I've been rather vocal before in saying that his Fanzone style wouldn't work at all as matchday PA, but I take it back. He's definitely able to suit his style to the audience. |  |

Oh, I didn't realise that this wasn't his first gig in the stadium. Does that mean MM has been quietly ushered away already? |  |

It was DV’s third game, first was Blackburn. MM was in hospital with pneumonia not long ago, missed an episode of LAP as well. Can imagine doing the PA takes a lot out of you and he’s probably waiting to fully recover before coming back to that particular job? [Post edited 4 Oct 2023 0:31]

I think Mark Murphy was covering the speedway. |  | |  |

He reminds me of the bloke off Gladiators. (Too long ago for some of you) North Stand are you ready? South Stand are you ready? Ipswich, you will go on my first whistle. Hull, you will go on my second whistle. The goal scorer for Ipswich Town, Connnnoooooor ChhaaPLIIIIIINNNNNNN [Post edited 4 Oct 2023 8:43]

He did seem to have a bit of a 'ring announcer' vibe to him when reading out player's names, which I didn't necessarily think was a bad thing in the context. |  |
