Jermaine Beckford - A revelation!

[Phube]

Whatever your thought on feelings on him as an LCFC players (probably not very positive). I thought his stint as a pundit on RL yesterday (the post game stuff) was excellent.

 

He was clear, articulate, informative, insightful and interesting to listen to (compared to some much more highly regarded ex-players). Thoroughly enjoyed it.

 

Just me or anyone else think this? 

[Ric Flair]

Watched him a number of times when on EFL Sky coverage last season. He's knowledgeable and likeable.

 

 

[CrazyKopCorner]

Blimey I'll have to listen back as he came across as a complete and utter tool when he played for us 

[lcfcsnow]

Thought he just towed the line, I turned off when he started harping on about how well Reid and Daka played ? co-commentator needs to be a former player that has an affinity to the club and cares

[Kinowe Soorie]

Better talker than he was as a finisher.

[ClaphamFox]

Listened to the WYS podcast this morning. He was articulate and insightful - and seemed genuinely gutted that we’d lost. I really liked him.

Hence the revolution part. 
 

Only weak people can’t summarise!

The bad rap he gets is totally unjustified.Always found him to be one of the better pundits on TalkSport whenever he’s been on.He’s lived a bit which helps.

Also came to the rescue of an elderly lady who had collapsed during Covid,on his way to TalkSport duty which he immediately down played.That and other positive stuff I’ve heard about him.

[Nolucklcfc]

He’s done a bit of a U-turn since being a player as he hated giving interviews 

[teblin]

Very impressed with him actually on the podcast.

[foxer]

Quite an easy gig for someone who doesn't feel pressure.

. He's an absolute ****. Genuinely scummy. Remember him smashing up David Forde's face with an elbow and then laughing when asked about it in the post match interview.

[sphericalfox]

He only shows up for the cup games though innit.

[evil jack]

Vastly preferable to Mike Stowell.

No pressure there then - As you say a very low bar 

[Pliskin]

Listened to it today, I was thinking this, he comes across really well!

[bovril]

Always comes over well when I've heard him.

[Finnegan]

Hasn't he done a decent amount of Sky Sports EFL stuff? I'm sure I've seen him on the TV a few times and been impressed. 

 

[smudgerfox]

I couldn’t believe he was doing it but he was good - second in the queue to Pipes definitely…

 

Fryatt is  the worst - says nothing that you wouldn’t hear in the pub ..Howard not much better, Stowell is dull as well but he does know more about the internal thinking of the club and offers the occasional insight - even if it’s not a quarter of what he knows.

[Bourbon Fox]

Careful, Rudkin will offer him a 7-year contract on a million pounds a week

It's "toed" as in toes on the line. You're welcome.

I thought he came across really really well and enjoyed listening to him.

 

He was talking about one of the players being sold an ‘obvious dummy’ and how they are making stuff harder for themselves by not reading the game. And comparing the foul throw to that of his 11 year old son playing Sunday league with his mates! Bloody loved him. 

[blueharmie]

Doesn't feel pressure 

[CrazyKopCorner]

I think it was the Leeds game last year and he was hugely over the top in his support of Leeds especially as he'd played for us. 

 

He comes across okay on the podcast but it's not changed my mind he's still a massive bellend

Not quite in the Clinton Morriston  league but another one with talks in that ridiculous  street language  innit
