bs3 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Surely a must-see for anyone who enjoyed/suffered his idiosyncratic commentary style in the 80s & 90s I think Im right in saying that good old Roger first appeared on our screens back in the 1960s.

ciderup Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I reckon his best quote was when he hosted a midweek sports round up on HTV. Just as the commercial break ended we heard the immortal words ' that's bollocks Gareth (Chillcott), hello and welcome back to sportsweek'! Classic Roger Malone. I played golf up at Bristol and Clifton a couple of summers ago and we happened to be following Roger and Alan Dicks around the course. Both RM and AD were brilliant company in the club house afterwards, real gentlemen and very entertaining. Bring old Rog back, his gaffes were pure comedy!!

pongo88 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 He's much more versatile than I thought. I did a quick Google to find his age and found this; "Roger Malone was a student who began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1991.[3] He was sorted into Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw" http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Roger_Malone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric04 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 The trouble with Tottle was he commentated like he was on TV. Great passion but you had no idea what was going on most of the time unless a goal was scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDziek Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I always thought it was. 'Pick that out of the net you boys from crewe' It was exactly that after, I believe, Bob Taylor thundered a 35 yard half volley past Dean Greygoose (great surname). If only Taylor hadn't done his hammy later in that game, surely we'd never have surrendered the league to the Gash. He did wear lovely V necks, did our Rog though!

That was after the last game of the 89/90 season against Walsall. I think he tried to come down the ladder from the gantry about five times before eventually securing a police/steward escort at the bottom so he could get down after about an hour!

Port Said Red Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 We always used to joke that the HTV stuff was so badly edited that one day they would cut a goal out. I am sure it did happen once, it was a game where Tainton scored in the 1st half, notable for the fact it went in rather than sailing about a foot over the bar which was TT's default position. We got to half time in the highlights with me saying to my dad, "I am sure we were 1 up at half time". My dad said I must be wrong, but sure enough the whistle blew and Roger says "there we are half time and Bristol City will be happy to have their one goal lead"....... I never did see a replay of that goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
