Shadwell Dog Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 There's a feckin volume button. If the commentary annoys you then turn it down. I'm sure most people seem to manage to go to a game without some punter talking you through it so no reason you can't do it at home. Geez we get a good 3 points and folk are bleating about the feckin commentary. Typical Falkirk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of commentators was level headed, knowledgeable and easy to listen to, even for the neutral or opposition fans. The other guy was a difficult listen, very anxious and didn't even know which Falkirk player made the challenge/had the shot etc. Your right can always mute. Our commentator is dry and not the best to listen to. Guess we shouldn't expect champions League quality on a shoestring budget.

Marshmallo Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 One thing I'd say across all the commentary teams I've heard is that they seem compelled to talk non stop for every second of the game rather than letting there be some silence at points. I'd get it if it was a radio broadcast but some dead air is fine when you've got the pictures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman_bairn Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Best commentary this season has been the Patrick Thistle guys. Favoured their team without over doing it and described the play well.Thought Montrose one was good if a bit dry.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mind that, just getting as nervous as I was and not pretending to hide it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd get it if it was a radio broadcast but some dead air is fine when you've got the pictures.Different sport but Pat Summerall and John Madden were the real perfect team. Summerall letting the picture tell the story will little to say and Madden the manic knowledgeable ex Coach. Summerall was the best 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulioBairn Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I love Sammy McGivern as much as the next guy, I’m more than happy with his biased commentary and he’s a huge upgrade on big Joe. But can we please stop pretending he is Mr Falkirk? The guy hardly knows who any of the players are More importantly get it right up Paul Hartley. Delighted for big Lee tonight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Cricket used to be excellent for commentators too especially radio 4. Now no matter what sport it is unfortunately being a decent commentator or host seems to be the least important factor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
