If you watch our recent game against Stains on sky and listen to him when we score a try in the 1st minute he is clearly absolutely gutted!!

Totally agree with you both.i watched it abroad and couldn't hear the sound properly but I imagined as much.i was at Central park in the early sky sports years and saw him jumping up and down near the old sully bar with a few saints fans saying we' ve done em we' ve done um.my eyes and ears don't lie

Why they haven't upgraded from those two is beyond me.

Get over it. Dave Woods on t'BBC is a Wigan supporter through and through, just like his wife and mother in law who come into his commentary regularly.

Does it matter if a man like Hemmings does not like Wigan? Not sure why anyone would make this post

You could argue he has undue influence on matters outside his job. Going into apoplexy over the Flower incident in last years GF springs to mind.
A biased media can and does have an effect.

I really don't care that he is biased against Wigan,my problem is he's just a poor comentator his contant high pitched whine really puts me off sky's coverage.
