EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

[Moodybluebird]

She may know her onions football wise, but her constant wittering is driving me nuts. Don't these people realise that less is more, instead of beating your eardrums into submission.

As I said in a previous thread, she sounds like Glenn Hoddle, has the same poor pronunciation as Hoddle and I'm sure like Hoddle believes she's a tactical genius.

Tuerto has the right attitude. Press the mute button or at the very least turn down the sound to its bare minimum.

Frigging dreadful.
Spoilt a classic game.
Her voice was like chalk on a blackboard

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

Yes, she did my head in too, with her dreadul cockney accent. Was she on speed on something else illegal as she couldn't shut the feck up?

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

Useless. Like Danny Dyer on speed.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

Far to many experts employed who can barely speak English. Mainly cockneys.

No commentator should be allowed to commentate on a football match until they have listened to a hundred hours of Barrie Davies.

And what the hell did she mean by "... playing low..."?

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

she's been about the best in this tournament, although there is a touch of hoddle about her.

what she says actually adds something to the game, a bit of insight into the tactical battle panning out.
I've listened to Danny Murphy a fair bit this tournament and I'm yet to hear him say anything remotely interesting

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

The main commentator (whoever he is) drove me to switch the sound off ... again! His voice is awful. Oh and now we've got f***ing Tyldesley!!!

Ally mcCoist is the best co commentator

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

She’s very knowledgable and well prepared but is dominating the commentating way too much. Every action doesn’t need a full technical analysis. Just let the pictures tell the story sometimes. Maybe trying a bit too hard to show she’s worthy of the job.

I’d rather listen to her before many of her male counterparts though.

[Joe Gillis]

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

She was awful, I remember a time when the commentator invited the 'expert' to give some insight, these days the commentator can't get a word in edgeways. BTW, how hard is it to say 'Azpilicueta' properly!

[The Bloop]

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

She obviously has a great deal of knowledge about the game and expresses that knowledge very well. But she talks to much, way too much, through the game.
As for Ally McCoist - he doesn't say much, and long may that continue.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

In extra time after Spain went 5-3 up she said that it was all done and dusted and then in the same breath she said that she wouldn't be suprised if Croatia struck back.
Talk about covering all bases.
I didn't think she added much tactically that wasn't obvious but she was no worse than Danny Murphy who sends me to sleep.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

She obviously knows her stuff,but its only her opinion. Recently football a game played by testosterone fuelled egotistical young men has turned into a nerdy science. Its always whether one team can impose their game over the opposition. Spain were always going to try to push their full backs as high as they could and Croatia were keeping it compact and wait for the mistake.

The problem with her was she spoke so often she often contradicted whatever she said 5 mins earlier.

How come i grew up with a single commentator and never thought i needed someone to tell me what to think. Maybe to tell me what is happening off the ball who is making runs the camera is not picking up.

She talked too much, but do we really need them ?
