Popular commentators ~ The minute's silence before the France vs. England game on Wednesday night was, apparently, for a French TV commentator who was very popular in his homeland.
(I say 'apparently' because Sky Sports weren't considerate enough to give subtitles to explain what was going on for what I suspect was the majority of their audience watching in pubs, who thus couldn't hear their commentators explaining it. I only finished work about half an hour before the game started, went straight to the pub, and thought some newsworthy tragedy must have occurred for a while, until I realised the England players weren't wearing black armbands.)
So, although I suspect it's probably a slightly morbid question – are there ANY British commentators who will be that sorely missed? I'm trying, but I can't think of one....
