When the game is on Sky, we get the Sky commentary. The game was on Sky yesterday so we got the Sky commentary.

Television commentary is not descriptive enough for an audio listener though. Was listening on Boxing Day and gave up.

Lots of very long silences broken by him just reading player’s Wikipedia stats.

Neil redfearn as co commentator yesterday and he didn't have a good thing to say about Donny, I don't think it was a neutral commentary if it was it was very biased towards Bolton.

There was no co-commentator? I wonder are overseas people getting different commentary?

To be fair he’s an ex Bolton player and if he’s on their commentary team he’s likely to show a bias to the audience

He made no reference if ever playing for us and for him to say Bolton had been the better side . I don't know which game he was watching!
