    ANother clown just for entertainment purposes is Dean Windass who usually doesn't know any non British or Irish player's name.

    Phil Thompson starts screaming in the background about a goal in some match like Stoke vs Wigan (like he's really interested) - that said it's an entertaining programme and Stelling with say something like "There's been a goal at Hillsboro" and my heart goes in to my mouth and then usually ends up in my boots.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    Stelling is brilliant, but the "screaming factor" is now ridiculous. Merson is a clown...when Bullard hit the post last sat with a peno, he told us he hit "the beans on toast" - not even proper ryhming slang. what a moron. Then you have Thompson and Nicholas screaming like fools.

    As for that fool Garteh Crooks on final score.....

    I don't care, give me Giles and Dunphy anyday!!
