I couldn’t do her job - but I don’t think N Q is really very good

Brandon is embarrassing on screen, may well do a good job behind the scenes

Tatum is ok, knowledgable and has strong points of view, and can be amusing

Pearson is . . . . best not say!

Rowe and Goddard are poor but an improvement on Pearson

Ermolenko is actually quite amusing as you await his standard mis-pronunciations and odd phrases

And the foreign lady interviewer is probably very nice, but why is she used?

Seems like you wouldn’t approve of anyone.

Quirke is very poor when compared to Sophie Blake

Sophie Blake is adequate when compared to Suzi Perry

Perry ultimate Motor Sport professional and speedway fan

BTW anyone remember when Julia Bradbury did it??...

I seem to recall she covered Channel Four's (?) edited version of the Grand Prix with expert Sam Ermolenko?

Brando is the 'floor manager of choice' for a very wide selection of televised sports so maybe wouldn't be able to commit.?

Nowt wrong with Nat, Nige and Kelv. They do a grand job.

They need to get a second rider in the studio with Scott though, you need a different perspective, instead of them just agreeing with each other.

I remember the early days of the gp's with Keith Huewen, with Wiggy, Briggo, PC and Tatum. Now THAT was a panel.

The biggest problem that Kiri B has is that she does not think about the level of English many foreign riders have ( non native English speakers ). She does not put her questions in graduated English and thus there is often a non comprehension response ( eye action and body language ) which Kiri is unaware of. You can hear and see that some riders just give their own answer which is not related to her questions in any way.

Dont see Charlie returning to speedway, she has moved on and up, proving she must've done something right to get the kind of presenting jobs she is doing these days.

Not quite sure what your expecting, whoever is doing the rider questions has only a short time and probably only a couple of questions, I mean she isn't there to open a debate. I've seen some of the longer interviews Kiri Bloore does on the SGP page and Twitter and I think she does a good enough job.
