Bloke on the Tannoy last night.

You're lucky you didn't have to put up with the tv commentator. He talked non stop throughout the whole game, about 60% of his verbal diarrhoea was about Brighton's past, present and future, maybe 20% about Afcb and at most 20% about the actual game taking place in front of him. Five minutes after Brighton's first goal he was still so busy talking about Ferguson's glittering future that he barely noticed our attack in their penalty area. Glen Murray meanwhile came out with such priceless gems as "the manager will be hoping his substitutions will make a difference". Do millionaire ex players really need paying to tell us what we already know or can see?
Basically it was like sitting behind two blokes who'd got free tickets to see a game they didn't follow between two teams they neither knew nor cared about and who spent the entire time talking about something else.

Bristol Rovers used to have an announcer called Keith Valley. During a derby against City he read through their team, which included Junior Bent as substitute. He announced "And the substitute is Bent, and he probably is" - not surprisingly he was sacked for this.
