Pearson was polishing turds like this for years. Like Crumpie as a pundit but too similar to Kelv/Louis. Just discussed the same with my lad . Nigel will be sadly missed.....

Massive loss just isn’t the same is it? As someone else just said, Tatum, Louis and Crump all very similar and any of them are fine as a sidekick analyser, but the coverage desperately needs a lead specialist commentator. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ok agreeing on things but a bit of criticism of riders/conditions etc. isn’t bad. most sports commentary is very earnest now though isn't it. don't ever disagree with one another it'll make people feel awkward. 70's punditry sadly missed here. Is Sam on Discovery doing analysis on the gates? 5 wins from gate 3 already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe bring Dave Goddard in from Premier? Or Dave Rowe who is much better when he doesnt have to face the camera..

I'm presuming that information is exclusive to Discovery Sports subscribers!!! PS The Presenter, although used infrequently on the Eurosport coverage, seems really good.
