It seems he bases his Teams of the Week/Day on who scores/who's a "name". I remember last season Lucas had a cracking game (can't remember which one), Torres scored (did little else) yet he was the one in the team, not Lucas. Crazy.

Yeah, Legend of the Mole-Faced Man.

I've just nearly choked on the coke I was drinking reading that. My missus come running in asking what was wrong as I was spluttering everywhere and trying to stop laughing. Needless to say she doesnt think its funny.

Brilliant. Still giggling now

Can someone please explain to me how this guy still has a job as a tv 'expert?'

Simple, he ticks boxes. The homosexual box & the Moleman box.

I like Crooks.
Bit tedious and hard to listen too but he is miles ahead of most in terms of punditry.

Mon dieu!

The man is a tool, a proper shite hawk if I ever saw one. Obvious how much he hates Liverpool.

Zizou · « **Reply #91 on:** June 26, 2010, 10:57:34 am »

It's the way he looks so serious, like he's about to say something profound and deep, then he'll come out with

"The reason they didn't win, is because they scored less goals than the opposition"

Then give a knowing nod.

skidz73 · « **Reply #92 on:** June 26, 2010, 11:31:59 am »

Funny, if I take what he says in isolation he's no more, no less enlightening than any other pundit on the telly.
Granted, he's got an odd look and manner about him, but hardly worthy of his own thread of derision, does it?
Where's the Andy Townsend thread then? The bent nosed cock.

Red Squiggle · « **Reply #93 on:** June 26, 2010, 12:05:57 pm »

I thought that one about the "west coast niggas and the east coast niggas" when he's threatening Richard Littlejohn was fake until I saw what it was on. Hilarious if he wasn't such a gobshite!

take the piss out as much as you like, but Garth Crooks is the Brother Mouzone of football punditry. You don't wanna mess with him when he puts a bow tie on

redoneusa · « **Reply #95 on:** June 26, 2010, 01:26:55 pm »

All the "pundits" talk shit for the most part. I like the way ol big head dealt with pundits.

Too much shit is talked these days, people trying to just make a name for themselves.

Garth Crooks has watched too many Harold Pinter plays.

The guys an utter bell end. Can't stand the way he nods his head and blinks in slow motion before finishing his sentence with a pout and a glare in a 'What choo talking 'bout Willis?' kind of way.

Great goal for Chelsea there. Good finish from Marlon Harewood.

That is exactly it!!!

He drives me fucking insane. Canceled sky sports, so going to have to put up with the c*nt, Soccer Saturday was the only thing I watched on SSN and can't get it now they are moving off freeview. We ain't got many Saturday games, so going to have to listen to the prick wittering on without saying anything. Don't know how he's still in that job? Is it the beeb filling their quota? Cause he ain't no pundit.

I really hope he's on tv for another 5-10 years. I've had so much fun just laughing at his mole like head movements. On top of that he talks a load of crap.

rather him than Trvor Francis

I hate his nasal bollox

today he said no one tracked the runner for Villas second

there was a defender right on shoulder

when the replay showed, he started to repeat no one followed the runner, then stopped himself

wardides · « **Reply #110 on:** August 15, 2010, 06:53:55 am »

One of the Francis that i cant stand but im not sure if its Trever or Gerry.Its the one that does the odd south american game and la liga.His voice.Dear god it would make you just drift off to sleep its so bloody annoying.

wardides · « **Reply #111 on:** August 15, 2010, 06:54:28 am »

Yup after a quick google its trevor.Numpty.

KERRYKOP · « **Reply #115 on:** October 8, 2012, 11:18:19 am »

Has said in his team of the week column on the BBC website about James Morrisson

"This is a player Roy Hodgson should now be taking a keen interest in."

Surprised he also didnt add that he was a fan of his early stuff mostly. This follows just a few weeks ago when he put five strikers and one midfielder in his team of the week. Crooks is stealing a living.

Nope, but every time I see him or Merson on TV I think that Charles Darwin got it wrong.

Zizou · « **Reply #117 on:** October 8, 2012, 12:32:54 pm »

I bet he's being paid a fortune as well. Sickening.

It's actually quite insulting, as the newspapers and TV stations obviously think this is the sort of "analysis" that football fans really want, or can deal with.
