World Cup mics

[gareth101]

The world cup microphones must be the lamest mics in the world ever. They make anyone who wears them look like a complete dick. I was wondering what bothered me about them and then I realised that their like the cotton buds that people used to use to clean the earwax out of their ears.

I thought you were going to be talking about the things that look like long haired terriers around the edges of the pitch :)

They are so stupid-looking. What was ever wrong with shirt-mikes?

ITV obviously think it makes them look 'cutting edge'.

They look awful and there's absolutely no need for them at all.

Cant they pass a law saying no football on itv or something i'd vote for someone who said they would do that

Anyone watch Sky Sports News this morning. We had poor Kelly Dalglish having a "Paxman" moment with some heavy coughing and in immediate need of some water. The poor girl was struggling with words. Her eyes were watering. When she handed back to that other girl in the UK studio (Alex something) she was trying her best to hold back her laugh. :lol:

I saw it!! Felt sorry for the girl. She was struggling.

Especially on the older pundits like vanables and Allerdyce.

Thanks for backing me up guys. Glad to see it wasn't just my imagination, these mics really do suck big time. The TV critic in the Sun Ally Ross was taking the mick out of the mics today.

They stuck a black mike onto Gullit's face the other night..

They fired Big Ron for less... :razz:

Aren't these the same mics that the referee's are wearing? Maybe they want to form an associated empathy with the plight of Poll?
