Interactive TV idea

annoyed by David Pleat. Find his bleating irritating, his voice irksome, his so called "observations" obvious at best, vacuuous normally, and just plain wrong the rest the time? If so then our new service is just for you. To shut up David Pleat just press the Red Button.

This leads me to a more serious question- just who is the most irritating commentator in the history of football?

I actually watched the second half of the match last night in silence.

It is a liberating experience - though I do feel that I'm turning into a miserable old git.

All commentators are as bad as each other, there are no good ones. And they're getting worse.

Terrible result and robbery with the penalty.

I had a similar idea for a 'Noel Edmonds Filter', but in the end I just left the country, it was easier than persuading Samsung, Sony, etc, that my plan was a world-beater.

Of course, I get the ESPN in Spanish and the commentary is based on the idea of two guys having a friendly chat. After all, when you have a World Cup winner, Mario Kempes, rather than a Milk Cup winner, Mr Pleat, there's no need to prove anything to the audience about your knowledge of football.

I find Jonathan Pearce and Clive Tyldesley disgusting, for the record. Oh, and who is that BBC guy who always moralises if a player does something, he's a prick, too.
