Some Christmas cheer.
Phil Clarke to leave Sky Sports with immediate effect.
Let`s hope we get the likes of Stevie Ward to take his place.
And as long as it doesn`t mean Jamie Jones gets a bigger gig.
Hopefully Jonathan Davies leaves BBC and concentrates on RU in future.

I think Kyle Amor would be a better choice, comes across well in his commentary.

I'm in the "anybody but Wilkin" boat. I've almost got to the point where it's better to watch with the sound turned down. Enjoyed the Channel 4 stuff though.

Forgot about Amor and Kev Brown.
Even better if Emma James wants to take the slot

Re: Sky Sports : Wed Dec 20, 2023 5:00 pm  

Amor or Kev Brown for me.

I don’t mind this to be honest, I think Tomkins comes across well on the TV games.

Bring back Phil

Kyle Amor & Kevin Brown would be my choices to feature regularly on Sky games.
Sam Tomkins has now retired so he will clearly be a big catch,tbh he has come across very well when he has summarised on games.

I'd have no arguments if these 3 took the leading roles each week on Sky televised games

Kevin Brown would be a great choice, always comes across very well when he's been on Sky and in his role on Premier/Viaplay

What we are really missing is a top drawer lead commentator, Eddie Hemmings wasn't great in his last couple of years but in his prime he was one of the best Lead Commentators in sport, if you watch some older games it really does show how much he is missed.
