Posted August 17, 200717 yr Trevor Francis was the pundit on the commentary for the Reading match over here in US. I have to say I thought he was pretty fair and offered some decent comments. Dare I say it but he was even pretty favourable to Chelsea at times. He was very complimentary about Jose's tactical changes at half time and even said there was no other manager around who would have been so brave. Hopefully they will have him on again as he an improvement on some of the other regulars! I remember David Pleat virtually willing the ball in for Watford when he sat in on the away game last season.
August 17, 200717 yr think yourself lucky. we had phil "my nose is huge and im the most biased person ever" thompson on sky sports. he nearly wet himself when reading scored, and sounded like he barely wanted to tell us when chelsea scored. my mate was watching the game on the net (hes a manc by the way) and texted me after half an hour to say we were murdering them and should be 2 or 3 up. cue big nose in the sky studio "reading are controlling the game and really should be ahead. chelsea havent been in the game" ridiculous.
August 17, 200717 yr The Big Nosed Scouse Git hysterically raving over the Readng game is just one more reason to hate Scousers. But anyway. Good old Trev, nice bloke. Married my wife's cousin. Not that I ever met the bloke, but my misses always spoke highly of him.
August 18, 200717 yr yeah us over hear tend to get people who weren't paid off by the other team. Trevor's fun to listen too.
