Things they say on telly...

In the spirit of Simon Groom on Blue Peter talking about \"A lovely pair of knockers\" after his co-presenter had done a bit about door brasses, and Brian Johnson saying, \"The batsman's Holding, the bowler's Willey\" on TMS.

Andy Townsend, step forward with your comment on the England match tonight that \"It's always sweeter when you come from behind.\"

Here's to the lads giving Gary Johnson one in the eye on Saturday.

I once heard Frank Bough, commenting on a John Player Sunday League match years ago, say that the rain was shitting down. Actually, I think he said 'sheeting down' but it didn't half make everyone look up at the time.

Cheers

And then there was the classic Dickie Davies moment, when introducing the FA Cup action on World of Sport: \"And now to the Cop Sucker.\"

Ron Pickering commentating on the finishing straight of the Olympics 800m \"And Juantorena opens his legs and shows his class.\"

Or the Daddy. David Coleman on Linford Christie: \"He has a habit of pulling it out when it matters most.\"

Is that the same Clive Tyldesley who upon Crouch scoring his first tonight said \"That's 19 goals in 37 caps for Crouch, but goals as a sub are few and far between.\" then following his second goa said \"Well that now makes it 20 goals in 37 caps, and a fair few from the bench, you know.\"?!

I'm glad i'm not the only one who heard that. I turned to the missus and said I bet thats what John Terry said!!

Or take your pick from the maestro that is Sid Waddell. Literally hundreds to choose from, including:

“Bristow reasons . . . Bristow quickens ... Aaah, Bristow.”
“Jockey Wilson . . . What an athlete.”
“That was like throwing three pickled onions into a thimble!”

Not sure about the truth behind this classic though:

“Darts players are probably a lot fitter than most footballers in overall body strength.”

Talking about Frank Bough's cock ups, I am sure I once heard him say on Grandstand 'I like sado-masochistic sex with prostitutes.'

I nearly choked on a roasty when Clive Tyldesley came out with this one during the Reading v Aston Villa game this afternoon.
