Here's a few from the legendary Murray Walker:

"Nigel Mansell has gone from seventh to sixth to fourth to fifth and now to third and this is lap twenty three"

Classic Murray

Greatest commentator on Earth!

Murray- what a legend.

Anyway here's one I remember from 'wrispering' Ted Lowe.

"...and he's playing for the brown, and for those of you with black and white TVs, the brown is just behind the blue!"

and..

"That's inches away from being milimetre perfect..!"

As the Grand Prix snooker is one at the moment, here's some of the most annoying, recurring quotes:

Clive Everton:
"He has reduced his arrears..."
"Barring snookers..."

John Virgo:
"WHERE'S THE CUE BALL GOIN'?"
"That's INCH PERFECT!"

Willie Thorne:
"He's only 6-1 to win the frame at this visit"
"He's just gone favourite!"

Dennis Taylor:
"How's your luck?"
"That's just sheer adrenalin!"

How many times have those above quotes been said already?!

" I never criticize referees and I'm not going to change a habit for that prat." (attributed to Ron Atkinson)

"If I'm very much mistaken, I am very much mistaken"

Murray = King of commentary


Maybe he should do a one off and do the Brit GP with Brundle, whilst he did the Aussie GP this year.

Brilliant! My favourite is probably from Ian Rush...

"It was like playing in a foreign country." - These were his comments on playing for Juventus, in Italy.
