What a goal call by Tyler! Neville great too. Stunning goal and fantastic commentary with it.

Tyler and Neville followed it up by talking about a certain Andy Gray

Brilliant call by Tyler & Neville and a great reaction as well!

This one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_G...ler,_born_1964) not the former Sky commentator

I think MT and GN meant the midfielder who spent some time at Crystal Palace during the late 80's and early 90's, as opposed to the former Sky Sports co-commentator. There has been a number of Andy Gray's throughout the years, so easy to be confused!

However, I agree, brilliant goal, and a super commentary to go with it from Tyler and Neville.

Tyler finished eh... Superb goalcall.

Thanks. Kind of you to say that.


I know it's not the same as appearing on TV, but Darren Eadie's co-commentated on quite a few matches involving clubs other than Norwich for talkSPORT's international Premier League radio commentary service. Although he hasn't worked for them since the Canaries went down. He's a regular pundit and co-commentator on BBC Radio Norfolk's Norwich broadcasts, so he gets steady work covering the club he's most famous for playing for. On a different note, belated thanks for answering my question about Simon Thomas' status at Sky Sports the other day.

Hearts v Aberdeen- Liam McLeod for the BBC
Rangers v Celtic- Liam McLeod for the BBC

Busy period for Rob Hawthorne, three matches in five days and presumably at least one more in the next few days. At least Andy Hinchcliffe has had a few days off.

From memory I think I saw a sky advert saying that had shown the most watched 27 matches this season.

Normally sky show 49 out top 50.

Realistically I think only five BT matches could break into top 50

Liverpool v man city 2nd favourite, Liverpool v Chelsea favourite, bt one remaining big pick on sat, manu v everton, man city v Chelsea (last three unlikely)

Any ideas as to xmas ratings and whether Liverpool game rated well?

Also bbc match on Fri has limited build up, will be interesting to see how well it does

Matt Upson and Lawro were the pundits on MOTD2 last night. First time I can remember Upson appearing on MOTD2 and thought he was actually surprisingly good.
Seemed pretty comfortable, confident delivery and made a few nice tactical points. Wouldn't mind having him make a few more appearances.

Lawro was just well Lawro. Once you've seen one appearance you've seen them all.

Some great goal calls on that Giroud finish.

Boro v Leicester- Jim Proudfoot and Matt Holland
Everton v Soton- Tony Jones and Andy Hinchcliffe
Blackburn v Newcastle- Dan O'Hagan

Man City v Burnley- Rob Palmer

Simon Thomas in the studio with Alan Smith and Niall Quinn

It's actually Davie Provan with Ian Crocker, easily done

We're heading for the single market.

Presumably in the studio at Sky HQ with the second game to come this evening?
