oh man, that rose-c**ted glasses killed me!!
Oh!! Doh!!!
oh man, that rose-c**ted glasses killed me!!
They should let somebody like Tracy Austin pesent today at Wimbledon, fantastic to listen to, knows her tennis, not annoying in the slightest
I'd rather they whack the head groundskeeper who keeps lying that the grass plays just as fast as the old days.Can they sack Garry "Inane" Richardson too?
oh man, that rose-c**ted glasses killed me!!
Thank the lord
Remember what he said about Bartoli? Disgrace.
Yes, he's annoying too. Not in Inverdale's class certainly but he comes across as patronising and smarmy!
It was a mistake. He wasn't fired.Am I the only one who liked Inverdale? And i can swear I heard him commentating yesterday, so he's not completely fired.

Claire Balding replaced him on Today at Wimbledon, to glorious early reviews.
She knows **** all about tennis. Why is she presenting it?
BBC's new Wimbledon highlights show mauled by critics and viewers

From the article ".. marshalled by a panicky looking Clare Balding."

No, he's not. He's a complete tool.Yes, as I posted at the time it was sensational reporting-if anything he actually got promoted. He is a very good sports anchor & has been for 20 odd years.
Being black, I don't know whether to take offence or laugh.Clare Balding.
Female? Check. Lesbian? Check. She fills the BBCs diversity quota. If she was black and disabled she'd be on every BBC channel 24/7.
She's not a bad presenter, but she knows bugger all about tennis. She should stick to horse racing.

I'm all these things if you count asperger's as a disability who do I call?

He just stuck it to Austin.

Oh come on!!! Don't be such a liberal *****. Oh I'm sorry I meant "pc".So instead, you liked his post?
Yet Inverdale and Bartoli have worked together on ITV for 2 French Opens since, and they do it well.
What happened?
He was pushing her about equal pay for women & whether they should play 5 sets, she didn't really answer exactly what he had asked so he said she was copping out which ruffled her somewhat, she says she would like to see the men playing 3 sets at at least the quarters onwards & she finds 5 sets boring quite often.

Get rid of that twat Castle as well please.
I heard that too, Inverdale really is a dick at times. He couldn't make it any more obvious that he doesn't believe in equal prize money if he shouted it with a megaphone.He was pushing her about equal pay for women & whether they should play 5 sets, she didn't really answer exactly what he had asked so he said she was copping out which ruffled her somewhat, she says she would like to see the men playing 3 sets at at least the quarters onwards & she finds 5 sets boring quite often.

Well I just think as a commentator he shouldn't let his bias show so obviously. Just my opinion anyway.That's not being a dick. That's a valid opinion. Not everyone has to think the same like you.

You'd think watching the BBC coverage year in, year out I'd be used to it by now!Unbiased commentating is an utopy. I have yet to encounter it
Andrew Castle is acting like a MASSIVE tool in the invitational doubles.
What's he doing?
His Twitter behaviour is kinda weird, he calls out a fair few people who criticise his commentary. I think he must search his own name... Awful commentator.
