Worst pundit?

The other thread got me thinking, who do you reckon is the worst football pundit?
Well obviously it's Ian Wright, so who's the second worst?
I'd say mine is Archie McPherson. On Scotsport last night the senile old fool started slagging us off because we celebrated an opposition player (their best player by a mile tbh) getting sent off on Saturday. I think if he had his way we'd all be politely clapping when the opposition scored a goal like they probably did in the 1880's when he started his career. Fucking idiot.
Either him or Gerry McNee. While he's spot on when he says Rangers have more to do to beat the bigots than Celtic do, he can't stand the fact that we've got a relatively successful team. Like most of the hacks from the Daily Retard and The Hun, he's still bitter about the 80's when we had a successful team. We didn't know our place and we were just supposed to be those sheep shaggers from up north, and the likes of him hated it when we were winning league titles and conquering Europe. Now when we've got a decent team challenging for the Champions League place he says "we're a mess and Jimmy has a lot of work to do". Who ever said ignorance is bliss, eh?
Erm, yeah bit of a tangent there.

I'd concur with Ian Wright. Mark Lawrenson is a miserable git and adds nothing of note. Jamie Redknapp is really pushing Ian Wright for the crown though.
Richard Keys............now there's a twat..........every game is the biggest ever with him and different teams are in or out of the title race every week. It's always over by October with Keys.
Personally, I'd say THE worst is David Pleat.
On bad days Clive Tyldesley, Alan Green and Andy Gray deserve to be included too.
Presenter: John Barnes
Pundits: Ian Wright, Mark Lawrenson, and some twat from a tabloid newspaper because they can't book anyone else in time.
Commentary Team: John Motson and David "can't pronounce a simple word" Pleat
Agreed, Worst Pundit has to be Andy Gray - Absolute Tosser
My Dream Team:
Presenter:- come back to you on that one
Pundits:- Ian Wright, Alan Hansan (Giz a wave), Jamie Redknapp
Comentary: John Motson and John Barnes.
Plus Ian Wright.
I also hate Mark Bright, because he's even more boring than Brian Moore.
At least Ian Wright is humourous.
Its at times like this I miss Barry Davies.
I like motty tho, agreed mark bright is well iritating!
Edit: I forgot Jimmy Hill and Chris Kamara. Both idiots...
I think Jonathan Pearce is a great commentator. Rarely makes mistakes and shows passion.
I forgot! He's close to Andy Gray, I think if england beat brazil 25-0 shearer would say "it may not have been englands best performance, but its the result that counts".
that's his name, passion's one word i suppose....to be fair there are worse, i just can't stand listening to the guy because he sounds like he's creamed himself every time there's a decent tackle or pass, maybe he's watched too many sunday league matches or something lol.
Ian Wright makes me laugh because most of his punditry about England games is based on his bitterness about the fact that SWP isn't playing...
Ian Wright is a clown who shouldn't be anywhere near a TV studio. He's all 'innit' and 'geezer' when it's going sweet, and when things aren't going England's way he huffs and starts going on about how they need a bit of flair on the wing.... wonder where you're going with that Ian? About as subtle as a kick in the teeth.
Hanson is a moron who loves to criticize. I'd almost watch a 0-0 if it meant I wouldn't have to listen to this cunt constantly moaning about the defending.
Lawrenson is an unfunny, stupid haircut, drunken bastard.
Shearer is a stupid cunt. Obviously the only reason he's a pundit is because he would have been too thick to go into management.
As is Redknapp. Jamie likes to keeps things simple, but sometimes you think a pre-schooler would do a better job. "What you get with Thierry Henry is someone who can score you goals." Really Jamie? Fucking hell, such insight.
David Pleat is a senile joke who doesn't know his Arsenal from his elbow.
Robot Wars and Motson are awful commentators.
By far the biggest of all cunt commentators is Alan Green. I've never heard such a biased, spiteful, ABU commentator in all my life. I swear he's about to break down in tears anytime United score and he's commentating. I can only imagine what he must have been like when O'Shea scored the last minute winner against his beloved Liverpool 2 weeks ago.
OK, I think it's safe to say now who I do like. Almost all are from Sky, who are the only people who can put on a decent football broadcast.
Andy Gray - Got good knowledge of the game and always does a good job covering the match. He's passionate about football too. Only criticism is that under Sky's orders I presume he rarely likes to criticise high profile players e.g. Henry/Ronaldo dive - "he just loses his balance there" No Andy, he dived.
Chris Kamara - Good entertainment and has a limitless knowledge of lower league football.
Gerry Armstrong - Covers the Spanish games on Sky. Best commentator they have IMO. Should be put on Premiership matches but I think he loves having the Spanish job, can't blame him I suppose. Another one with fantastic knowledge of the game, and knows La Liga inside out.
I'm doing a course in Sports Journalism next year so maybe i'll end up working with these guys
Where the hell has Barry Davies got to? I always liked his commentaries as they were always full of spite about how he had to play second fiddle to Motty for so long.
I like Alan Green, he tells it like it is and isn't afraid of Fergie's gin-soaked ranting. He slags Liverpool off more than most, too.
