brandonbee48 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 For knowledgeable fans I know the commentary can be irritating, However, it is always instructive to watch and count the ads they have sold, because ultimately that's what pays for the transmission.and the need to attract casual viewers. Living here in speedway vacuum land of Uncle Sam and totally dependent on streams, ii'll watch and listen to Polish, Russian Swedish, Danish and Ermelenkoish and just be grateful.

Just realized i must have used live pause earlier as i went to press pause and i notice i'm watching 5 minutes behind lol. Nasty rag doll type crash there hope they ok it certainly would have come as a surprise to Joonas. Then again that would give him less time to brace himself which stiffens up the body and causes injuries.

Star Lady Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 It's great coverage by Eurosport that is nice to see but they need someone to commentate. This pair are clowns. Jack does know his motorsport but he is out of his depth here and Sam has already began to let his mouth be half a sentence ahead of his brain. I'd like to hear Barnacle Bill with a co-commentator who can speak the language and actually answer the question put to him cos in fairness Barnacle Bill asks some interesting things. Hang on Sam has just inferred ankles are near shoulders,!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandorum Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) I turned the sound back up as I am addicted to them and these two idiots butcher Peter Protasiewicz's name continually for 5 minutes and I don't think in about 20 attempts they get it right once. This would not be tolerated in a major sport so why do we have to put up with it. It's not hard to find out these guys names. I remember last year the Premier lad mispronounced one of the Polish lads name and someone here corrected him and he apologised and did not get it wrong again all season. Jack just said 'he fends off the man in red'. His own team mate Edited May 6, 2014 by pandorum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His own team mate For Sam not to be able to say his name after probably riding with him for years is shocking really, you could get some fans to do a better job than these two! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
