He is articulate and very comfortable in front of the camera whenever I have seen him on sky. Might help to get Matty Holland to relax a bit as he seemed a bit wooden and nervous last year. I think giving the show such a late time slot is such a shame though. It could have a lot of potential as there are so many talking points around at the moment. Like the Stevenage/Newcastle cup tie, the Paul Lambert to Burnley saga and Roy Keane getting sacked as Ipswich manager to name but a few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted January 11, 2011 Dion''s a natural in front of the camera and, as previously said, may help Matt Holland being so wooden. MH was a bit more relaxed when I saw him on tv earlier on this season but he has a long way to go to become comfortable in front of the cameras. Once he gets that bit sorted, I think he may become a good presenter as he is knowledgable and, although biased in his support for Ipswich, can also offer fair-minded opinions for other teams, making pertinent observations.When does it begin? Not seen it scheduled yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted January 11, 2011 When i have seen Matt Holland (only once or twice) he looks really nervous, and doesn''t seem to want to be there, might be better on Radio. But Dion as already said is a natural. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted January 11, 2011 Wonder how many times Dion will be able to mention the Dube on the show...I saw BBC South are getting James Richardson as a presenter, good to see him back on the TV as he is clearly one of the best about.

a1canary 0 Posted January 11, 2011 I agree wits - i think Holland has the makings of a decent presenter despite his past! He needs time but i''ll never forget how truly awful Lineker was when he first appeared on our screens. Holland isn''t that bad even now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
