Grand Prix Rejects

Dont suppose many non UK forumites have the BBC channel "News 24", but recently spotted "His Crucialness" being the "Sportday" in-studio reporter.

And, yes...

...poor.

I thought the BBC actually got rid of him for good, until I heard his voice commentating on a League 2 game on the football league show.

He probably hates the BBC now

... From Monaco and Abu Dhabi one year, to Accrington Stanley and Morcombe the next.

Still, watching the BBC red button Classic F1 coverage is a good reminder of why he had to go ... Crucially!

He is a much better football commentator than he was in F1, and he's much, much better when he's left on his own. Interrupting King Martin Brundle I is a crime rightly punishable with death.

Have you noticed how much MB has been using the word 'crucial' this season though? (and DC for that matter) Unfortunately he seems to have picked it up from Legard.

Sadly my team is now in The Championship so if I can be bothered to stay up til nearly midnight to watch, I'll have Legard inflicted on me many times I suspect.

David is saying the word "Crooshle" which is a completely different word altogether.

I'm fairly sure I heard him on Test Match Special (English radio cricket commentary if you don't know) giving us the county scores during the lunch interval of one of the days in the England/Sri Lanka test series. From F1 to lower league football and a 10 minute stint on TMS. At least he's found his level now.

I know he commentates matches for the Football League show.

Relegation to the Championship has screwed us up enough as it is.

I hope you weren't assuming that I'm a Blues fan just because I live in Brum redbulljack? 'Cos I'm not.....

Oh no, I didn't read your earlier post, otherwise I would have definitely quoted it.

West Ham or Blackpool then?

The way we're going we may have to hire Jonathan Legard to play for us.

I'm a Hammer! Unfortunately I can't stand Allardyce so I won't be watching F1 or football at this rate!

Thats law.

And I have noticed DC does seem to say Crucial quite a bit too

Oh yes, when I saw Accrington Stanley were in League 2 I though they deserved a mention. Also, for those foreigners who don't know what we're on about, well, it's this :

With the number of kids going around quoting this advert, it became quite an epidemic ...

Oh, the irony. Who do I hear on 5 Live coming back from work?

Legard, talking to our fat overrated new manager and purveyor of poor quality football Sam Allardyce. About scouting new players, should anyone care. I didn't.

When Accrington Stanley made it back to the "League", Sky News (hmmm im sensing a theme of dire presentation here) were able to track down the "Boy" from that advert, who had NO clue about the history of Accrington Stanley before or indeed after he was in "that" advert, so the interview was kinda pointless, but to top it all off the reporter went "go on, say the line again!".......these are the people bringing your UK based F1 coverage next year...

Just stopped himself from saying it.

More knowledgardable (see what I did) than Jonathan
