Football lacks a Sid Waddell type commentator.

stuart hall, waxed lyrical about our beloved game, but then descended into a sewer of his own making.

Was clever getting that free kick
He earned that penalty
He’s allowed to go down
There was contact
He put a shift in

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
Stuart Hall commentated on Liverpool v Burnley at Anfield .He nearly ran us over in his Roller as he parked up
Then he staggered out of the car ,the worse for wear and gave us a wave and a cheery hallo as he wobbled into the ground.

You know what you're going to get from Burnley ( or words to that effect)
Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
Stproc covered it but I can never understand a commentator using the words " he'd earned the right to go down there". Part of what's wrong with the game these days.

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
"Starting to ask questions"
"Balls in the right area"
And what is it with some commentators obsession with identifying players by their nationality?
"Great shot by the Argentinian"
"Fine save by the Frenchman"
Just use their names, it"s written on the back of their shirts!

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
110 %
Famous Footballers name followed by the team Wayne Rooneys Derby for example.
You can’t win the title in August/September/October but you can lose it.
Cultured or wand of a left foot
Six pointer
This game needs a goal
Genuine pace
Top top
They have that in their locker.

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
And the phrases nearly always used on Sky commentary when covering Burnley
"Just lacking that little bit of quality in key areas"
"You have to admire their work rate"
Martin Tyler commentating on any live match
"Did you and Jamie play in that game 20 years ago Gary, when there was an incident very similar to this one with the ball ending up in the back of the net"?

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
"Putting his body on the line"........this expression is now used for any vaguely energetic bit of defending or whenever someone happens to block a shot.
I think it was first used on Sky's Rugby League coverage in the days of Eddie and Steve and it's now become ridiculously over-used.

"Took it with aplomb"
Aplomb - a word never used in any other context than a goal being scored.

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
All of the ball needs to cross the line
Just needed to get his eyebrows on that corner
The manager is warming up his subs
The was almost an unbelievable goal
If it wasn’t for that defender he would have been clear on goal
There was a coming together with that tackle
The away team never turned up so they were played off the park
That was never a nil nil game

Steve McManaman...To be very honest
Glen Hoddle...Very much so
The amount of times they say this during a game on BT commentary.

Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
One that has irritated me in recent times is "What a strike!" for a piledriver into the top corner morphing into "What a hit!" I wince every time I hear this expression.
Re: dull commentator phrases and comments.
Saved by the woodwork. I’ve never understood that one. It’s not like the posts move in or the bar drops down. It just missed the opening. At this level. Another I don’t get. You can get punished at any level if you drop a clanger.
