A different kind of pasty

Another one here who hasn't minded Savage on telly at all. He's Welsh. They haven't been in a tournament since 1958, they won their first game and went a goal up against England. Surely we can forgive him for being a bit bias and passionate in the circumstances?
It's not the bias that gets me (to be fair to him I was in the pub so couldn't even hear what he was saying on yesterday's build up) - it's that he has nothing insightful to add about the football itself.
But that goes for 75% of pundits in my view. Rio Ferdinand is refreshing in that regard. Alan Shearer and Lawro have historically given the impression they are there on a jolly in between these tiresome football matches between foreign teams.
"We don't know much about Albania"
Well why not Alan? It's your f**king job to find out, not to go playing golf in between matches.

I doubt even you have any idea what you meandoesn't take himself too seriously, but does, if you see what I mean...
RS's comments prior to the game yesterday were so one-eyed they were almost surreal. Would the BBC show such indulgence to a similarly manic England fan-analyst? I got the impression his fellow pros in the Radio 5 commentary box were getting a bit pi**ed-off with him in the build-up.

I'll see your David Pleat, and raise you Kevin Keegan.
It could be worse. We could have had Garth Crooks imparting his infinite wisdom.
