I have had the dubious pleasure to watch Derby, Forest, Boro, Hull plus several more clubs. I find the 'home' commentators for Ifollow broadcasts when measured against Nick & Andy fall a very long way short by way of technique, voice sound, totally a biased fans eye based commentary.
Even many of Sky's professional commentators are not as good as our 2.
I'm amazed Nick London hasnt been snapped up by the big boys. He has a great radio voice. Yes he gets some names mixed up now and again but not much else I can find I dont like about him.

Nothing beats being at a match, but if that’s not an option a live stream with a London/Sinton commentary is the best alternative.
Listening to some of Nick’s comments sometimes makes me think that he views this website, as he mentions issues and in-jokes discussed on here. Does anyone know if he is a reader and/or contributor?
I am Nick London, Noel.
I'm also Andy Sinton.

He does read it I understand, or has in the past any rate.

Listened to the 90' and I only winced once or twice at Nick.
There was one foul by Ball that the ref gave and Nick was pretty adamant that it wasn't - it was and Andy said so!
The reaction to the Dickie penalty claim WAS a bit OTT for what it was, but again, Andy pointed out that Rob didn't exactly go mad about it.
The references to PNE were all good for me and of course if Maguire hadn't been such a ****, then Nick couldn't have said anything.,
My only beef is that EVERY time PNE delayed play by kicking the ball away or standing in front of a free kick he mentioned it and blamed the ref, but when we did it, he was/is silent.
TBF he and Andy DID say that its a balancing act - much the same as Clive said in his match report - we/they want us to be more 'streetwise' but do we want to watch PNE levels of 'game management' every week?

Half suspect reading the preview might be what got him so hyped up...
As some of you may know, (if you don't have me on ignore for my dreadful digital persona) my dad isn't very well. After making a couple of games at the start of the season, he's had to go back to chemo and can't go to games again.
I wrote to the club's R U OK line to ask if there was something the club could do to perk him up. I thought they'd send him a card or a stream voucher or something.
What I did not expect was dad to message me yesterday saying that he'd just got off the phone from an extensive phone call with Andy Sinton, ringing up to check on him and then ended up just chewing the cud about football.
Dad is still absolutely gassed, and I'm properly overwhelmed that he would take the time to make a gesture like that. Thank you Andy, it meant the absolute world

Top work. There are a lot of good people in the game. I hope your Dad’s treatment goes well and he’s doing okay.

What a wonderful thing Andy Sinton did there. He's a great ambassador for the club. Hope your dad is OK and gets well. Tough times for you guy's. Your online persona is no better or worse than anyone else on here mate. All the best to you.

Mate, that is excellent and pure class from the club.
Hope your Dad is relatively ok and glad that gesture did him the world of good. A League Cup Qtr final will also be a decent pick me up i'd imagine.

Hope the chemo works out and your Dad is back at the ground in time for the semi final...
