Just saw Dennis on the Sky Preview show. Poor bugger. He had to talk up the new A League show but you could see he was struggling, like a guy at his own funeral. I feel for the guy. After all he has done to try and give soccer a presence on the channel, and they do that to him. It looked like they had sapped the joy right out of him.
His bright and sometimes OTT style wasn't for everyone, and sometimes he tried too hard, but I will miss his contribution to the sad little ship that is soccer on the box in this country.
Hope he finds another vessel soon, he's been treated like Roger the cabin boy on Sky .

Kids Kingz with him hosting it was fantastic viewing... aimed just perfectly at the kids that make up so much of the game.  A show like that about the Nix each week would be fantastic if it was given a real chance.

How's my driving? - Whine here

Presenting a TV show while at his own funeral?
Now that would be tricky ... unless he's some kind of zombie?

He's great with the light hearted banter, I always really liked him, but I didn't think his style quite workd on game day.  He'd be great on a socceram style show

Normo's coming home
