    And a fine looking fella he is as well. Decent each way odds and he was only beaten by a useful horse by the looks of it.

    When you say ‘on’ him I presume you mean just betwise rather than riding ?

    Yeah betting. My mate rides him out so he always let's me know when he's going well on the gallops. Ex Godolphin horse, he only cost £800. They didn't even know if he'd make the racecourse when they took him on. He's went on to win class 2 and 3 events on ITV on the weekends. He's been a right money spinner...

    Blimey, £800. He’s won 6 races and placed loads of times. Connections must be delighted. Good to see.

    7/33 is his record and he's won 46k in prize money. It just shows if you're savvy enough you don't need to spend a lot.

    WTF <laugh>

    Don't tell me any Charlton fans have been offended that somebody was favouring a non-league club over a professional outfit? That comes with the territory of playing these teams in the FA Cup <doh>

    We're used to commentators on Valley Pass who are totally unbiased <whistle>.

    It's bizarre. A bit of good-natured insulting used to be a way of integrating anyone who was unusual in some way.

    I should have just muted the commentary, instead of whinging about it.

    Fair play to Jermaine Beckford for his response.

    Yes, fair play to Jermaine Beckford if he felt the need to apologise - he did it quickly. BUT, what exactly has he got to apologise for ? Presumably he’s upset some no-necks on social media who disagreed with something he said. Give me strength. Just grow up people and stop getting upset about trivia.

    And there’s a very easy answer to prevent yourself being upset by comments made about you on Twatter and Love-my-own- Face-book.

    By way of example I can honestly say that I have never been offended or annoyed by anything that has been posted about me on either site :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I was more annoyed about Matterface if I’m honest.

    But I should have known better. I thought an FA Cup second round game would be a bit beneath Matterface. I shouldn’t have been surprised by the half arsed drivel he came out with.

    Unfortunately I grew up spoiled by the likes of Clive Tyldesley.

    Did either commentator mention the fact that it was actually a bloody good cup-tie, which could well have ended in an upset?

    As a summariser Steve Brown has been a revelation. He does what a summariser is supposed to do, tell you things that he can see that you can't. Also proves that you can be biased but still be honest.

    Sniff of an upset maybe ? I can see us fielding a full strength team whereas Norwich will be more concerned about their PL status so will probably have a few from outside the first 11
