  Ha ha.. yeah man me too... and the commentary is like wah lau! i never knew football was so boring kind of thing... And it makes the EPL commentary sound so much better and professional too...
  
  The serie A is just there to let you compare the good from the bad... And i guess it must have been cheap too or our channel 5 wouldn't have paid a "big deal" for it...

  Because the commentary cannot keep you awake mah.
  
  Admit it, most people watch EPL because of the commentators' ability to keep people interested.
  
  If S-League can get some top-class commentators, people will also tune in to S-League too, even though we all know its standard.

  Yes,to let us know why English football is still in the Jurassic Period.

  This quote is still damm fu-cking valid over 50 years later!

  Actually Serie A is good. I remember waytching Lazio vs Milan recently. Lazio short pass is fantastic. Simple yet effective. Just a simple 3 man triangle formation one touch pass can unlock a defense at ease.. But finishing is another problem.

  Lazio got owned by Ambro, Gila and Ricky.
  
  EPL is always the same.. attack attack attack.
  
  Serie A is more on tactical brilliance.

  at times the commentators jus merely read the names of the player who is on the ball!!! he will go like:
  kaka...
  Gilardino...
  seedorf...
  kaka...

  If Martin Tyler is the commentator, then Serie A would be interesting. It'll help if Italian stadiums got rid of their running tracks too.

  He used to commentate during the 1990s.
  
  Only a few stadiums have running tracks,Rome Olympic stadium and Juve's Stadio Del Appi.

  at least serie a commentaries are much better than la liga....
  
  they turn down the crowd volume also...which is a shame...u can't feel the atmosphere....the italians could also do with confiscating flares and fireworks before the match so u won't see fogs at the goalkeeping areas...
  
  last season serie a final day was just as exciting as epl....and chievo like sheff utd favs to stay up but shot themselves in the foot as well....
