They never stopped going on about the penalties. They weren't penalties... Ever. Dives if anything. And commissioning about the referee even tho he got them right. Be honest,they didn't really keep going on about the penalties did they 🤭

I thought Sohail was excellent and you can tell he's bought into the struggle this season

He's been much better but to be fair to him when he first started and got slated by Stoke fans he got upset and took it to heart, he listened to what was being said and learnt from it and now I actually enjoy listening to his passion even if Stoke isn't isn't his first club. When I listen to him now for at least those 90 minutes he sounds like he cares about Stoke.

Can't believe how precious some people are about the commentaries. They're radio commentators , commentating on very pedestrian matches, sometimes it's more interesting to hear about chocolate than the game.

Nice to hear cranny celebrating in the background on the second goal as well

Give the guy a break. He is still a newbie and has a hard act to follow after Uncle Nige.
Hang on a min. Weren't you all moaning about him and Ange last season?
Tin hat is on😊

I do actually think Sohail is getting much better as his knowledge of the club and players is improving.
And he seems quite invested now.

I like him. He annoys me when he starts describing everything he can see beyond the Bet 365 instead of commentating but overall he’s decent. Did he mention how many fans we took today ? 😂

I fucking love him. He's absolutely off his nut.

He kept repeating we had taken 2k fans until I presume someone had a word in his ear and he corrected it to 3k. It was common knowledge before today how many we were taking

I'll give it to Sohail he's winning me over now. He actually seems like he really cares now and dare I say it is forming a soft spot for us.

"If you know [insert the nsme of the away ground]" gets me every time. I fucking love him. He's absolutely off his nut. 'This famous old ground' gets me and he will use it to describe grounds from 5-100+ years old. Certainly has a screw loose but I suppose when you are watching Stoke every week you can't be wired up perfectly.

I'm a fan, but today Crannie was wittering on about something, Sohail joined in, and they forgot to mention it was half time!

There's a vast difference between local and regional print media and live sports and news coverage, so I'm not expecting regional radio to be pulled any year soon.

Yes it’s got that quaint air of cricket commentary, which is fine by me as long as they’re not missing any immediate significant action

"If you know [insert the nsme of the away ground]" gets me every time. I fucking love him. He's absolutely off his nut. Yes, and then he invariably describes something that doesn't require knowledge of the ground in question. "If you know Deepdale, there's a goal at one end and another goal at the other".

I like him and Ange.
He has a great memory of the games he's watched so far and keeps comparing things on the pitch to specific moments in other games this season which I've largely forgotten about.
Cranson should take some happy pills, sounds a proper killjoy on radio

Every time I listen to Sohail he just gets better. An absolute character, I think in time he will be fully accepted and appreciated. Loved his description of Will Keane's bun and how he wasn't envious.

I love local radio commentry on local football. I think it's supposed to be impartial (sort of) but it rarely is. Some years ago at Christmas 5 LIve put a show on which was a compilation of local radio commentators getting over-exited about the antics of the local team that they obviously support. The programme was deliciously called 'He's hit the f***in' post', this being a direct quote from a live commentary. Unfortunately the compiler/presenter was Stuart Hall so it's unlikely to get another airing.

The language part of my brain has gotten to the point where I can at least understand half of what Cranson is saying, but it exhausts me trying to do it.

I thought he was crap at the start of the season, but Ive warmed to him. It can't have been an easy first season to commentate on, with what has by and large been piss poor. I do think that he has upped his game and its right back to pre game, when i cant wait for Graham Mcfuckface pissed off so I can here about Stoke.

His commentary is getting better game by game, fair play to him.
