Go take a good look at yourself. How can you say, no disrespect, then ridicule an impediment ???!!! If he offends you so much, turn off. Do you not think he is well aware of it ?Horteng wrote:No disrespect to James Young but his stutter is so frustrating coming over the radio. Not the right voice for radio I’m afraid
Absolutely . I like him, he’s quite good, can’t really notice it myself .. I focus on the quality of content , not the delivery ....Ihearye wrote:Go take a good look at yourself.

Not supposed to come across as a ridicule. Just saying it’s a painful listenIhearye wrote:Go take a good look at yourself. How can you say, no disrespect, then ridicule an impediment ???!!!

Sam Jones is a disgrace. A distinct lack of effort and interest.
Listening to that it's hard to take, obviously they are up there again for a reason but I hope we see a turn around in results to boost confidence. Sounded like the equaliser for them was extremely jammy would have been interesting if that hadn't of gone in to what would have happened for the rest of the game.
Quite a unbelievable comment to make in 2018, to publicly state that condition that can cause someone untold anguish as 'frustrating to you', is bang out of order.Horteng wrote:No disrespect to James Young but his stutter is so frustrating coming over the radio.

It is because James Young is the most intellectual and intelligent and rational thinking of the commentators. Horteng dislikes such qualities and much prefers the frothing ranty nonsense from the likes of Halliwell.longmover wrote:Quite a unbelievable comment to make in 2018, to publicly state that condition that can cause someone untold anguish as 'frustrating to you', is bang out of order.Horteng wrote:No disrespect to James Young but his stutter is so frustrating coming over the radio.

I honestly can say I have not detected a stutter from James,. He talks sense.
As regards the game it is obvious there are fitness issues, and in Sam Jones a lack of effort - can we ship him out ?
Don't forget when SC took over he started with two defeats.......
It sounded like we gave a good account of ourselves in the first half, then hit by a goal just after the interval. We won't play many teams like Exeter.

I have never ever detected a stutter from James Young either but if he does have one then Horteng is right to question why he should be commentating. After all, despite him being a right old boffin, you wouldn't let David Blunkett loose in Air Traffic Control. That's not prejudice, its common sense.
However, reading some of Naughty Horty's previous posts I suspect I sense a personal agenda, he doesn't like the press, he sounds like a Republican redneck with all that Fake News fake propogander nonsense. Almost as if the Forest was the deep South, rather than the deep South West, albeit it with more Chantelles than Joleens.
Turning to the football, then looking at your match stats then you should be very encouraged by today even if the result didn't go your way. One nil up away to second in the table, and five shots on target from a team still adjusting to their new manager's way, that's got be acceptable for many fans who would be happy with mid table as being a significant improvement on previous years?
Doesn't it?

How's your broadband speed out in the rednecks Horty. Maybe the stuttering is buffering?

Sometimes lack of ability or lack of match fitness can be mistaken for lack of effort. In the majority of cases when fans talk about the latter it is usually one of the former.

Nope and I wasn’t claiming to - you will see I simply said usually in the majority of cases. Had I witnessed I could comment on the specific player and may draw the conclusion he was not trying. As it is, I will default to the norm which is the comments on here are incorrect.Alf wrote:Did you witness his performance?
Well, in this case, it falls into the minority category. His ability may have been affected by nerves but the way to cover that is to work hard and look busy. He didn’t do either. I wouldn’t write him off at this stage but I think when he looks at his performance he may feel he could have done things differently.

As I said, without being there to see it I cannot judge so will go with the balance of probability until I see evidence first hand.Alf wrote:Well, in this case, it falls into the minority category.
