We see a lot about players affected by what they see on social media. One thing I don’t get with all the money in football is why players have to have direct involvement with social media instead of their posts being done for them and responses screened by handlers who post their social media material. It would still be a problem perhaps because family and friends could still see the ugly stuff on social media although the handlers could quickly block and hide abusive responses. These “handlers” could be part of player entourages or people employed by the club.

£9 pounds for Tyler and Smith...**** off!

They should be paying us to take those 2, Smith is crap and Tyler isn't what he was.

The only thing that really matters to me is commentators, tbh...though some of the pundits/presenters are good, I don't listen to any of them really.

Tyldesley or Dury and McCoist, for me...who was that co-commentator, that used to do Champions League games when it was on ITV?

He should be up there instead of a few of the others.

Though Richard Keys is a scumbag, he is easily a better presenter than Jake Humphreys imo.

Humphreys is the worst out of everyone on that list.

The ones I can remember from the ITV days where Atkinson, Pleat and later on Jim Beglin, he was pretty good.

Yeah, Clive and Jim would be my pair...though Pleat and Atkinson were good too.

Though the last time Big Ron did some Champions League commentary, didn't work out so well for him :lol:

Yeah I quite liked Atkinson as well till he made a fool of himself and Pleat was good value for the mistakes he used to make, some of his quotes are hilarious.

Definitely, I liked the guy who was main commentator next to him as well, can't remember his name. La Liga was quality in that era.
