    "Gasgoine.. Oh Brilliant! Oh yes!" - Can't remember the commentator, but you know the goal, from Euro 96.

    To paraphrase;

    <to Kevin Keegan>: Will he (David Batty) score?
    Kevin Keegan:.....Yes.
    Kevin Keegan:...........oh, no.

    There's lots I remember for lots of different reasons, but I'll always remember Harry Carpenter's: " GET IN THERE, FRANK!!!" , as he implored Bruno to try and finish Tyson off, having just rocked him with a great left hook. Just for a moment Harry wasn't a commentator; he was a punter shouting on his mate in what would've been one of boxing's biggest ever upsets.

    Of course, Bruno couldn't finish him off, and normal Tyson brutality was resumed in the following rounds leading to the inevitable win.
