Orlando_Trustful Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hunt ‘rattled the crossbar’ according to Giddings who had clearly been on the sauce judging his commentary or lack thereof. Byers’ attempt was fantastic and deserved a goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwinowl Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Long old season. We’ll batter these at home. Just one of those days. Let them have their day in the sun. Long game is all that matters and promotion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOwlsofDodworth Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Why do some hate on Andy Giddings? Seems like a nice chap, doing a good job on the radio. Always thought radio Sheffield was fantastic with its coverage. Given birth to some top commentators in the past, too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staton, Walker etc we’re decent. Giddings is not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperwinngardensowl Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hidings rambles too much TBH and sometimes you don’t know what’s happening on the pitch. even goals sometimes take a while to be confirmed. his problem is that some of his predecessors were excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marconi Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Corner to Wednesday from a deflection No the refs given a goal kick. He shooots, deflected for a corner. The officials say goal kick. That goes out for a throw to Morcambe. Linesman says Wednesday ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your listening to the game and not watching you've not got a single clue what's happening until the bells in the net, no build up play or anything.

Always someone to project our frustration and dissatisfaction on. We've got it good! I find his commentary on our away games on iFollow generally very poor. Him and Laws are like a walking cliché. We were very slightly on top today at times and it was ‘Wednesday are going for the sucker punch’ and something like ‘if this was a boxing match Morecambe would be on the ropes’. That’s amateurish and even though I am watching the game you expect a bit more insight from those guys. It’s all very basic. Radio Sheffield do a good job covering football, but for me he is not a good commentator. Paul Walker was streets ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatter Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 9 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: It really isn't There really were some awful things about the commentary today though. First two minutes just the dreaded white noise First ten minutes was full of long pauses with just crowd noise and no co commentator. Then the return of ‘ There’s a goal at Chesterfield or let’s go over to Barnsley’ whilst the game we’re paying for gets interrupted. Not a dig at any of the commentators, just the woeful Ifollow service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
