Watched the match on a stream from Hesgoal.
American programme, only went down three times during the match. Only problem was that as well as the commentator and co-commentator, I could hear another commentator in the background! So it wasn't the best sound quality. However, when Dale Stephens came on, the co-commentator said "Dale joined when I was still at Brighton". Couldn't work out who he was? Anyone else watch that stream?

I watched that stream. Only went down once, right as the teams came out, and refreshing it I got the Derby game!

Mine stopped each time it went to an ad break! Took ages to get it back at half time.

I’d been trying to work out who the co-commentator was, too, and the Dale Stephens reference was what made me realise who it was.

Yep, Matt Upson as co-commentator, he's definitely one of the better ones. Sadly they still employ Andy Townsend to do a lot of the games. Christ knows why.

Chris Hughton was in the studio too. You could almost hear him salivating over a solid 1-0 win with a good defensive performance.

EDIT: Just as a I say that, Andy Townsend gets introduced on the commentary team for the evening match,

Upson seemed to keep calling Lamptey 'Lafferty' though which was annoying. I thought Hughton was very respectful and professional in the studio. Wouldn't expect anything less from him to be fair. He's an absolute gentleman.
