Leg Trailer Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Hard charging Kelvin might have been giving the boot out of Scott Nichols pit by the time we get Pearson back on commentry. .... so no doubt he'll be "feeling very second hand" after that!

tomcat Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) I've not felt much like commenting on Mucky Millard and his constant mistakes, but the last GP took the biscuit as far as I'm concerned.... The guy just talks drivel and really does have no idea about what is actually going on in front of his eyes. I was starting to get to the point of being able to just look at the on screen action and ignore his inane ramblings, but it got that bad.... what has his green car got to do with speedway by the way... that I was going to actually switch the GP off. I am in total agreement with the people on the forum, that suggested an alternative, using just the sound of the bikes, with NO commentary at all. Oh please Sky, at least give us an alternative option..... the man is going to end up driving viewers away. There's only so much any person can take of a commentator making stupid mistakes. Looks like the European GP will be watched in my house with the mute button firmly engaged..... which is a shame, but I cant take anymore of this idiot. Regardless of how fortunate we are to have speedway televised, we pay an arm and a leg for the pleasure, surely a half decent commentator is not too much to ask for.

IW08 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 "Tomasz Gollob, the seven times Polish national champion." Seems to repeatedly ram that down us, even though he's said about 100 times before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he has said that 100 times then I shudder to think how many times we have been told Gollob is Polands highest paid sportsmen. Tomcat,dont watch with the mute button turned on,half the fun is waiting for Millards next balls up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat,dont watch with the mute button turned on,half the fun is waiting for Millards next balls up. I hear what you say...Oh the irony....lol, but its starting to grate on my nerves now. Maybe I'll have one more go tonight, but if that muppet starts again, well it may just cost me a TV...which wouldnt make me happy, as I just splashed out for a nice new set for this season too..... It just leaves me bemused that Sky dont realise what the prat is doing to their broadcasts.... or maybe they do....I just dont know anymore. Anyway, Emil to win again tonight I hope, loved the guy in the Czech GP....what a rider. Also hope the Brits manage a decent finishing position tonight. Ok, not the best we might have, but they're still Brits and should be supported. And the biggest thing of all.... a safe meeting for ALL riders.... oh and a miracle with the track prep.... some dirt please Mr Olsen, although that is asking too much I suppose...

ALL OF US Millards commentry always goes the same,welcome to Lezno,then he tells us population and how many miles the track is from some tourist attraction.Quick bit of news on the weather including temprature to try and fool everyone that he is track side and then its onto inane drivell with his list of twit-bit information that he must include,calling wrong riders in wrong races,not being able to call four riders in the right order and jobs a good one.

smartace Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 why does he try and con us to believe he is actually there ????? Everyone knows he is sat above a butchers shop in Huddersfield !!!!Some of the cack he came out with tonight topped the lot.I think he must spend half his life looking down at his programme rather than watching the actual racing.NEVER does he pick up on an engine failure until the race has finished and Brando shouts in his ear-piece and tips him off as to what happened.Come on Sky he is well past his sell by date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomcat Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 The man surpassed himself this evening.... was it me. or did he say that Nicki P couldnt qualify for the semi final, even though it WAS the semi final we were watching, with Nicki P in it??????? Like when he announced that Gollob, I think it was, had come second, when it was a totally different rider..... the man's a muppet, has no idea and this evening was the very last time that I will listen to a so called professional humiliate our beloved sport live to the World.I feel sorry for Keith Huwen and the riders either interviewing or in the studio, they must cringe whenever that idiot opens his mouth. And dont even get me started on the track.... what a way to ruin the competition for the World Title. We all know that Lezno is far far better than what we witnessed tonight, time for Mr Olsen to step aside too I think. No wonder BSI announced SWC tickets for Peterborough for just £15..... they didnt have the cheek to charge anymore as Ole Olsen will no doubt wreck the track there too. Peterborough is normally a very good track, with some cracking racing, which we all know will be the complete opposite come that SWC round..... Oh... and you're all correct, Millard is nowhere near the actual stadium we see on TV, he is most definitely in the Sky studio's... Chris Louis let that one slip a few years back. In fact Millard and his co commentator for the night are just yards away, in the next room.... who is he trying to kid by attempting to make out he is actually there???
