    Announcer Mark has been getting slated latley on here(myself included) for his bland style and errors!.He did a nice & improved job tonight on the Burns card I thought- in a kind of solid/understated 'British' way. Hes no Buffer/JLJ- But if he keeps up his improvement, he deserves to keep doing these kind of solid shows, and fwank can bring in one of the 'big guns' for a big 'ppv' night.

    This 'thread' dosnt really merit many replies!. But as ive allways liked MB through his acting caraer(old enough to remember him in Grange Hill!) I thought i'd give him a shout for upping his game and doing his best. Hes trying to hold down a job and getting slated online cant help! so credits due for a good performance tonight.

    I have to admit to not being a fan of any ring anoncer...I don't give a ****....get em in the ring and get em at it. That ten minute ****ing about periof when everybody is ready to go but Buffer has to do his bit is ****ing interminable

    ***Operation Good Guy is ****ing class

    He did allright tonight. He was under pressure and upped his game I thought- Nice and Tidy- threw a nice few expressions (his days at RADA/SYLVIA YOUNGS not wasted) got his lines right- solid. Claire! would have been proud of him.
