[Albion] MOTD2 match thread

[Beach Hut]

Everton look totally out of sorts at present, needs a big name to get them pulling together otherwise Wazza will be a Championship player

 

[super-seagulls]

Barton McStampy.

 

[GT49er]

Hmmm....the Duffy and Dunk fan club. I think we are over the radar.

No, Jermaine Jenas going ga-ga (quite rightly) over Dunk and Duffy.

 

[GT49er]

Nah not just yet, on the periphery. Long may it continue.

Not quite sure about that.......did you not listen to Jermaine Jenas? Maybe just starting to come into the focus of the more intelligent pundits.

 

[OzMike]

Great for us if by mid season Everton and Palace are almost rubber stamped for relegation.

 

[Hamilton]

Jenas is tying Neville up in knots here, which I'm not sure is that hard.

The trouble is that Jenas has the clueless Chapman in the hot seat. I really rate Jenas. Intelligent guy and I hope he realises that he can add more value in football by getting his coaching badges and getting a job in the game.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Why are people pretending there's even the remotest chance of Everton getting relegated? Or of Unsworth getting the job?

Neither is possible.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Jenas is an intelligent bloke isn't he. Seeing him sat next to Phil Neville and his constant spiel of cliches and football truisms is a lesson in contrasts.

He's too good for the match of the day sofa - or more accurately, he's exactly who should be sat on the match of the day sofa every week . If we had Jenas and Murphy there all the time instead of Shearer and his ilk we might actually start to get the level of analysis that is deserved

Agree with all the previous comments about Jermaine Jenas - and not just because he was bigging up our double D, but agree with the Danny Murphy bit as well. People who can talk intelligently and knowledgeably...... A bit like Liam Rosenior.

 

[Mackenzie]

We listened to the Talksport commentary on the way home, to say Barton McStampy is not a fan of Unsworth would be a massive understatement. Said Unsworth was too fat, not a 'mens football' manager, and, was only a youth coach.

I heard that too, Barton is a **** isn't he!

 

[DavidRyder]

Barton was beyond embarrassing yesterday. Not sure what the commentator with him (sorry can't remember his name) must have thought, being lumbered with someone that gives zero proper insight/input into the game, and instead seems to insult people.

 

[Whoislloydy]

If you missed MOTD2 the Brighton game has just been uploaded to YouTube

EDIT: IGNORE - the quality is so bad and the highlights are still images for some reason?

Sam Matterface?

I caught a bit of it yesterday and it seems that Barton has fitted into the classic Talksport mould of winding people up and generally talking nonsense or hyped up comments. I'm sure some of what he said has a bit of truth in it, but he comes across as such as bitter and angry man, that I can't really bear more than a few minutes with him on the wireless.

That's exactly why they hired him. Just like Durham in the afternoons. Say any old contentious bolllloxx just to get "irate" fans to phone in.
