You wouldn't want to keep Wilkin who starts most sentences with 'Look' and uses 1,000 words when 10 would suffice or Terry O'Connor who has had a job for 10 years and failed to improve at all or Bill Arthur who gets mixed up whenever there are 2 players who aren't white on the field at the same time

Or Stuart Pyke, awful. I'd keep JJB too actually, very articulate

O'Connor must read the same script every game , plus he's got a voice like a lawnmower going over pebbles .

Hopefully if Sky are left out it will do away with Thursday games

Fingers crossed but that said , TNT show quiet a lot of Yawnion which their season will cross over with ours especially the beginning of ours . I assume TNT/BT still have 3 channels ?

Wilkin is the most verbose and self opiniated pundit we see on TV. His bias to HKR/Saints isn't even disguised; I couldn't believe he actually defended Lewis' slide tackle into Briscoe, during the Leigh game saying it was purely accidental, only to then call it cynical when discussing the reasons behind Rovers defeat.
