The Cockney Don Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Definitely a minute applause in England. A few clubs may do a collage beforehand on the big screens of Motty commentary on their goals. Link to comment

I think he did a few, but in those days, BBC Scotland and STV always had their own commentary teams doing it alongside so we never heard him. Link to comment

JumboJET Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Motson was an absolute cringe merchant, especially towards the end of his career. No big loss. 1 Link to comment
Matt Armstrong's Dog Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 5 hours ago, The Gee Man said: He nicked that one from Ted Lowe min.😉 Ach, Motson was alright. His "impartial" commentary in the England v. Croatia game back in 2007 when the Croats came back to beat them 3-2 at Wembley, therefore eliminating them from qualifying for Euro 2008, was the most memorable for me. "This is not supposed to happen. Say something, Mark (Lawrenson), say something." "I can't. I'm speechless. " 😄 Link to comment
Jigsaw666 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Motson deserves his minute tribute down south but hasn't done enough up here to merit it. Personally I thought he was good at his job but became a bit of a caricature in his last few years. Link to comment
ericblack4boss Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I always preferred Barry Davies as a commentator, he will have a couple of plantings and fly's soon. His brother died last week , now his former colleague, Link to comment
