Since the Burnsey conversation takes over so many threads, I thought I’d just create a poll. Not sure if the 3rd option is necessary, but it seems Swanny was the problem for some! I’m yes. I like him, either way, with or without Swanny!
I quite like Burnsy, and he's a definite improvement on the last berk on our channel, but he needs someone to share the load so he doesn’t have to be talking practically every second. Most other channels seem to have 2 on comms, so why don't we? Not Swanny though, he can **** off.
He was good with a footballing experienced co commentator, but as others have said, he preferred Swanny or on his own, or that’s what it seemed. He talks a lot when nothing much is happening, which in a lot of games last season was the case. The one thing I really hate about some commentaries is the bias, the one thing you can never throw at Burnsey. So I’m glad we don’t have a biased commentary to listen to, for me, that’s 100 times worse than Burnsey waffling!
I've enjoyed his radio in the morning. I've encountered him at music venues and found him to be self important and a bit rude.
