Matterface in poor commentary shocker 23:17 - Dec 11 with 2486 viewsOldsmoker

The Mail online (spit) has said, and I quote...

"Kane stepped up for his second penalty, which would have made him England's all-time top scorer, but sent the ball flying over the crossbar.

After which Matterface delivered 'one of the worst commentary lines of all time' and said: 'We needed Gary Lineker but we got Chris Waddle."

Matterface dares to sully the name of an England legend.



Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Matterface is an awful commentator.
The absolute crap he comes out with is terrible, cringy and embarrassing

It's like the BBC and ITV tried to pick crap commentators. You have the likes of Neville sitting in the studio for 15 mins at HT and for the other 90 we have to listen to absolute rubbish.

I can only think Neville's Sky contract does not let him do commentary for anyone else?

Truly impaired.

Quite frankly the guy is an idiot...with very little knowledge of how the game is played. Has he ever played?

l find Jonathan Pearce just as irritating. He mumbles as he talks, it gets quieter as he goes along until you can barely hear his voice over the crowd noise( although,thinking about it,thats a good thing).

He was trying to hark back to the quote he'd used earlier: "We needed Churchill but we got Iain Duncan-Smith."

I actually thought that was quite funny

The nature of commentary has changed over the years. Long ago, the commentator's main job was to identify the players & comment on anything unusual. Later, a co-commentator was added, usually an ex-pro who would summarise & add expert knowledge. How, the prime commentator's role is so-called "colour commentary", whereby his job is to over-dramatize every incident and add lots of near irrelevant statistics. No, I find much of it irritating, but the guys are largely doing what the producer tells them to do.

I watched the match with french commentary. Sounds like it might actually have been better.

Out of interest what was the consensus of the French commentators? That the better team win, England were unlucky etc?

I never really noticed but I honed in during Saturdays match.
Yes he is basically a commentator for Match and Shoot readers.
