the worst (or best) football announcer ever

[MannyJello]

forever more, whenever some poster on this board makes some crack about the silly announcing done by American soccer television commentators, because admittedly American announcers are by and large retarded, i will point them to one Mr. Ray Hudson and this here clip and the debate will be silenced.

Good lord, man. Tears the size of pineapple chunks? Did he really say that, or was I drunk? Or both?

Bloody hell thats bad

[lauren]

braver than a bullfighter with no knickers on!!!! WTF

[Scott]

Ray Hudson....................a legend.

[The Moos]

Did he just say "braver than a matador in a pink tutu"?

That is one wierd commentator.

Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Hudson for more on him and lots of quotes:

"Ruud Van Nistelrooy says to Lilian Thuram, 'You're my little lollipop here tonight, mate!'"

Kovalenko for me was outstanding also in his football, not just his gritty performance. He's a footballer; he's got great feet. He's a good link man, a great outlet, he challenges ... he would stab his grandmother in the eye for another bowl of porridge.

Without penetration, it’s just masturbation, and right now, we’re playing with ourselves.

Come back Brian Moore. All is forgiven. Oh I forgot, he's dead.

he's the coked up geordie who we all love so much... I wish sky replace andy gray with him, and tyler (who I'm sure has connections to the dark side of the force) with the bland american.

he sounds like the darts comentator sid wadell to me. but not quite as funny. still a bit of a mentalist though.
