Important info out the way first - Ray Parlour and Dean 'Deano' Saunders were the guests on bwfcol's favourite football show on SSNHQHDPLDAILY.

Good stuff from the two Alan's. They work very well together. I'd guess Leslie at Hull, Hawthorne at Anfield and Tyler at Southampton.”
Didn't hear much of the commentary (was heading to a 3pm game) but do think Alan Smith does a fantastic job.
He, Davie Provan and Andy Hinchcliffe are very strong on co-commentary week in week out.

Dwight Yorke Live I'll have you know. Can't be getting the Sky branding wrong now can we?

Play-by-Play? Can only assume that's the role Sky have on some games (the bigger ones) where as well as the main commentators either Carragher or Redknapp are also on the gantry and come in every so often with thoughts.

Sounds like Sky really let me down there.
I could forgive them a lot - whatever FNF is meant to be, ridiculous 'slogans' for matches, even getting rid of 'Inner Smile' as the League Cup Music.
But not using Dwight Yorke on Boxing Day though really is the last straw.
Up until MOTD, Boxing Day coverage was disappointingly competent compared to the diabolical Boxing Day coverage we got last year from BT.
Assume after last night's MOTD that Gazza1992 is now boycotting BBC as well as ITV.
