Stick a fiver on Huddersfield or Draw, instead of buying a half time pie, the end result will be the same.
Disappointment.

Your evidence is a column written 'after' he put in a transfer request?
Nice one Perry Mason!

Sorry just one more quick thing on Martin Tyler
I came across this just now by chance. This was a truly phenomenal goal scored by Berbatov, starting with a Bergkamp-esque flick (like he did against Newcastle, which was one of the goals of the century apparently). Listen to Tyler's commentary. Hardly raises his voice.
I can't help but think if that had been Rashford, Ibra, Aguerooooooo etc then it would've sounded different.
The Stalteri commentary was truly awful but wasn't a one off. I don't think he dislikes us in any way, but it's pretty obvious he has his favourite teams and he can't help keep his emotions in when they score.

To be fair, in that game if Charlton didn't win they were relegated, so I think he was just trying to be sympathetic to that situation by not overly celebrating

Yea but look, the original commentary was from Rob Hawthorne not Martin Tyler...skip to 1:40 in the below vid, I remember it as well as it was for MNF. Tyler might have been doing a re-cap on the match when they add their commentary over a highlights package which has been done many times before and the commentators do it for MOTD so they genuinely wouldn't be as excited as they were if they saw it live.
There's been plenty example of when commentators get excited for our goals including Martin Tyler, have we suddenly forgotten about this:

All fair points. Only thing I'd say is that Lamela goal was our 3rd in 5 minutes against Manchester Utd. If he hadn't got excitable at that, he'd have been sacked!
I don't get the highlights package thing. Had Tyler seen the match already then? Is it live or did he already know what happened? I get the MOTD thing but this was already on Sky and was covered by someone else, why would they get Tyler to do a highlights package instead of using the original footage/commentary?

Actually I just read up on wiki that Tyler is employed by the Premier League Productions:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Tyler
Premier League Productions
When he is not working for Sky, Tyler can be heard commentating for Premier League Productions, the Premier League's production arm which is responsible for producing, packaging and broadcasting the matches for the Premier League's international broadcast partners. Generally Tyler covers the Monday night matches for the international audience.
Not that that alters the point either way although it does explain his that he may have been commentating for a neutral audience.
I always find these arguments about commentator bias especially Martin Tyler hilarious by the way - I've heard other fans say the same thing:
Liverpool:
Man City
It's just ridiculous paranoia

That last one just makes me really miss the atmosphere we used to have even ten years ago
Imagine how silent our fans would be these days if we were two goals down at home to the scum... back then the drum was banning and the chants were in full force.

Just found this on Redcafe re Kane:
So when would you guess this comment is from? Maybe in 2011 when he made some appearances in the Europa League, or perhaps it's a misguided comment from his breakthrough season.
No.
It's from today

Tyler to me always just seems totally bi-polar, one game he's screaming for your team for no good reason, the next he couldn't care less that your goalkeeper scored a hat-trick.
I swear it's down to how many of his special tablets he's remembered to take that day.
He does seem to have a trend of favouring the underdog in any particular match, though.

To be fair, they're only all season ticket holders because since they moved a ST only costs 100 quid or something stupid. I live in the US at the moment and know a West Ham fan who has 4 STs. Clearly he doesn't go over much for games, but because it was so stupidly cheap, it was worth it even for the 2-3 games a season he makes it to and to know he's got a guaranteed seat for any big games.
Dixon is obviously associated most with Arsenal but he grew up supporting City, so I suppose they can count him.

No they've been season ticket holders for years. One is 28 and has been an STH since he was 18, which is commitment as I couldn't afford food when I was 18! Another for 20 years - Altho the change in stadium means he can now take both kids

A poster on Redcafe:
This kid, he has so much potential. He has been scoring at least 30 goals per season since 2014-15. His prime years will likely come between 2019 and 2021. I don't understand why some people say he is overrated. At the end of the day, the main objective in football is to score goals to win a match and a tournament, if this kid can score on a consistent basis, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have the skills of Neymar or the pace of Bale. The question for me is: Can he score 50 goals this season ? He is the only striker in the world other than Rashford which I think will reach these figures in the next two seasons at most.
He thinks Rashford will hit 50 goals in a season in the next couple of year?
