The 1st Annual John Motson Rorschach Test

[jimmylibel]

I always think that Motson makes a poor game seem even worse. Thinks he's a pundit and for all his supposed 'stat' knowledge isn't actually that knowledgeable about the game.

...or going on about how it was Stefanovic that went with his arm up into Gerrard's face, Stefanovic who Gerrard was then looking for for doing it, and Stefanovic getting booked for that challenge.....when some impostor with a shirt that said 'Vignal' on the back was shown in the replays and standing there getting shown the yellow.

Utterly clueless.

 

But the BBC delude themselves that he is some sort of national treasure.

[The Hitman]

He's terrible,the worst commentator out there by a mile.

When Vignal came in and t****** Stevie,he was harping on about Stefanovich for ages.

It took him fully five minutes to figure out who it really was.

 

As for the "Cisseeeeee" moment,that was absolutely absurd.Sensationalist commentating.

or when Crouchy came on, to a chorus of boos, and Motson sais "It's the traditional welcome for a returning former player"

 

nothing to do with the fact that he also played for Southampton then, Motty?

he also said that he went from QPR to portsmouth, and back to QPR before going to villa

[Stevie H]

last night he sounded more than ever like he was doing an alan partridge impression.

[Bootle Buck]

The commentator they used for the US coverage was awful too. He kept saying we need a Portsmouth goal to make the game interesting. When we scored he said this is exactly what we didn't need. At the end he was willing the ball in.
