Half empty

I enjoy watching golf on telly far more than I ever did playing the silly game. But that enjoyment dims when Mark Roe is in the box. The man is a critic, not a commentator, expecting players to reach a standard that he never did himself, and slating them when they do not. He needs to listen and learn from the likes of Ewan Murray, Dougie Donnelly and Andrew Cotter.

    A lot people including me still enjoy trying to play the ‘silly’ game.

    And yet you wrote such an exciting golf game. Best since “Goldfinger”.

    The best and most polite sports commentators of all time were Mr Richie Benaud and Mr Bill McLaren. The later coined that famous phrase “a substantial citizen”, which he would surely have applied to Mr Skinner. What do you think ?
