Goodbye Clive!

Gutted to hear that Clive Tyldesley has been "let go" by ITV.
He has been my favourite commentator for many a year.

So many fond memories are accompanied by his voice, none more than
"And Solsjær has won it!"

Goodbye Clive, thanks for the memories.

He is awful but McCoist is miles worse (on commentary).

McCoist isnt the most insightful, but you get the sense that he is delighted and feels privileged to be commentating. There are some miserable ones out there e.g., Dixon/Murphy who seem to have spent too much time listening to Lawrenson.

You get the impression Lee Dixon commentates with a permanent Jack Dee expression on his face

This. I can't stand the unimpressed tone they transmit. Not just the lack of energy, but the self-regarding, knowing aspect of it.

I don't mind McCoist.

Lee Dixon would make a 5-5 draw sound boring.

McCoist is iconic. Scottish commentators usually hit different
