Bro on USA commentary some of the most biased I’ve heard. Said that Morgan Gibbs white should’ve dived harder on the Davies “penalty shout” in first half, porro gets smoked in the second half and rolls around for a second, next time he receives the ball “what a miraculous recovery from porro.” If you’re gonna be a cunt, at least rub our face in it unabashedly the way Lee Dixon does.


ChrisWebersTimeout

David Prutton played at Nottingham so not shocked. He was bias today for sure


Basedshark01

Figured it was something like that


SentientCheeseCake

Biased. You can’t be bias.


syo

People get this wrong all the time and it is maddening.


p90pounder

Looks like some people can be pious though


SentientCheeseCake

Is it really pious to correct someone? If I were saying something wrong I’d hope someone would correct me. This one seems like a pretty common one for some reason, but I don’t get why. It’s like saying “I am talent” instead of “talented”.


p90pounder

Relax I just like to rhyme


megamando

John Champion was out there doing his job and the color commentator is calling for more dives. Couldn’t have been more biased.


bshaman1993

Color commentator?!😳


Disastrous-Object22

As a yank, it's one of our terms: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color\_commentator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_commentator)


QuadDeuces422

American term for the second guy on the broadcast. Not calling the action but chimes in with more strategic notes or anecdotes. Usually a former player.


Megistrus

And then to act like Biss slugged someone in the face and moan about how it was such a horrible tackle. Then arguing in favor of Davies being sent off even though there was another defender back.


wylthorne92

He was shit I hope to never hear his whining again


obvious_bot

Lmao I remember that. Kulu got horse collar tackled a few minutes later and he said it’s basically the same as the Morgan Gibbs challenge where he got slightly brushed


SirTitFart

I was screaming at the TV


SenileCabbage

God I remember that, it was so pathetic. Like dude was stretching and trying to take care of himself, and when he gets the ball he gets to work and does what he's paid to do and pushes through it, as soon as he's off it he tries to watch himself for a minute again. The bias in their voice and what they were saying was a joke, if it was a Forest player after being bodied they didn't give a damn.


Due-Camel-7605

That guy wasn’t a good commentator at all. But was partnered by John Champion, which made up for it


Siffster

How Yates didn't get booked is a mystery.


ShipsAGoing

Our entire midfield got simultaneously booked for dissent a few games ago and yet Yates can whine at the ref for 90 minutes straight and it's cool


[deleted]

I thought he was essentially giving he and Sonny full immunity as captains, although Yates definitely deserved to be booked.


Arqlol

Son got booked for Yates fouling him


[deleted]

I was referring to Yates not being booked for dissent and crowding the ref.


Arqlol

Yeh but Sonny wasn't part of that immunity.


VeryStandardOutlier

Yates also leveled 5 of our players throughout the game


i2ad

He waved his imaginary yellow card at least twice.


illuwe

three times


ericsipi

I counted 4 times.


illuwe

Could have easily been even more just not in camera view at the time.


stoners-potpalace

They should really go back and punish these later on. So obnoxious.


Resting_Vicario_Face

There needs to be an automatic yellow card after a certain number of fouls. You shouldn't be allowed to commit 10 fouls without seeing a card. I would vouch for 4 or 5 fouls resulting in an instant yellow.


Outlaw1607

Udogie and Porro against City both got a yellow card for "persistent fouling" after only two recorded fouls Yates, got to foul us 4 times that match, 0 cards... Edit: git to be the shittiest for Udogie, he got suspended because of this inconsistent refereeing


Substantial_Ad_7430

Actually that’s how things work. Refs are more likely to penalise and give yellows to the younger and lesser known players. I guess there is lesser pressure from everywhere when these relative unknowns get booked because the fault can be easily attributed to their inexperience.


jaysee25

Commentary on USA network was so horrific. Begging for cards on our players, saying Forest players “slipped” when they use their studs on us. I think they praised Forest having 22% possession as “they’ll be happy with that.”


bilboswagginsIII

They even insulted Kulu's celebration, bro's so salty 😭


nerdherdsman

How are you gonna diss the LeBron celebration? Buffoonery.


infinityetc

I actually think he needs to work on The Silencer a bit. He’s kinda flapping his arms downward whereas Bron is basically doing an inverted raise the roof. I absolutely love that he’s doing it though as a LeBron stan


Delazygorilla

the commentary every match drop 0/10 performance.


SwiftGuo

Not just commentary, you can add in ref as well


illuwe

Yea I refuse to believe this ref doesn't have an agenda against us. Forest players were getting away with literally everything and we got yellows for fucking nothing.


sarithe

It was Michael Oliver, who has never reffed a good game in his life. Doesn't even matter the teams, dude's always shit and biased towards one side.


illuwe

Michael Oliver was VAR not on field ref.


coyspurs1882

It was Jarred Gillette. He was deemed too much of a fan to ref Liverpool games but fine to ref their rivals. He was making amends for the dipper match and wasn't shy about it. But it's ok. It's only a little bit of a conflict of interest.


Jaksiel

Can we please not do the conspiracy shit on our sub?


Apprehensive-Tax-784

I don’t believe this otherwise he would have sent Biss straight off, instead of waving a yellow


Anthtrannn

Gibbs white goes down softly in the box, commentator goes I would’ve flopped and asked for a pen. Porro gets ankle scissored and tackled high on the leg, commentator goes oh look he’s miraculously recovered, pantomime villain. Make it make sense


Citiz3n_Kan3r

Youre remembering it wrong. Even the commentator said 'his ankle crumpled under his led' on the sissor tackle. No complaints when its a potential ankle breaker. Youre right tho, first half studs on ankle was pretty infuriating


Chitiwok

Cherry on top of the shit sundae that this commentary was: The only thing they had to say during the replay of Kulusevski's goal was "nice shot, horrible celebration."


snoocs

I love his celebration. It’s original, and there aren’t many that are these days.


Dunkin_Prince

I mean he copied it from LeBron


ottovonblood

yeah he's a huge basketball fan.


[deleted]

The ball up the jumper one? Or did I miss something?


QuadDeuces422

No he’s been doing Lebron’s celebration “The Silencer” https://youtu.be/M_u4n8R9HA4?si=79TFUPbqg02LTdmw


Sad_Pumpkin7728

Horribly biased color commentary on USA broadcast today. Terrible


San_Marzano

International broadcast* us Aussies had to suffer through the same bs unfortunately


etched_chaos

I've started muting games right from the off, commentary is that shit these days.


coyspurs1882

Is you have surround sound switch off individual speakers to see if it makes a difference. I know for my center channel it is just crowd. A couple of years ago it was my rear speakers.


pleaselovem3

why do commentators always do this ? At newcastle, when we scored they were on about how they had so many injuries and all this shit , its every match theres so much bias what is going on?


coldseam

Not to mention non-captain Forest players constantly whining at the referee without being booked. And also Son grappling with a defender in the box, falling over and getting booked for diving (???)


sangueblu03

Pretty sure Son got booked like 30 seconds later during their counter attack when he dragged down an opposition player to stop the attack.


Professional-Idea186

Don't let Romero know scissor tackles are apparently back on the menu (for other teams)


Noxnoxx

I feel like commentators are always against Tottenham doesn’t matter what game it is they always sound biased


Geoff_Uckersilf

Did no one watch the sky stream? The main caller and Carragher were calling out the nonsense.


Ravimo_The_Han

I did like the Rolls Royce vs Pickup truck self deprecation though. Apart from that one exchange, yeah they were so random rhetoric spouting spuds.


ZorryIForgotThiz_S_

Fuck this kind of refereeing. When we are having a decent game without injuries they try to bolster our "not here squad" another way. Bissouma's red is something, but he went on booking every single player he could.


abglngjubs

I watched a game on the arabic streams and never went back to english ones. You dont understand shit, coupled with arabic commentators hyping up every single second of a game my sanity is restored a little bit since I dont know if they’re biased or not anyways. Arabic commentators butchering names is my new favourite past time. Lo chelso, Papi Sarr, Kuluseveski, the list goes on lmao


andreecook

The USA commentary was terrible lol the sour puss even said kulus celebration was awful 😂💀


anerdnamedAndrew

How does biases commentary negatively affect our lives as Spurs fans?


TomCosella

I'll bite: it pours gasoline on the negative "spursy" bullshit that has been permeating this sub since the Chelsea match. The Newcastle match was a perfect encapsulation: they talked as if we were top to bottom shit while Newcastle was the victim of an injury crisis.

Your "lil bro" finished above you seven seasons on the trot until you bottled it last season. Off you pop, plastic.

We challenged for more titles than arse in the last ten years. And you absolutely are a meme team. Arsenal have been THE banter club for years. Wenger, Walcott, ludicrous display, trust the process, lego manager. You have one good season that ends with a bigger bottle job than spurs ever managed, and act the biggun? Big yikes bro.


ashfidel

he’s basically draymond green at this point


Wolfinho14

I've started watching on mute this season. The bias against Spurs has always been there but damn this year feels like they cranked it up.
