Garth Crooks( Football focus, etc)

[T Fearon]

Is he any more outrageous than Dunphy? The only difference is that he played for top clubs and won medals etc. He was integral part of the great Spurs team of the early 80s (saw him score against Dundalk in an ECEC tie a Oriel in 1981), and a proven goalscorer, in a truly gteat Spurs team that could and should have won more trophies.

He says it like it is.

I don't really do politically correct, so here it is in plain speaking. The BBC must be afraid to put him out to roost for fear of a racial backlash. He is, put simply, inept at his job.

[Minder]

Why was he an analyst at the African Cup of Nations? Because he is black?

[bingobus]

Tries to come across as all intelligent. Be better suited as a college lecturer than in a football studio. A pointless person.

Sometimes Tony, it's ok to admit that you're wrong.

[Doogie Browser]

Ok, first black player called Crooks who played for Spurs to score in a cup final is what he really meant.

Trebilcock is a great word to describe Tony's posts.
