He's such a depressing commentator, I hate it when he's on. Combine that with a Scouse on co-comms and it's like they're commentating on Diana's funeral when Spurs score.Martin Tyler sounded absolutely miserable.
Not really a negative thing. Just funny to listen to the difference:
Martin Tyler's commentary:
Peter Drury's attempt:
I know which one makes me smile.
Tyler is too old. Get rid.

I'd pay good money for thatNah, do it outside Tottenham town hall..... Or maybe at HT at WHL.
I'd pay good money for that
Sod SpursplayCould make it a bi-weekly event as part of the match-day ritual.
Put 'em in stocks and Levy could charge us to throw shit beforehand...... Think of the revenue!
The Lamela Puskas winning goal is another classic from Tyler = in a flat voice "It's Lamela, it's gone in". Followed up with "it's just trundled in" from Alan Smith on co-comms.
How Peter Dury isn't the main commentator for football matches on the country's largest PL broadcaster I will never know! The only downside is you have to also endure the oppo goal score against you because he'll be describing that brilliantly too. But IMO he's the best English football commentator bar none.
bring Judas as well.I'd pay good money for that

Every half time entertainment should be an ex Woolwich or chav being put in a ring with a lion that has anger issues
After 5 minutes, levy rises from his seat and gives a thumbs down

Tyler is the worst. He is so biased he doesn't even disguise who he wants to win. The reaction to such a dramatic ending to a hot tempered match was probably his WORST EVER,
The man hates Spurs and he shows it blatantly.
No he's not.Um he's the same for everyone, he's just old and needs to retire.
