PHILIPRISING Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Pair of screamy, shouty morons. Can't stand either of them. YOU don't have to like them or their commentaries but why morons? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Science Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Definitely won me over too. They had you at 'hello' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 YOU don't have to like them or their commentaries but why morons? Well anyone that can call the wrong GP winner a few seasons back would be worthy of the moron tag! And it wasn't Kelvin (who I like for the record).

Blazeaway Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 YOU don't have to like them or their commentaries but why morons? Due mainly to their moronic noises they emit whilst commentating, in Pearsons case I forgot to add obnoxious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 IMO Pearson & Tatum are the doing a great job, and long may they continue. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 in Pearsons case I forgot to add obnoxious. and full of 'bullrubbish'. Listening to him most Elite League weeks try and convince us it was a great meeting, when it was really woeful is starting to grate too. You watch Sky football and if it was a dire woeful 0-0 match the pundits and commentators generally have the balls to say so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Sad that some people make personal comments about two guys commentating and only doing their job. If you don't like them turn off the sound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GiveusaB Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Anyone that promotes our beloved sport should be backed 100% IMO........Keep up the good work is what I say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 If you don't like them turn off the sound. Oh that old chestnut. We pay a premium for Sky Sports so should be able to get commentary that is not OTT shouty or trying to convince us that we are watching the worlds best riders in an embarrassment of an Elite League. But in my case I have just cancelled Sky Sports anyway. If next season it is back without Pearson I will be back to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arson fire Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 What commentator doesnt shout with noise in the background?? As the crowd noise or excitement goes up, so does the volume. Football rugby, darts, athletics, horse racing etc, its human nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football rugby, darts, athletics, horse racing etc, its human nature. There's a difference between actually commentating LOUDER and making moronic monkey noises and just shouting out the riders name like Pearson does whenever two riders get within a few feet of each other! He totally ruins it for me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 THEIR commentary position in Teterow was unbelievable, almost above the fence and actually with a better view than the referee, although they and their monitors did get covered in dirt on several occasions.

Hodgy Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Smashy & Nicey always very passionate and promote the sport at all levels. In my opinion they do a great job. So what if they make it sound louder and more exciting. At least they know what they are talking about. Could be worse, Sudden Sam - cringeworthy.

TheReturn Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 o what if they make it sound louder and more exciting. At least they know what they are talking about. If only that was true... on both accounts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He totally ruins it for me. what do you think he should say then?? How would you or anyone else differ?? Doesnt ruin it for me, i watch the speedway and what he says is irrelevant as i dont let it bother me one way or the other..... All commentators shout, all commentators make mistakes, all commentators get excited. They are no different. Sid waddell talked the biggest load of rubbish going in commentry but is sorely missed and well revered for example. Ive never heard the monkey noises tbf but cant imagine them going oo oo oo ah ah ah?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive never heard the monkey noises tbf but cant imagine them going oo oo oo ah ah ah?? I just seems to me that it it's the current trend to moan about them. I enjoy their commentary the are just enthusiastic ( maybe a little over enthusiastic at times). Yeh, they make the odd gaff, but who doesn't on live TV? If it's a good race, I'm so absorbed in it, I don't notice them anyway.. Who else would people suggest that knows anything about the sport? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Now Mel and Sue have quit the Great British Bake Off, I'd suggest Nige and Kelv take over. Just imagine "how did those cherries stay on the muffins" "Whoa, whoa , whoa " as a gingerbread house tatters before collapsing. "Wow, how did he do that " All at full shouting volume...perfect for Channel 4 Edited September 13, 2016 by Star Lady 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
