can I speak to (what might turn out to be) a contentious subject... And it's in the area of media... As someone who only has the match highlights/ club game replay or other television coverage... I want to raise the match commentary provided by the club.
Having watched the grand final on the sportsman... I then also watched with TC's commentary and was shocked at the number of times TC called the wrong player. Now having watched the full replay if the Cas game I ultimately lost count of the numbers of errors in calling players, of both sides (but particularly trinity players... I initially counted over 30 occasions in the first hour). It's probably me but I found myself getting distracted, and I don't think it helps fans identifying with players on the pitch.
I love TC and grew up watching him play in the seventies, and this is no criticism of the man, his commitment and joy for the club is unquestionable...but I'm not sure he's the right person for the job any more... Everyone needs to retire at some stage
Love his passion for the club, but have to agree. All commentators make mistakes, but TCs are becoming a bit too frequent. I freely admit it's not a job I could do...I have to ask what's going on when plays at the other end of the field...but TC doesn't do the job justice anymore. It hurts to say that, and I've defended him in the past, but there's a time to move on for everyone.
