Watched the game today think it was collins doing the commentary thought he was very good . (Think it was collins apologies if I'm wrong)
Yes it was, my stream didn’t work again so I listened to Benno and Barnes, seen a few complimentary posts on Facebook aswel, supposed to have been a vast improvement on those two
He was alright but **** me I'm sure he was shouting down the microphone. I'll always give him praise though because I still feel bad for last season at Rochdale away. We were playing ****e, might have been losing at the time. All of a sudden the crowd start singing the "for Brazil" song. I was pissed and started ranting. Pretty much shouting "**** me, we're playing ****ing ****, why are we singing about a ****ing useless **** who isn't even here any more, he was ****ing ****e anyway". Soon realised it was because he was at the game, about 2 rows in front of me. I said "sorry Danny, you were canny really" but I'm not sure he believed me.
Danny Collins & Frankie (Lad does the matchday announcements) were a vast improvement on Barnes & Benno.
I listened to Barnes & Benno on radio Newcastle - Jesus you couldn't tell what was happening half the time. As soon as we got anywhere near their goal Benno was shouting over the top of Barnes and you just didn't have a clue. Ps Barnsy if you are reading this please stop with the irrelevant facts we are not interested what the opposition goalkeeper brothers dog had for breakfast.
danny and frankie (that the other lad's name?) did well. Less of the constant reminders about the goalkeepers kit colour or a players 2 colour boots, less of the wandering away from the football and missing half the action...luckily, they had a nice stable stream as well and both seemed very informed about all players.
Dont listen to Gary Bennett very often. What I notice is, for example, one of our players has the ball, the commentator says 'he is lining up a shot' and we know the result of that shot first by the 'groooaannnn' made by Bennett before the main commentator tells us what happened. It gets right on my tits! I could just smash his ****ing face in!
