View Full Version : Most famous recurring Sports quotes
Guys / Girls
What the most annoying recurring sports quotes you know of ?
Here a couple of my faves -:
1. Monty to win the Open
2. Sir Les raring to go
3. Sir Les injured again
4. Liverpool short in the midfeld department (Last count 10 in the current squad)
Please add to the list,perhaps we can get a top 100 and get it in the daily tabloids, with a bit of RMC advertising ?
Only one for me Pasman?
"Some people are on the pitch. They think it's all over. It is Now?
And of course "A great ball to Heskey, Oh he's missed controlled that one"

The best one ever is the cricket quote:
The bowlers Holding, the batsmans Willy

For those of you watching in black and white the blue is behind the red ball.
There was one from the boat race a few years back, I think it was Harry Carpenter
'And there's the duchess of Kent kissing the cox of the Oxford Crew'.... or something along those lines.

There were some fantastic quotes from Jonathan Pearce (Capital Gold and channel 5) during the England v Germany 5:1 game....
'How hard ?, Gerrrrrrard'
was one of my favourites
Still - as for annoying there was certain FA cup semi , something like 'Giggs, still Giggs, Giggs could go all the way , GOAL.' that was painful

I remember when Chelsea were playing in Zagreb or somewhere in the snow... Zola picked the ball up and JP called him "the little snowmobile"... dunno why but it cracked me up, you wouldn't find Motson saying it...
This is good stuff, how about when Bruno fought Tyson and the No.1 Bruno fan was Harry Carpenter the commentator and his quote as Frank walked to the ring and said
"I'm ready, but is Frank ready !".
and then in round 3 when Frank threw that jab rocked Tyson.
Harry shouts
"Go Frank get in there!"
and the rest is history
Must agree the best ever.
its, its michael schumacher, aaargh.
wasn't it Brian Johnson on Test Match Special who innocently said this, then immediately lost all control when he realised what he'd just said - he was in hysterics live on the radio for about 10 minutes.
I was reminded of it only the other day watching the first test against India .... because .... the commentator's Holding, the third umpire's Willy -- ah, deja vu !
The Swedish goal against Taylors England
"Dahlin, Brolin, Dahlin, BROLIN!!!!"
Dolly Parton eat your heart out!!! /forum/images/icons/smile.gif
Or Keegans France 98 quote
"There's Only one team whos gonna win it now and thats England"

Most football commentators - he's only got one foot!
How about the cup semi between Spurs and [censored] when Gazza put thge ball down 35 yards out at the Wembley.
"And it's Gascoigne, the arsenal players are in the wall he's gonna shoot. he's gonna shoot"
(Who else would be in the wall - the queen mum !)
during which Gazza smack the ball into the roof of the net. Possibly one of the greatest goals scored at Wembley.

This boy swims like a greyhound
or
....can he do it...and the answer is...yes...possibly!
or
There's the unmistakable face of Pat Eddery, or is it Lester Piggot?
or
There's only one word for that...magic darts!
When England lose a game the manager be it, Taylor, Hoddle, Venables, Errikson always says "we can learn from that" pi***s me right off. Also can anyone remember who John Motson was talking about when he said "a quality goal from a quality player" I should know being a Blade.
Or the managers " if you offered me a point before the game I would have taken it" All managers say that.
or
"He needs to stick it in the back door!!!!"
Mr Keegan,
I WOULD LOVE IT, I WOULD LOVE IT, IF IF IF WE BEAT THEM TOMORROW. I WOULD LOVE IT
lololololololololololololol
Murray Walker
"Nothing can stop him now!" or similiar, immediately followed by the appropriate car bursting into flames and smashing into the barriers!

"It's an up and under" from dear old Eddie Warring (rugby 70's). Old me!
Darts commentator on Sky Sports when some geeza had just won his match, "...what a player, what an athlete"
Athlete??? How do you train for darts? Repeated pumping action of ones right hand?
