It's like This Time with Alan Partridge became a real programme. I love how much they hate each other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Two for me. 1. Just got my highest score from a word in Scrabble - 176 points. 2. I subscribe to DAZN to get the EPL games, albeit with a Spanish commentary. Just found out that by setting my VPN to Canada I can use DAZN to get the Champions League with an English commentary and an excellent transmission quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buchan30 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Got asked yesterday if i could do an extra 4 hours today. Then someone from the nightshift came in early, so i was no longer required. 6pm finish tomorrow, then off for a week where I will be hitting the town with mates I haven’t seen in ages. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite not understanding a word of the language, I found the Mexican commentators to be more knowledgeable and entertaining than most I've heard on ESPN, Sky, or the BBC. Also, never underestimate how much a loud Mexican chap screaming "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLL! GOL GOL GOL GOL GOOOOOOOOOOL!" can liven up the dullest of matches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about the passion and excitement a lot of the commentators put into the call of the game is missing from most of the robots we in ‘Murica and the UK pay to call games. Conversely, the local lads doing commentary for Bumf**k F.C. can be hilariously fun to listen to, even if some take it too far. Most paid, “English Speaking” commentators sound like they either are green side at the Open or just took a dozen sleeping pills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
