I'm in the Lawrenson hate camp as well, ridiculous.

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
He he, too true, most of the time his jokes are like what are you going on about! he does make me cringe...
still he's not as bad as my all time worst commentator, ron atkinson. the amount of drivel he said....phew hes off the airwaves. |

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
I'm unable to express my rage at his totally useless phrases, his half finished sentences and general drivel that he spewed last night.
Why on EARTH does anyone pay him? I'd walk him out of the studio if I was employing him. Honestly, the very least you could do is employ someone who can string a sentence together, finish it, and make sense. |

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
His radio commentary is slightly more bearable. Im not a big fan of the whole BBc tv football set up.

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
I have to agree, I'm not a fan of BBC's football coverage either. I like Linekar and Hanson, and that's about it. I actually can't stand Motson, I don't rate him as a commentator at all.

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
Is he homosexual? He must be - nothing wrong with homosexuals - just wondering.

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
His commentary last night was borderline cringeworth at times and even Motson had some pauses where he had to thing of something to say to counteract the stupid statements that come out of his mouth.

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
I actually think Motson is far, far worse.
Any time any team other than England get the ball for longer than 2 minutes it's straight out with the: "and England are under the cosh here" And is it me, or does he enjoy it when England lose? I swear he does, listen to his commentary, he was praying the Swiss scored again last night! |

Re: Mark Lawrenson: why is he allowed on TV?
Love the Lawrenson quotes, but IMO the ITV lineup for Champions League games is even worse. I dont even know who half of them are...and goodness knows why the BBC wanted Gabby Logan from them.
 Maybe theyre trying to even out the crapness... |
