Frankly, I’m surprised nobody has cunted this fucker before.
For those of you not in the know, Butler is the voice of BBC rugby and in the usual BBC mould of impartiality, is a Welsh Cunt (yes, I realise that is a tautology) who continually bangs on about how great the sheep shaggers are. He has a really irritating way of over pronouncing players names and is constantly used as a voice over to describe previous games, as though some kind of cosmic shift has occurred on the scale of WW1.
What has happened to the likes of Harry Commentator in the carpentry box, Murrayyyyyyyy Walker, Dan “oh, I say” Maskell, et al, that we have to tolerate second rate tossers like Butler and Linecunt?
Mark my words, it’s only a matter of time before we‘ll have a Lezza presenting “Sportsnight” with Coleman. Oh, wait a minute…

I always Harry short=arse Commentator was a bit of a cunt.Dog Racing one minute, tennis the next, and in his own mind an expert on boxing. When I first stated work my ‘mentor’ was a boxing referee’s best mate, said bloke was a former docker, PoW and leather worker called Harry Gibbs who refereed a number of fights including Henry Copper’s retirement fight against Joe Bugner. After 14 rounds the fight was level and Bugner one the last round easily. Fight to Bugner , who was not well liked and Henry has his British Crown taken away. Carpenter called the fight wrong and Gibbo was vilified. He didn’t mind too much as for years some newspaper would print ‘the worst decision since the Cooper-Bugner fight’ , Gibbo would send a solicitor’s letter and he would get the equivalent of a free holiday.

That Bugner v Cooper fight has always divided opinion. I was probably too young to fully appreciate the point-scoring boxing nuances but I felt Bugner edged it and the great Harry Gibbs called it correctly.
As to the wider question those old school commentators were unparalleled. Cricket : Benaud & Laker; Racing : O’Sullevan; Football: David 1-0 Coleperson; Rugby : McClaren (and Waring) ;Golf : Alliss ; Tennis : Maskell.
Eddie Butler isn’t the worst on our screens these days but then again none of today’s gabbling cunts hold a candle to any of the above. I’ll watch some 6N this weekend and I know now that all those fucking jabbering idiots will boil my piss (Main commentator; Co-Commentator No 1; then No 2 ; Referee mike; plus a couple on the touch lines sticking their oar in; then Invercunt and 4 more in the studio afterwards….). STFU !!!!
Who’s gonna win in Vegas tonight? I have a fiver on Wilder by KO in the 6th. 14-1. Would like Fury to win but I think he knows it doesn’t actually really matter as, win or lose, there will be a third “decider” $150m payday anyway.

And the token wimmin on the 6-Nations. Just fuck off.
4
Bang on!! ITV has some black wimmin on their coverage. They must have been grinning like wanking Japs when they discovered her. Fuck off.

Rugby? Pfft.

That won’t endear you to your prospective brother-in-law. Am assuming you and Fanny are still an item?
6
Fanny and I broke up a while ago as she realised I was only interested in the Reichsbank gold ‘liberated’ by Great Uncle Kiddie at the end of the war.
3
My deepest condolences… about the Reichsbank gold, that is.
2
Some science professors should make a cyborg Dan Maskell and have it do the commentary for all BBCistan sports.
Problem solved.
The cunts.

A white straight bloke on the BBC?0

“Nnneehh, I’ll get you Butler!”
Im going back to bed.

You’re not between the sheets knocking one out over Claire Balding are you?

Ecstasy!!

Brian Moore football.
Ron Pickering athletics
Richie Benau cricket
Peter Allis golf
Barry Davis football
Bill McLaren rugby
Harry Carpenter boxing
David Coleman athletics
Happy days.
13
add to that Peter O’Sullivan for the racing
Brian Johnston for the cricket on TMS R4
Eddie Waring for Rugby League
plus
Dickie Davis – presenter of World of Sport
Jimmy Hill – Match of the Day
Harry Carpenter – Sportsnight
Frank Bough – Grandstand
David Vine – showjumping and skiing
All of them knew their stuff, were easy on the eye and focused just on the sport in question.
Of course there is a great and obvious common denominator running through this list; and will never be allowed to happen today, and we’re much poorer for it.
13
Talking of Dickie Davis, remember that bit of grey hair he had at the front? My memory’s a bit vague but I think he had Mick Channon in the studio with him when Mick said something like ‘I see you’ve been painting the ceiling again’. Well, it was funny at the time. Fuck off.

Much much poorer.

Seconded sir.
Now we’ve got bints waffling about football and rugby and they know fuck all. You can see they’ve been trying to gen up on it before bthe game.
Just get the tea and Jaffa cakes hen.
They’ll have some mincing strictly come dancing cuppy like Bruno doing the rugby next year in the BBC.
Cunts.
6
BT Sport had some broad talking shite on the rugby last night. I switched off. When you’ve played top level, love, and I don’t mean wimmins top level, the equivilent to mens extra fourths level, then I’ll listen. Until then, fuck off.
6
Yes, these stupid bints probably do a Google search every 20 seconds while “commentating” just so they can quote facts and pass it off as their own knowledge.
“Errrr, what’s a Long Off? Ummm what’s a Googly? What the fuck is a carried-his-bat???”
Do me a favour, love, and fuck off back to the kitchen!
7
That bird who does commentary on the test cricket is another useless twat. Nothing remotely analytical to offer, just meaningless observations such as ‘oh, it looks like that might go for four…’.
Waste of fucking space.
5
Couldn’t agree more Ron.
I actually want to give these women a chance despite the fact that they have only been parachuted in on the basis of gender.
I listen to, watch and read a lot of cricket and with the sole exception of Elizabeth Ammond (The Times) they are a complete and utter waste of space.

Happy days indeed. Jumpers for goalposts,

Excellent cunting and long overdue. I loathe this biased cunt as much as I loathe NHS 111. Him and his dolphin-voiced Welsh sidekick, Jonathon Davis. When the game goes past 80 minutes and he says ‘We’re into overtime’, I must lose an hour of my life due to hypertension. Are they on time-and-a-half, you cunt? It’s ‘Extra Time’.
Bill McLaren, knowledgable and unbiased. The epitome of commentary.
Butler, you are indeed an utter, utter cunt and I commend this cunting to The House.
5
Bill sadly missed. Knew his stuff, didn’t waffle and was modest and low key.
Half these cunts think they’re more important than the game.
Mutts.
5
Never heard of Eddie butler before , but saying that i don’t watch rugby so ill have to give him a miss today , besides iv’e a busy day today so i’ll just say Eddie Butler your a cunt .
7
First class cunting for this biased twat.He’s always banged on about the sheep shaggers and how good they are and never gives England another thought.Would love Brian (Pitbull) Moore to lean over to him and lay him out cold.
11
Now THAT I would pay to see.

Butler is a Welsh cunt as am I. Therefore he can do no wrong. Although a cunt.
Bill McClaren was a Scotch cunt. – ‘they’ll be dancing in the streets of Carnoustie tonight’ or similar if a Jock managed to hold a pass. Fucking drivel.
Jonathon Davies is a whining Welsh cunt. Was a great player, league and union but should not be heard. Ever.
Brian Moore is good. For an English cunt.
Women should never be anywhere near a game of rugby.
Alfie seems to get work because he is of the gay persuasion.
However, when you look at the cuntsfest that is football, they are all far less cuntish.
10
Have to disagree about the late, great Bill McLaren, Cunstable. Unbiased, knew his stuff – always researched beforehand – and a great turn of phrase to boot.
‘He’s away like a runaway sideboard’!!
https://youtu.be/rqIaXLBk5tQ
Well worth five minutes to see how it’s done. RIP, Sir.

Quite right he was the best rugby commentator
’18 stone on the hoof ‘ bloody brilliant.

Indeed, CC. Have you also noticed how the woke BBC (Buggering British Children) have started using the term “Player” Of The Match, instead of “Man” Of The Match ?

“Mark my words, it’s only a matter of time before we‘ll have a Lezza presenting “Sportsnight” with Coleman. Oh, wait a minute…”
Q: Is this “box ticking” or “box llicking” advocacy by the AL-BEEB?
A: Both!

The late great Richie Benaud offered some great quotes when discussing the art of good commentating:-
“Put your brain into gear and if you can add to what’s on the screen then do it, otherwise shut up”
“The key thing was to learn the value of economy with words and to never insult the viewer by telling them what they can already see”
“What I want most from being a television commentator is to be able to feel that, when I say something, I am talking to friends”
He was also know for his great humour while commentating:-
“And Glenn McGrath dismissed for two, just 98 runs short of his century”
and then of course there was the marvellous Brian Johnston on Test Match Special:-
“Welcome to Worcester where you’ve just missed seeing Barry
Richards hitting one of Basil D’Oliveira’s balls clean out of the
ground.”
and his immortal ….
“The bowler’s Holding, the batsman’s Willey”
Compare and contrast the warmth of those two guys, to the bland, humourless stone-cold cuntishness we witness today
11
Hahaha Techno. Great reminders there of my favourite commentator from my favourite sport. Thank you.
3
I used to love Jim Laker’s test match commentary for his ‘Colemanballs’ contributions, such as ‘oh and Allan Lamb’s out in the middle of a great innings’.
5
Richie Benaud came across as a very likeable fella and was the one person in the world who could make cricket interesting. Ok half interesting.
5
He was indeed a Colemanballs regular wasn’t he.
I’d wager good money Jim wasn’t exactly the most popular bloke in the pavilion or commentary box and his dour Lancy tones probably didn’t help. I liked him anyway.
He’d be a valued member of ISAC had the Internet been invented then.
Time to draft a Nom for that idiotic cunt Graeme Swann…..
4
I am very happy to accept that this man is a cunt, I despise rugby and assume commentaries go something like this –
“Oooohhh, look at him, mmmmm, nice bum, mmmm, oooohhhhh, room for one more in the bath after the match boys, ooohhhh, you’re all so hetero, mmmmmm” for ninety minutes (or however long the fucking gay-fests last for).
3
He pronounces the French players names correctly. It’s all a bit quarrelsome with Brian Moore and the other commentators.

This cunt lives near me, true story. He is an abject talent vacuum. Don’t know which braindead program makers keep giving him work.
I would put him onto a Fierce Double Cunting, together with ” Jason Mohammed ” who is bizarrely a mainstay feature of BBC tv and BBC radio in Wales, covering sports and current affairs. He makes my skin crawl. He is thick as mince and lazy as a toad (thanks cummings). It’s only cos Jason Mohammed is 1/2 a Muslimist that BBC managers keep giving him work.
TV is best presented by women in silk blouses and mini skirts and stocking and suspenders with no knickers and bras, and by men that actually know what the fuck they are talking about and aren’t massively annoying ThunderCunts
