Commentators calling their favorite club's games

[Alan Whittle]

Martin Tyler is a working fan

Now looked this up. Apparently Tyler is a Chelsea fan. His local club as a boy was Woking, where he once painted the gates. He was on the coaching staff at Kingstonian under Alan Dowson but when Dowson left to take over at Hampton and Ricmond, Tyler went with him.

Tylers orgasm here was amazing, made the goal all the more satisfying



He's not even a United fan either lol

i don't mind it too much , they can't influence the game.

biased refs on the other hand

 

[Khalekan]

I remember the city game during Liverpools title bottle job and Martin Tyler saying how quiet Goodison was every two minutes as if we were happy to lose.
Kopite bell!

Remember how his voice broke when he cried Balllotelllllllllliiii.... when the Italian was about to shoot into an open goal at Palace last season

And how we laughed when the big tube missed

 

[ToffeeDan]

Stuart Hall is a Young Boys fan..

anyway - the late Ali Brownlee, renowned Boro fan - brilliant commentary here:

Christ Almighty, really?

Fairly certain it was in the 02-03 season, yes. There's a reference to it here. Around the same time as the Ron Atkinson incident I seem to remember! http://twohundredpercent.net/why-we-deserve-better-than-alan-green/

Apropos Corinthian Casuals in the Brian Labone thread.

Good bit of balanced and impartial commentary here (sry about the rugby):

 

[Eggs]

I've heard Alan Parry appeal for a penalty.

....I remember during one commentary he described where he used to sit on the Kop.

 

[toffeejack]

england always have commentators who support them

 

[Pilks]

Brian Moore was definitely Gillingham. They had a fanzine called 'Brian Moore's Head Looks Uncannily Like The London Planetarium', in recognition. Really!

 

[Saint Domingo]

Problem with all these pundits and referees who all supposedly support Gillingham Woking Barnet and Rotheram is that they all have probably adopted a premier league team as well which nearly always turns out to be Liverpool or United.

Tyler's commentary in that Liverpool City game is unbelievable, he was actually gutted when the City equaliser went in.
