    Probably. As usual stumbling over boxers' names and making awkward conversation with the guests. I'm usually no Dave Darts fan, but its only when he's gone that you appreciate he isn't really all that bad.

    Yep - well happy with that. Certainly makes getting up for Sunday morning football a lot easier, thats's for sure!

  4. Got a feeling Sky may want there A team for the boxing to Dave Darts or Smith I reckon, cant see them wanting to give Newbon this gig. Maybe he will fill in at the darts for Dave

    It won't be Dave Clarke.

    Apparently Ian Darke is doing the commentary though :happy

    Matt Macklin tweeted yesterday about having a chat with Jim Watt and Ian Darke. Sounded like that was gonna be the commentary team but I am just guessing.

  9. Halling must have been sent home for this gig unless Darke is commentating for somebody else

    Pretty sure halling is doin the commentary. Darke is better but halling isn't bad either. Gary newbon is awful in the studio he should stick to the greyhounds

    I guess we'll find out when the last countdown show starts in a bit. They usually cross over and we'll see whether it's Halling, Darke or Smith then.

    Might put up a betting market:

    Nick Halling - 5/6
    Ian Darke - 5/6
    Adam Smith - 5/1

    Any takers? :think

    Nah, Halling has to be favourite by a mile.

    I'm backing Darke due to Macklin's twitter and Ian Darke's own Twitter where he has mentioned Froch and Ward in a few posts!!!
