Watching the match this afternoon the commentator came out with 3 gems.

1) Cardiff beat Derby 6 - 1 Chopra got all 4 of them. :confused:

2) From a long distance shot of a player preparing to take a free kick, "he's got that look in his eye". Has the commentator got bionic eyesight or just high powered binoculars to see so far away?

3) The weather is back again. :confused: Isn't it always here?

The Chopra one was great and the weather he came out with after it had been bouncing down for about 5 minutes and he said it as though it had only just started!

Andy Gray came out with a good one this afternoon, he said Birmingham need to keep there foot on the gas because if Man City score they will find themselves behind?
YOU DONT SAY ANDY LOL!!!

There are loads if you listen out for them.

Commentors come out with the most obvious waffle.

i remember kevin keegan saying he is a far better player without the ball.

"And here we are on lap 73 of a 70 lap race ....." - the one and only Murray Walker.

What about Hanson saying Man utd will never win owt with kid's.
It's an old one i know but that has haunted him ever since he said that hasn't it lol.

i remember kevin keegan saying he is a far better player without the ball.

Can understand what Keegan meant,he was never the most skillful of players,but his speed and awareness of where the ball was going to be played meant he didn't have to touch the ball until he scored,he just let the rest of the team do the work and he finished it off

Gary Birtles once said of Wes Morgan: "No wonder they call Morgan "The Major Oak", he's like a rock!"

I loved the other day when Arsenal beat Tottenham and my brother shouted 'he's got acres of space' at some point in the game in a Scottish accent and soon after Andy Gray said exactly the same thing. I think my brother plays to much FIFA.

"0-0 from the German viewpoint as we go into the break"

Germany vs Austria a couple of years ago.

Surely the best (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VCJVZ2I9zY#t=0m23s).

It is a quality moment, and should be repeated more often.

Heard more than once when a commentator speaks about the 45 0r 60 minute mark: "If these RESULTS stay the same.............." Latest scores?

The Colemanballs when he commentated on Cuban Alberto Juantorena at the Olympics: "And Juantorena opens his legs and shows his class!"

I keep hearing about players who pass up the chance to shoot themselves...

I seen to remember some years ago - "and now all the goals from the Rochdale - Shrewsbury match, where the game finished 0-0"
