Collymore, Collymore, Collymore. Hate the bloke and his ever changing opinions, refusal to ever admit he's wrong, refusal to praise Rafa and insistance that Mourinho would be a better manager for us.

David Platt is absolutely crap.

I was wondering why he is so far up Utd's arse but a quick google shows he was on Utds books early in his career and was runner up in the league behind the mighty reds in 89 - 90. On the plus side he has turned into a right greasy fat tit.

Merson, though. Oh dear.

His show on Saturday was quality - all based around the fact that Berbatov was substituted after 1 minute of the 2nd half against Fulham. "Humiliating", "Lazy", "Should never play for Utd again" etc. etc. - until someone phoned in to say that he was atually substituted at half-time because he was injured and left the ground on crutches.........

He's a massive liverpool fan and only slags us of when we play shite which is fair enough.

He properly laid into us when we lost to Boro.

Havn't listened to him for a year or so to befair. But that's because of his commentary. I've hardly ever heard him praise us though but the main problem is his constant hyperbole. We're always shite or apparently (like that 'Are you watching Manchester' comment) brilliant. There's no middle ground when it comes to us or anyother team for that matter. I've listened to him commentating on our game against the Mancs and even then, it was with regards to certain players on both sides of the spectrum

He always seems to go overboard, whatever he's saying. As if there's never an average match, or an average player or an average goal.

True.

He is by nature very eccentric.

Surely Stan Collymore should be on that list!

Saw him last night on some Setanta rubbish and you can see that he just spouts whatever comes into his head on the spot. Poor bloke looks a bit lost. However I think he is better on the radio commentaries which is a bit more spur of the moment stuff. The articles/comment he comes out with are poor.

Merson's faults are mainly due to his lack of brain cells. However he isn't a bitter or hateful individual like Sherwood, Matt Le Tosser, Charlie Nicholas, Eamon Dunphy, Richard Keyes, Steve Claridge etc, who all carry a chip on their shoulders.

I listen to Dunphy a lot and I've never heard him say 'bitter' or 'hateful' comments towards the club. Whenever he covers one of our games, he is forever going on about how great the club is and how fantastic we were in our heyday.

Now if you deem giving an opinion on what our manager does as bitter and hateful, then living rooms and pubs across the city will be full of bitter and hateful fans.

And believe it or not Claridge is a huge Liverpool fan. He was at Rome in 84.

Heard Durham before going on about how Gerrard needs to move abroad to be considered a great player.  Ian Wright spoke some sense and shouted him down but I think half the time he tries to be deliberately controversial.
