Jonny O - disgrace in yellow 0 Posted August 11, 2009 I would imagine commenting for 90 minutes on a football match is not the easiest thing to do. You might think he is ''rubbish'' and that perhaps you can do better. Perhaps you also think you know how to pronounce our keepers name as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
