Tino 0 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Garth Crooks is off his face, his tits and his tree. He seems to watch a totally different match to the rest of humanity, even a blind women in Thailand who has never seen a football match in her life could have picked a better team of the week...

Guest alex Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I think after a shaky start he just 'cheated' and kept out the way, if you know what I mean. Sums Crooks up tbh. Clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 GOALKEEPER - JOE HART (Manchester City) Joe Hart's save from Newcastle's Loic Remy that took City back to the top of the table was one that might, in the final analysis, win them the title. As for the first-half controversy over Newcastle's disallowed goal, Hart clearly felt that his sight of the ball had been impeded by Newcastle's Yoan Gouffran. Referee Mike Jones agreed with him, but on these matters I tend to share the view of Liverpool's most charismatic manager, the late Bill Shankly, who famously said that "if a player is not interfering with play then he shouldn't be on the pitch". DEFENDER - ASHLEY COLE (Chelsea) He has been my favourite full-back for a generation. His performance against Hull suggested the England international is back to his best, and he will need to be with Everton's Leighton Baines breathing down his neck for a first-team spot in the national side. The backheel by Cole for Eden Hazard to score Chelsea's first was wonderful. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/25704476 The google eyed freak is a joke. One save and Hart gets in his team of the week despite being a cheating prick that was rooted to the spot for a 30 yard shot from the worst striker of a ball in the league ..and I watched the Hull Chelsea game. Cole was tortured at left back. He was left for dead 4 times in the first 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWalrus 0 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Crooks is a moron, presumably kept on by the BBC for some special needs quota they are obliged to fill. His “team of the week” involves choosing some players (as many English as possible) from the teams that won games. Usually, this means all of the midfielders and strikers have scored whilst the keeper will have pulled off a “for the cameras” style save. He has no real objective or thought-provoking comments to made. My image of his desk at the BBC is very much like the desk of Milton in Office Space. One day someone is going to steal his stapler and there will be a fire at the BBC that nobody can explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13845 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 ''if a player is not interfering with play then he shouldn't be on the pitch'' Brian Clough said that - not Bill Shankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWalrus 0 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It’s a very old fashioned and simplistic view of football, akin to schoolboy football where all 11 players are continuously chasing the ball in a huddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12452 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 He's a complete joke man, always has been and will be. It's laughable when they put him on tv and he sits there looking confused. I like the Milton comparison . He clearly doesn't watch the games to select his team of the week. Just another shambolic employee of the BBC.

ADP 0 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Someone from here linked it into the Other Games thread a while ago, but this is indicative of his insanity: FORWARD - WAYNE ROONEY (Man Utd)I was speaking to my uncle Ben on Saturday and said that Aaron Ramsey was almost certain to be the unanimous choice for footballer of the year. He took the glass of champagne out of my hand and said: 'You mean Wayne Rooney, don't you?' I told him that he had made a very good point and promptly went home. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25179631 Edited January 13, 2014 by ADP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 8989 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It's his smugness that bothers me most. As if he's imparting some incredible insight and we're all so very lucky he's around to break it down into laymen terms. I know media outlets need controversy to encourage debate, but Hey Zeus Wept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADP 0 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 He does genuinely crack on sometimes like he is off his tits though. His behaviour is just a bit odd, and often not in keeping with the discussion at the time. For instance, he will just burst in every now and again as if someone has just offended his dead mother, while other presenters are discussing a very meek topic. I remember a few weeks ago they were all having a laugh on the bbc red button coverage and he just turned to the presenter dead pan as fuck: (Everyone laughs together in good humour) GC: You just called me the wrong name. Presenter: I did!? (continues to laugh) GC: Don't ever do that again... ever. (Silence) Presenter: There's been a debatable corner decision at Doncaster!
