Sky Coverage

[grants girl]

Can anyone out there tell me why Sky now seem to favour Ian "I know it all" Ward in favour of Charles Colvile.

I love watching cricket but would prefer Charles back

 

[Tomm NCCC]

Nope.

I dont know why, Charles was doing a great job, Weather Charles has said he wants a less frequent role or something

The best thing about MR Coalville is he is the only one who sounds remotely enthusiastic. In the twenty20 cup, I thought he was going to spontaneously combust

 

[BoyBrumby]

Prefer Ward myself. Sorry.

He's a real miss. I love the stupid things he says and the way he gets over enthusiastic.

Ian Ward had all the enthusiasm of a plank.

Bring back Charles Sky

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Prefer Ward myself. Sorry.

Yeah, me too. He doesn't shout 'that's a huge hit' to the fifteenth four of a Twenty20 that just clears the ropes.

 

[Armadillo]

Colville for me. A commentary team always needs one person that has no experience of first class cricket IMO.

 

[Tom Halsey]

The "THAT'S HUGE!!!! Oh, no it isn't..." is legendary.

I also like the way Colville doesn't take himself as seriously as Ward seems to (I remember him once starting off an article with the words "I, in all probability, am a complete prat.")

However, I like Ward aswell.

Because Colville's a poncey, southern, public schoolboy sort who neither talks sense nor manages to talk his nonsense in a bearable accent.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Yeah, me too. He doesn't shout 'that's a huge hit' to the fifteenth four of a Twenty20 that just clears the ropes.

If it's a four, how can it clear the ropes?

and Ian Ward isn't?

It was late at night...

and Ian Ward isn't?

I find his voice almost listenable, which gives him the edge.

 

[Tomm NCCC]

They should give the presenters slot to Charlie Dagnall, anyone remeber him in commentary about a year ago on Sky Sports? his voice is 'unique'

Even bigger prat than Colville from what I remember.

 

[Langeveldt]

They should give it all to Bumble Lloyd, and pay him fat overtime
