John “Faxe” Jensen is famous for his big personality in Denmark and does a lot of punditry as well.

He’s actually basically the Danish Ray Parlour in Denmark which is quite funny.

Worthy of a mention in all time shite signings. Him and Jimmy Carter were big money signings that GG got wrong.

I was at several games when he didn’t score. :grinning:

Helder and Schwarz weren’t much better either.
I don’t what happened to Graham but he seemed to lose his touch in the transfer market after the great buys, when he first came here, like Bould, Winterburn, Dixon, Seaman, Smith, Wright, etc.

Why do so many of these old clips contain Martin Tyler’s voice when he clearly wasn’t commentating on the game at the time?

It’s always so obvious it been added in years later lol

Not sure on that you know. Was a regional commentator for awhile and remember him being a big part of 86 world cup.
These sort of add ons turn up a lot though on YouTube tbf.

There’s a few clips I’ve seen where I know he wasn’t commentating on the game at the time but his voice had been dubbed over it.

Think it’s quite obvious too, because he shows next to no enthusiasm and everything seems forced. I’ll try and find a few of the clips but I’ve never been so sure of something lol

Probably part of some highlight VHS released with a new commentator. Remember A LOT of these given out in the 90’s.

Yeah that makes total sense.

@Stroller

Take this for example;

This is clearly commentary from the game. And then if you check the Arsenal Media version of the game they’ve got Martin Tyler pretending he was commentating on the game. It’s really annoying lol

Might it be to do with Andy Gray commentary being dubbed over for any sky sports clips after his controversy and sacking?
