Carney is being groomed to replace eddie hemmings.

I would like sky to maybe bring in someone completely new. Maybe Paul Sculthorpe

We need to get an Aussie as one of the two main commentators. No need for two broad northern accents like Tez and Baz on together either, it just drags the game back to the stereotype. Give them two their own little slot of interviewing players before the game or whatever but keep them away from the box.

Carney plus someone else new who is decent in the box, nobody else. There are two many voices spouting nonsense right now it makes your head hurt. Clarke and Wells doing the pre/post match analysis and Baz and Tez kept to larking about with the players in sketches and interviews.Cummins - get rid just no need. This is a real chance for SKY to sort out the staleness they have with their coverage so i hope they take it.

Equally, he suggested that a player would have been in touch if had bigger feet, then went on to describe him as Mr Stubby Toe Man; so it veers between minor amusement to major league cringe.

I shan't miss him - it's time for a change.

Alan Partridge.

''That was liquid football''.

As a one off, that would be superb; most RL commentaries are littered with Partridge moments anyway, so he'd slot right in.

"This is *great* banter, it really is..."

Ray French for me.

As a replacement for Eddie, definitely. Not sure he'd work as Stevo's replacement though.
They probably won't even bother replacing him tbh, the commentary box already seems a bit crowded to me. Some games can have Eddie, Stevo, Terry, Barrie and Phil all chirping in at some stage. Plus we have Cummings in there too just to add an extra bit of twaddle.

Clare Balding and Tanya Arnold. Good presenters rather than just the old boys.

To be fair I think sky will go out their way to give him a big send off.

'Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes ...YESSSSSSSS.......THAT.....was a try!! '

could work.

Carney takes himself too seriously. Needs someone with a personality for sure, because the current crop don't cut it for me...

Tony Rea is my choice. Knowledgeable, not afraid to give an informed opinion and (for an Aussie) quite humble. Was excellent on the Catalans game last week.
