting on the news as well until we went ahead 😂 He knew exactly what news he was going to deliver when he said "there is a problem with the trains and we'll update later". When announcing the cancellation he also knew of the replacement bus service but held onto that news a while longer. What a twat. He'd fit in well with our group |

Was brilliant regarding the trains but whoever the announcer was he missed the players coming out at the start of the game,the ref had led half the players out before he said anything without the usual build up🤔

I absolutely agree he is so laborious and so depressing to listen to
On the other hand Denis Smith has a sense of humour and has been a successful coach at a high level and a true Skokie at heart
