It'd be kinder to have him put down. Hearing him ramble on in his recent MotD commentaries is tragic, though pure nostalgia will bring me fondish memories of him.

ITV commentators annoy the shit out of me, Brian Moore was the best for me, and some of the Sky commentators are good (maybe not Tyler) and I have a guilty pleasure for Alan Green. He's a bastard and just says it like it is, and he's responsible for one of my favourite lines of commentary ever during WC 2006 when a player was rolling around on the floor and the stretcher party came on: "Here come the palbearers!".
