  • MCSMCS

  • nth_london_addicknth_london_addick
    brownie rocks when were shite he says we were shite when we play ok he doesnt oversell it and when we play well he i vocal about who and why they played well brownie is da man

    Browny.

    Always gives a very fair summary. His analysis earlier in the season of the strengths and weaknesses of Jon Fortune was spot on.
  • RedArmySE7RedArmySE7
    I think Browny has won this one hands down!
  • ImissthepeanutmanImissthepeanutman
    Lawrie Madden who I enjoy his work from a media perspective but hated him as a player

    Paul Walsh who was great as young player but I hate him for his media work
  • nth_london_addicknth_london_addick

  • BlackForestRedsBlackForestReds
    Paul Elliot.

    scotty minto is very impressive,love browny and Paul elliott is extremely knowledgeable.
  • Weegie AddickWeegie Addick
    Browny is the most 'Charlton' but Brighty's not too bad considering he's also ex Palarse.

    No-one putting in a good word for Crooksy then? ;-)
  • Off_itOff_it
    Shaun Bartlett was pretty shocking on the Beebs African Nations Cup coverage a year or two back.

    John Barnes is even worse as a pundit/link man.

    Mullery is a complete tosspot.

    Gavin Peacock does ok, as does Scotty Minto. Bobby Stuart is a top man - albeit on the speedway!
  • Chirpy RedChirpy Red
    Peacock is too slick for me. Mark Bright is an excellent pundit I reckon.
  • TT
    We clearly have the most ex players working in the media than any other club

    Minto looks like he's already on Sky's fast track, has that suit and hair that doesn't move look that all the SS anchors have...

    Brighty, Crooks and Peacock are all pretty good and know their stuff.
  • leftbehindleftbehind
    Minto for me

    Dont listen to much Radio or im sure Brown would be up there
  • F-BlockerF-Blocker
    Browny - definitely!

    I'd say Liverpool. They are everywhere.

    Hansen
    Lawrenson
    Walsh
    Thompson
    Etc

    Crooks has to be the worst - I don't count Barnsey since he was a bit fly by night otherwise he would be considered as making Crooks look good. I like Minto and Brownie does a good job. BTW Where is brownie now, is he still at West Ham or did he come back to us?
  • Red_Pete_in_DubaiRed_Pete_in_Dubai
    Remember meeting Brownie at a City Addicks do a few years ago. One of the nicest guys ever & he told some absolutely brilliant stories. My favourite was concerning a young Spotty Parker being absolutely terrorised by Sweaty Balmer on a pre-season tour in the West Country. Good luck to him. He speaks so much sense on the radio that surely he could cut it as a coach or a manager somewhere.
  • Czech_AddickCzech_Addick
    Definitely Browny.

    John Salako's ok.

    Dunno Henry, there is a few of that Liverpool of the 80's but off the top of my head we have the following Ex players/Managers doing National TV & Radio

    Minto
    Bright
    Salako
    Crooks
    Peacock
    Walsh
    Mullery
    Barnes
    Elliot
    Dowie
    Powell

    Then i guess there is Jimmy Hill connection also

    Wasn't Holland a co-commentator on a game recently.

    Plus Bartlett and Fish have covered the African Nations for the Beeb, and Bradley Allen has done the Radio a few times as well.
  • Czech_AddickCzech_Addick
    Hasn't Kiely done some radio stuff in recent years?

    Yeah saw Sir Chris as a pundit on the WBA at home game - seemed a bit more timid than usual.

    Like Elliott - Paul Walsh is a terrible commentator
