    Nick Barnes and Gary Bennett. These two must be the worst commentators in the media. Barns go more than 30 second without going into a coughing fit and all Bennett does is moan and groan before he make a comment which is nearly always Sunderland defence must concentrate just before the opposition scores. What a pair of dicks

    Aye...Benno always comes out with, "Oh"...and "Urgh"...and "Ahh"....instead of describing his reactions.

    ffs, Benno has just said, Norwich are still in the game ....wtf !

    barnes can waffle on about 10 mins about frig all and benno repeats himself with the defence has to concentrate about 100 times.

    I Would never even contemplate listening to this station until it bears a name that is representative of the region it is supposed to represent..

    I wonder where Gatesy is now, I'd love the bloke back. He had so much passion and honesty about his opinions.

    Benno is a terrible co-commentatror/pundit. But in person he is absolutely class. Very funny bloke and lovely lad as well. I just don't think he is very good on the radio

    Gates worked for Century FM North East (now Real Radio North East) on The Legends Football Phone-In until May 2007, when he allegedly attempted to join BBC Radio Newcastle.

    Gates is now a pig farmer.

    Shows how much footy has changed mate. Benno got a yellow card, end of. Now he would get a red card, 5 game ban and about 50 grand fine.

    I've just watched it and I stand corrected.

    Speedies red was harsh but **** him, one of the players I despised, like Dennis Wise, hated that prick too.

    I watched it from the Roker End next to the away fans! Funny as **** watching the lads in the paddock give the little ****er a dig whenm benno threw him in!! Speedie deserved a red as he targetted Benno's knee which from he had just recovered from a big operation iirc

    I'd bet he's in a bookies in Barnard Castle.

    Edit, just had look, he's got a pig farm in Haswell <laugh> Used to see him in Barny regular after he retired from football.
