Announcer today.

[Ballinpigpubs13]

Did this muppet need to remind us that were unlucky enough to witness today's game that we were losing at half time and then to antagonise everybody further by saying “Sheffield utd 1-2 Fleetwood” at full time. Knob

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

Yeah, because I was really enjoying the game until he came on the tannoy...

I think Gazza needs to take his understudy to one side and politely explain to him that the last thing you say to the departing fans, when they've just lost at home, in THAT manner is "Wishing you all a pleasant evening' - FFS!!

 

[zablade]

The guy is utterly useless, and an embarrassment everytime Sinclair is off

(why Sinclair is allowed to be off to attend a Country music concert on a match day I don't know)

Surely we can hire a DJ from Hallam or Radio pig to do the job on these one off occasions, this guy sounds like he won a raffle in the pub to do the job.

 

[oaklandrdblade]

Believe he works for Sinclair. Don't we always lose when he's there?

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

He is awful, just plain awful.

 

[Punk Blade]

Often the referee gets booed off. Sometimes opposition players. On particularly bad days the home team.

First time I have ever seen the announcer get booed.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Ha ha but nobody would care about the knob/muppet if we'd won...just something else to focus the angst upon

Second time, He got booed the last time he did the job as well.

 

[GB10]

It was cringeworthy - that's the last time I want to see or hear him at the lane please united .

 

[Jonboy60]

Fuck me, you've just given NC his next excuse. Blame it on the stand in announcer.

 

[metty]

And who the fuck is Nigel CLOFF

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

But we lost and were shite for all to see. I didn't need reminding of the score as I was sat watching it.

 

[WhiteHawk]

What was that shit he came out with after he said the score at full time?

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

But we lost and were shite for all to see. I didn't need reminding of the score as I was sat watching it.

Obviously he's a guy that doesn't know much about football, and maybe plays badminton in his spare time..he probably whistled all the way home satisfied on a job well done, blissfully unaware of his near-lynching

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

He is awful, just plain awful.

But fitted in so well today

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Called Brian?

 

[SandyMcBlade]

I think his undertaker overcoat set the mood for the whole afternoon ........

 

[Harry's Game]

Who Clough or the announcer? The description closely fits both from what I can tell

 

[Karaoke Blade]

He actually cheered me up at the end, his final comments were Pythonesque.

 

[LoughboroBlade]

If it's the same guy I remember when I last witnessed a Sinclair-free game then the guy is, quite simply, excruciating. I think Sinclair deliberately gets a dreadful understudy a couple of games a season to make him look good.

 

[S60 unitedite]

I thought it was funny in a way it was like he hadn't watched the game or heard the crowd i liked how bizarre it was x

 

[BrianDeanesSon]

Thought he was good pre-game. Just misread the situation at the end & people took out their frustration at the performance on this poor fella

 

[finlaytheblade]

Ha ha but nobody would care about the knob/muppet if we'd won...just something else to focus the angst upon

it was though he was rubbing salt in open wounds or a pigs plant.i wouldnt have noticed if we had won but that guy really annoyed me he obviously has no idea of what football is all about cant see him getting that job again nieve in the extreme.

 

[wardonia_blade]

Just thankful that the stand-in bloke didn't do the Shred tribute.

 

[William Henry Foulkes]

A tactically placed decoy to draw fire from the team's (Turner's?) performance today. Poor bloke's getting a lot of grief that maybe could be directed towards the players, the ones who actually played in the game.

 

[1889]

'So at half time its Sheffield United 1 Fleetwood 2, plenty to talk about there and then we'll be back for the second half'

WTF, did he really say that, I couldn't believe my ears. It was as though that was his first ever football match, mind you the same could be said of Iain fucking Turner!

 

[Bladesway]

Yep it was the announcer who ruined the match for me as well. The 90 minutes of sack numbing rubbish served up had nothing to do with the booing.

 

[Bladesway]

Expecting a blast of posts from you in the coming hours HG.
