I like Sid Waddel but "unless I'm very much mistaken", there is only one greatest of all time. The great Murray Walker;
"The car in front is completely unique, apart from the one behind it which is absolutely identical"
"There is nothing wrong with the car itself, apart from the fact that it's on fire"
And my personal favourite is
"And here comes Nelson Piquet... As he's now known... and always has been!"
The man is nothing short of a genius _________________ You're born with nothing, and better off that way,
As soon as you got something they send someone to try & take it away!
it's alright for you to listen to Sid Waddell Sham
bu I need a translator
Strange, thats what happens when I watch the queen _________________ 2008 Roll Of Honour (So Far....)

McLaren - dancing in the streets of Hawick tonight
Coleman - Juantorina just opened his legs and showed his class
Maskell - what a glorious american backhand
Waring - an up and under
Lowe - and for those with black and white the blue is behind the yellow
and finally for our scottish friends who will remember that great scottish radio commentator David Francey - he turned up late in Bulgaria and sat in his commentary position 3 mins into the Bulgaria v Scotland match to learn that Scotland were one down and turned to his producer and asked who scored to which he received the immortal reply f...ed if i know.
Francey switched on his mike and commentated " and here we are in Sofia Bulgaria where i have to report that Scotland are a goal down already thanks to a wonderful strike by ,. magic
And the absolute classic (Brian Johnson again!) where he corpsed about Ian Botham getting his leg over (the wicket...) I think Tim Rice even included this sequence as one of his Desert Island Discs!
John Arlott....
Of today, Henry Blofeld. He is a deliberate cariacture of himself. I also like Phil Tufnell very much - mordant humour and always a good insight.
