What an icon…

I remember him commentating on Liverpool with John Barnes on a rampage back in the day

RIP indeed. He was probably he finest I listened to doing football commentary. What a voice indeed.

They don't make them like hat anymore.

Yeah, an icon indeed. On John Barnes, his voice seemed to have this anticipation when Barnes was on the ball.
