Does the Poison Dwarf count?

If so I nominate Dunphy

And I wish the ORTE panel was on English TV.....it is way better than the horrible buggers we have to put up with.
 

Favourite was Martin O Neill, wasn't afraid to speak his mind, probably why he isn't on any more. Also like Keane, while I don't always agree with what he says at least he does speak his mind. I want pundits to say what they think, to have an opinion not to say what they think is acceptable. I question I would pose to people who watch football programs and who discuss football with their mates is "how often do you and your mates disagree on football". My experience is it happens all the time, look at this forum.
TV pundits might differ slightly but generally they all sing from the one script, TV companies don't want unsightly arguments on screen. That isn't how it works, we like football because it is about opinions, we can all have our say. TV punditry is sanitizing the debate and should be ignored.

I reserve my real dislike for the plastic Irishman and Alan Hansen 's pet monkey.
 
Can't look past Neville surely?

After him Kilbane, Jenas and (guilty secret) Souness.


The worst has to be either Henry or Redknapp.

I'd imagine the person who decided to hire Henry on such a long and lucrative contract is now unemployed.
Apparently they were in the studio for our game yesterday.

Ex Arsenal and ex rs players to analise a Spurs v Everton match. You couldn't make it up.

Giles is woeful and should've packed in pundit duties years ago. Dunphy was amusing when I was young but like Giles is outta touch with the modern club games and should've packed in long ago.

Don't like Neville anymore mate. He's made the list of ex pros who've tried to push through Stones to Chelsea. Merson is actually nearly crying in one of today's papers over it lol
