From Despair To Where? Tyldesley is such a Man Utd fanboy, he can't stop talking about them.
He's also a prime example of the hyperbole over content style of commentary much loved by the modern crop of commentarybots.
I think it's an ITV thing. It's a light entertainment channel and I think they are directed to "entertain".
Much prefer the old school BBC commentators like Barry Davies, the type who were dropped into the Olympics to commentate on Synchronised Swimming at a minute's notice and had to sound knowledgable.
Used to like Jonathan Pearce in the early days on Channel 5 and the BBC but then France-Honduras in Brazil 14 happened and it was clear the nursing home was beckoning.

Tyldesley 100% goes in with a script of funny one liners for goals, hate him.

Sky used to offer this a while ago, but have since taken away the function.

Tyldesley used to go all orgasmic when a certain Man Utd striker had a shot and he could scream "Roooneeeey" even if the shot went wide.
Also Martin Tyler is very pro Man Utd and has been known to scream Man Utd's players' names in preparation for THAT "Aguerooooo" moment.
I think I prefer the old style "less is more" of Longhurst, Allis, Laker, Benaud, Carpenter, Wolstenhome etc and Coleman tended to get the atmosphere right between info and excitement.
Back to Tyldesley, I have a feeling that he has at some time been the victim of bullying.
During a game he often says about how strong or macho a player is and words like "you wouldn't want to upset him" or "you wouldn't take meet him down a dark alley" are said with much feeling.

Disagree with the Tyler/United bias. I think people just associate his voice with the time United won everything, they were on TV all the time and 9/10 Tyler was commentating. Tyler is the very best commentator there is for me, never thought he was overly biased towards anyone.

It may just be my own anti-Man Utd bias but when he commentates on their games it seems as though everything is from their perspective rather than providing a balance with the opposition.

Zammo Martin Tyler is a Gillingham fanatic, isn't he ? Also, currently a coach at non-league level. Tbf to Tyler, he was commentating at the golden age of the Fergie/Utd dominance. You gonna get carried away watching Beckham, Cantona et al. Funny that his most famous 'scream' was during a Man City game.
Yeah, last night's coverage was decent I thought. Up the Amazon !
