It does however mean a very familiar voice will be doing his first live Sky PL commentary of the season in Mann's absence.”
Do hope Daniel Mann is doing OK - whatever the reason for his absence is - and look forward to his return to commentary.
Surprising he was down to do a live Premier League commentary - would've been his first of the season.

Must be the first time Ian Crocker has done a live PL match commentary for many a year (obviously he'd have done plenty of the Match Choice broadcasts over the years which'd be broadcast live worldwide).
Only one I can remember was the 'emergency snow' pick which someone posted a link about a while ago.

As ever a bit much with FNF.
The first edition in particular was ridiculously overdone - 90 minutes of build-up, 2 presenters, 4 pundits, the commentary team, Shreeves and Chris Kamara. For a pretty bog standard MU home game.
