Announcer for the games

Post by tim15 »

The one we had on sunday (sorry don't know his name) seemed to be a bit muffled with his talking and going at nineteen to the dozen.

Then we get Mr Dagnall whose the exact opposite, I'd liked to have seen Matt Poole again, as he's at least got a sense of humour and a bit more banter with the players.

I'm hoping that when the new stadium is finished and the new sound system is in that they advertise for someone of whatever gender to do the job properly.

Would even go for a member's poll to find who would be the majorities choice.

What do others think?
And on the 7th day, god rested, he stood patiently and awaited the green light to start the game from SKY!

It would have been nice to wish Martin Corry happy birthday. I am sure he would have apppreciated such a gesture.

Could barely hear a word on Sunday, except when he announced the playing of Abba's "Dancing Queen" for Austin Healey. :smt005

I understand that Daggers wasn't available on Sunday, the announcer was Gary Sherrard, but I can assure you he only does it when circumstances force it.

Thanks Rizzo,

Gary seems like a nice guy but obviously does it as he's "asked" to and tries to get it done at 500 miles an hour.

But yes not to wish Corry a happy birthday even at the end of the game is a bit harsh :smt018 :smt013

Thats a massive sigh of releif the club should keep it that Sherrard is only used when absoloutely necessary.

A little professional coaching and Gary would be a changed man! You know who to contact!
