Always loved Johns, and his mates commentary back in the day,


Had some great catchphrases back in the day , I had the VHS/DVS  of the Reddy / Jones season review ,  and he always came out with crackers , I think his co-commentator was  his mate Dave (not sure if thats still the case )  

'Reddy is as fast as lighting Dave, it's quicksilver '
'Now there's interest '
'Yesss ,ohhh yesss '
'He's absolutely delighted '

Were a few I remember off the top of my head ,wish I still had the DVD's .

I used to frequent some of Roly's pubs and still have all the old videos and dvds. If I remember correctly John and the rest of the guys joined Roly in the early 80's as the commentary on quite a few of the highlights videos and dvds had Roly and John commentating together.

Although it was only a friendly the sheer pace, fitness and intensity of the first 60 minutes was excellent. I expect many late goals for us this season. The impact of quality subs, more pace and great fitness could be what breaks teams down in the last 20 minutes. I will be backing a few DRAW HT GTFC FT this season.

I really hope we do well  but we still look short in every way up front and I know we was against a good opposition although I believe on that showing Hull will struggle to stay in the championship I think we need a target man

The club's own John Moore was the commentator and the filming was provided by a streaming company that Hull City chose.


Thank you very much and all the others, for filling in his name; and interesting stories.

I thought the TV coverage was spot on, quick replays and the commentary was, I'm sorry to say, far better than JT.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Regardless of the pre-seasonness of the game, to only lose 2-1 over 120 mins to a championship team is a great result, especially considering the step up in quality from playing clee and borough just beforehand to a tier 2 team.  General consensus is we've improved the squad, and bearing in mind we were only a few goals away from being much higher than 11th last season the future is bright.  In El General we trust!
