I think the problem with the commentary is that they're just seeing what we're seeing - i.e. the TV pictures! In the C4 days they were at the ground weren't they? I can forgive the not too hot commentary mind you there were a couple times you thought come on do your research - like the Mijahlovic point from John Barnes and they generally sounded a bit clueless about Calcio sometimes - a couple hours reading the FI site would give you some good background knowledge


Actually, while James used to be in the stadium with Paul Elliott or some other ex-Serie A player, Peter Brackley and whoever was co-commentating were actually back in London commentating on the TV pictures.


It's called Sex Panther, by Odeon. It's illegal in 9 other countries. It's made with pieces of real panther, so you know it's good. They've done studies you know - 60% of the time, it works every time!

The coverage is a joke already. Showing Cagliari vs Juventus over Milan vs Fiorentina. Guess I'll be going out sunday afternoon then.

Juve have more box office appeal, so it's quite understanding - suck people in so they get into Italian football. As a Juventino, of course, I am definitely not complaining at their selection this week.

Yes, the C4 commentators were in the studio. There was one wonderful occasion wher the game they were covering was suddenly cancelled for some reason (crowd violence, mass drug test failure or whatnot) and the pictures suddenly switched to another game. Having spent 5 minutes previewing the cancelled game, Brackley hilariously ad libed with something like "well that one isn't taking place, so we've quickly flown down to Naples to bring you coverage of..."

Bet365 and Betfair both stream live games - both will show Milan-Fiorentina this afternoon. Quality is okay and you need to have an account with either bookmaker but you don't need to have a bet.
