A Bit of Fun Paul Clark's Radio Skills

[Ayrshire Blue]

Probably dropped too many truth bombs

No, not the case. He has a very good reason.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Have just been given some information that he's stopped doing this for "personal reasons" at the moment. Hopefully he will be back in the future.

:unsure:
Hope all is well with him and his family.

The word legend is overused in football and should be reserved for figures like Clarky

Hope Paul is back soon and his personal issues get resolved.

Personally I thought Chris Phillips was great when he did it years ago, I'm guessing that he is too busy with all the echo stuff to do it anymore.

Cheers .I was a manager there for seven years and didn't know that. Surprising it never came up

And gotta keep Neil Kelly!
His interviews with Col Ewe managers after a run of defeats are classics, you can hear his voice breaking......
Samaritans put on extra staff.

The Kelly quote I recall was when commentating on Col Ewe ten years or so ago stated "Lomano Tresor Lua Lua, surely one of the greatest players in the world today"

Mark Pougatch did us a good few years ago when at BBC Essex.

I remember Chris Phillips on air too.He was just as feeble as he is with his Echo reporting.Eg:however badly the team has played,it seems the only way anyone gets less than 6 is when they are sent off,however unjustly.

You're a bundle of laughs, you, aren't you? :facepalm:

Totally disagree, thought he was articulate and unlike so many didn't just throw around football clichés

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

I like Chris and like his reports. He walks the fine line of a journalist who must have a positive relationship with the club whilst at the same time has to tell some home truths.

Not only Paul Clark, but also the Legend Steve Tilson :-)

He is more than happy to criticise the team and performances.

As to scores they are subjective nonsense anyway and I know he has had grief in the past from players and players wives when he has marked them too low so dont blame him.

Apparently Clarky is doing Tuesday night's game! :thumbsup:

 

[Colchester John]

Paul Clark co-commentating at Roots Hall next Tuesday against Peterborough. So do I stay at home and listen to Clarky or take my seat at Roots Hall?

 

[AndyT]

Get a seat in the Directors Box and you can do both! :thumbsup:

I'd rather he was managing Tuesday night's game!!!
