Phuket Man Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Watching the Spurs Palace game and Phil Neville is driving me up the wall. Surely his bosses must realise how annoying his voice is. Not too bad in the studio but as Co commentator he drives me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't speak ill of the dead, BB. Saw him play cricket for Greenmount in the Bolton League. Just 3 things wrong with his game: couldn't bat, couldn't bowl, couldn't field. (Apologies to Sir Geoffrey). Phil was reckoned good enough to play for Lancashire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bredbury Blue Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I am not speaking ill of the dead (to be honest I wasn't aware he'd passed), I just happen to like the fact the dad's name was neville neville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmine Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Yes Phil's clearly a little retarded so its none too surprising he's a boring, uninformative commentator. I thought the commentary for the Spurs/Palace game was probably worse than the match itself, which is saying something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonsense! I don't like gary neville's allegiance, obviously, but I think he's one of the better pundits so your theory above is wrong. Phil though...bobbins!

He's a very poor commentator that struggles to string a sentence together. But this doesn't go along with the RAG agenda of everyones jealous of us and all that tired old baloney.

mommysboy Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Me too. I think he could do with being more involved in the game, perhaps as a coach, or manager in the lower leagues. I find him hysterical- in the wrong way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a Spurs v Chelsea game where Drury got up on his soap box, "David Luiz and Harry Kane going at it, toe to toe..bicep to bicep.." I thought he was going to go through the whole human anatomy before Jim Beglin dived in with a sliding tackle and stopped him in his tracks. One of the very few times that I've wanted that droning bore TO interrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel2003 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 He is just another "has been", who played at a time where everybody obviously was better than today's players, and wants to squeeze the lemon as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
