Seriously, does anyone really like Phil 'Tuffers' Tufnel

[twentysix by twentyfive]

Test Match Special. "Tuffers" is one of the summarisers.

Should've used this smiley instead

Ah well. I was griping to myself about people using abbreviations without first explaining them in the context of another thread, so...

I wonder if when he Google's his name this thread will come up?

I hope you plan on highlighting how wrong rich and Steve are with their use of QOS (which is Queen of the South football club abbreviation)

He cracks me up on TMS.
I didn't realise that QOS was still on.

I quite enjoy QoS, but would prefer it without Matt Dawson

And how splendid I am to use AQOS.

AQOS hasn't been the same since David Coleman left.

And before him it was David Vine.

I thought I could guess all the captains but was not very good at all. I entertained my family in a Tuffers-stylee whilst trying to guess them tho.

TMS? Is that a Lady's complaint?

Heathen.

 

[Slick]

I've never liked cricket, so I've only known him in AQOS. He's not Ally McCoist but he's good fun and a good sport. What's not to like.

 

[Chromatic]

He is a tw@, but Dawson is infinitely more tw@ish

Tuffers is ok , be a good lad to have a couple of pints with ,
I remember him playing in Australia in the 90's , the Aussies lapped him up ,

 

[gavgav]

I think he's a good guy and well worth a listen on TMS.

Why do watch TV that have people you don't like on it? Switch the thing off.

Is Emlyn Hughes still on?

Vintage stuff with Willey Carson and Emlyn Hughes.
It used to be a semi serious sports quiz not the current joke format with charades.

 

[byegad]

Lady Byegad likes 'Question of Sport' on which he's a team captain.

His 'I'm thick so expect to be treated differently' attitude gets right under my skin.

 

[Accy cyclist]

I hate him. I'm sure i once read that he attacked his wife and broke her jaw. A con man, but then there are plenty of them on the tv.

 

[MarquisMatsugae]

Very underrated spin bowler.
Knows his stuff on TMS and plays to the camera on QofS for the entertainment value.
He's a good chap who went up against the stuffiness of the cricket authorities,and the stuffiness of some of his straight laced team mates.
I like him for that.

 

[MarquisMatsugae]

But the domestic violence and abuse stuff does outweigh all that.

I know nothing of that.
Please enlighten oh bearded one ?
