What a cracking days racing provided by Eurosport today specially for Fathers Day:D
I just wish they would sort these commentators out!
I don’t know who he is but that bloke that flapped his gums during the World Superbikes had as much enthusiasm as I have about competitive knitting:w00t:
My day was saved by Barnacle and Whitt at BSB, especially Whitt’s interview with Guy Martin… Classic comedy moment when he was describing the rainfall:D:D
Please Eurosport, get some decent bike racing commentators:cool:
Missed the second BSB race as it was delayed by rain… and the delayed start clashed with dinner. I’ll try and catch the re-run…there is a re-run isn’t there?
Er…I didn’t set it…As it was father’s day I had full control of the remote all afternoon, so I didn’t think I needed to set the box… but we have a rule that there’s no TV at dinner time, and by the time dinner was starting the kids were fighting each other and the last thing on my mind was the racing:)
I agree CM. Warwick Nowland’s not too bad, but the main commentator didn’t have much character. He kept starting a sentence and then petering out as he had nothing to end it with!Great racing in both World and BSB, I won’t ruin it for those that haven’t seen it yet. I can’t believe the corner speed the pro’s get in conditions like they had at Snetterton.It’s great the way that the commentators have access to all the riders, bosses, mechanics etc. It gives you a great insight into what goes on and you get to know the riders. I think it’s the first time I’ve seen Guy Martin interviewed, brilliant!!
Eurosport are CRAP! They have the best commentators for BSB, and the worlds most boring, ill-informed, under-educated and irrelevant commentators for WSB. Who CARES what these twats think? Most of the time they’re wrong, and even then they’re commenting ages after an event has happened. They have as much life in them as a geriatric Tory MP. Get rid of them!
And what’s with constantly changing the schedule!? Sky+ is crap! You set it to record and it ends up taping the end of the previous program (which often happens to be the winners interview from the previous race you haven’t seen yet GRRRRRRR!!!) and then ends early!! It’s all digital, there’s absolutely NO reason why the sky box can’t be told when the program will actually start and stop if the schedule changes. They need to sort their act out. I’m fed up of paying to have programs cut short, me told the results of a race I haven’t seen, to suffer YouTube style crap image quality and listen to two twats who know as much about Superbike racing as I do about Sheep Herding.
Yep, we’re a passionate bunch, but come on, if you’re providing a service, at least make it match the expectations you impress upon us with your advertising, tossers!
well V+ seemed to work I got all the races, how about Nitro n Corsa 'kin excellent stuff, and the shakester stopping to give them all head start and still do the business :w00t:
