Yep big Joe!

Barry Davies is a much better commentator than John Motson. Motson is okay, but he's got no sense of humour (those forced chuckles) and the scripted stuff he tops and tails major cup and international matches with is generally very cringe-worthy (e.g. when Denmark won Euro 92 - "it's dramatic, it's delightful...it's Denmark!"). Motson is Lineker's man though - the bland leading the bland...

Class act Davies. I remember him doing 88 Olympic hockey final when GB beat West Germany and commentating on a replay of a GB goal he said "where was the German defence? But frankly, who cares?" Brilliant

If I remember rightly after " just look at his face " Barry Davis then said "The smile of an angel on the face of a tiger"

Best piece of commentary ever! Always makes me laugh

Thats............. A Goal!

[RobButler1984]

I expect someone said it already but wasn't that commentary used on Fantasy football rather than they think its all over.

We love bazza Davies, he'd be at home now on test match special.

Barry Davies > John Motson.

[Applemask]

John Motson is great, as long as you're able to comprehend why "It's dramatic, it's delightful, it's Denmark!" is terrific.

Absolute classic and sadly missed these days!
