I think the commentary pair have been decent. Gave us compliments when needed and showed decent knowledge. Unfortunately what pundits and experts think are usually a million miles away from what a lot of people on here think(agenda and rage driven)! I thought they were very complimentary towards us and as I say listening to them commentate and reading the match day thread proved that!

Like how he gave Stoke some praise too but enjoyed hearing him mispronounce Clucas’s name the most “Lucas...Cluscas...Cluca...James O’Connor” (Might have made the last name up)

We've been rinced four nil at home with a wardrobe up front. What do people expect pundits to say, we're hardly Hungary circa 1950 😄

He's referring to his work rate mainly. The gulf in these two sides is clear for anyone to see. He described Brown as strong and intelligent Pissed myself at that

I thought he was quite complimentary to us, overly so at times. He really did. He went out of his way in fact. Arguably far too polite and even-handed. You sometimes wonder what some people on here see when they look in the mirror. What he could have said is: "Leicester are a team that may well finish top 4, and certainly top 6, in the PL. It's no disgrace to be beaten by Leicester, even though they left their 2 best players at home. But they strolled through a game against a team that looked happy simply to be on the same pitch. A complete and abject surrender. There were no fans in the ground, but if there had been, some Stoke players should be considering reimbursing them from their substantial wage packets".

I did have to smile (through gritted teeth) when one of them said Maclean wasn't showing the qualities we know he has when he skewed yet another cross behind the goal.
Trouble was he was showing the true extent of his "quality".

I like him
I think his opinions are fair , and it's good that he has played at all levels of professional football from small teams to huge teams .
In a way , he has seen ,more of all four leagues than say Gary lineker or Alan shearer , even though they may know top flight football well.

At least he's actually played the game at the top level. I'd rather have him than the dinosaur nige on radio stoke.

He lost all semblance of credibility with 'brown has really impressed me, held the ball up well, intelligent runs'

Double shift for him this weekend, he's covering the Man City - Blues game if anyone's missing his expert & insightful Co-commentary analysis! 🤣🤣

Didn’t think he was very good or the commentator, there are just no personalities anymore. Hardly surprising I suppose.

Wasn’t Warnock the twat that fell over to get a foul at Villa so that Mama’s goal was disallowed? Not that I bear grudges for long😁

Some absolute sensitive snowflakes on here. Jesus some of you lot can’t take criticism. And a whole threat on it - fuck right off!
Warnock was complimentary of what Stoke did well, the fact that there wasn’t much to shout about wasn’t his fault! He was extremely complimentary of Bursik. Also he was more than complimentary of Shawcross and provided a bit of insight into them been in England squads together.

Watched a couple of minutes of the Citeh game but the pitch of the voice sadly made me switch to the Crawley game which ended up a great giant killing. I have tried to listen to Sparks (not the group) on radio commentary and although very knowledgable the pitch of the voice makes it hard to listen to. As for Warnock he was polite like he always is and adds the odd back story.

I don’t understand why they still talk about us like we’re some strong, big, aggressive team that’s difficult to play against.
It’s not true and hasn’t been for 5 years.

He can't be worse than Clinton Morrison, he can't even speak properly half the time.
