Owen is certainly not the worst around and has certainly got better this season especially when he has been with Darke.”
To be fair while Townsend can turn completely partisan at times if an English club is involved (and is dire), Owen comes up with some frankly ridiculous views and analysis.
Even the most casual football viewer would be ashamed at saying "Balotelli has 30 minutes to make a name for himself" for example and that's not an isolated case. Add that to a voice totally unsuited to commentary and he's one of the very worst around for me.
Sorry casinoman if I've surprised you with my view there.
