Tony The Tiger Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Although i dont particularly mind Scoop doing the commentary, what a relief it is to hear the rather dull tones of Kelvin Tatum doing the commentary....especially after a few beers last night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenn Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Aren't Chris and Kelvin brave going for it on their own!! Fair play to them - Sound good so far!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I dislike Pearson on commentary, I would not wish any ill to him or his family. My thoughts are with him that it is not serious.

mervjankefanclub Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) I am actually quite enjoying Tatum and Louis doing the commentary, Louis in particular is becoming very adept at it. Just right for a relaxing Sunday morning Best wishes to Nigel Pearsons wife, hope it is nothing serious.

lupus Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Wouldn't wish ill on anyone so hope Mrs Pearson is okay. That said I think Kelvin is doing the commentator's job much better than Pearson. He's saying what's going on without bawling and lecturing the watching public....we haven't heard a single 'who SAID speedway is..........' all morning! Please, please can we have this 'team' more often. Louis is obviously far better at the 'expert' role than Kelvin and so far Kelvin is better than Pearson and Millard put together. This is the first speedway meeting this year where I haven't felt the need to either mute the telly or shout 'shut up' at the screen!!!! Keep up the good work Sir Kelv and Loubie!!!!!

tomcat Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) First of all, Congratulations to Nigel and his wife on their new arrival. Secondly...what a pleasure it was to hear Kelvin And Chris do the commentary this morning. Very professional job by both and maybe we have the new Dream Team in place now. Whilst I do like Nigel Pearson, it was refreshing to hear two former riders doing the commentary. They were good and kept if reasonably straight forward, which made the meeting very enjoyable. Charlie isnt a morning person is she.. Sorry, she does a great job to be fair, but it was a MORNING meeting Charlie, not an evening one...bless her. Thought the whole show worked well, Kelv and Loobie in the box doing the main commentating and Charlie and Scott worked well in the 'Studio'... if you could call it that. I wont hold my breath and hope Sky keep Kelv and Loobie in the commentary box, although I do hope they get more chances to have a go. Last but not least, Congratulations to the Poles on the win. You really couldnt have scripted a better finish. Gollob, who had done nothing all morning, comes out on a borrowed bike, needing to defeat the Aussies, in the shape of Leigh Adams and he goes and does the job.... and some. Well done to all of the teams, who contributed to a great Final. Edited July 19, 2009 by tomcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
