I mean, it's like, well, we know we're going to have this point of view.

And with Lester, maybe he did do that, but he just made it seem a lot less kind of contrived maybe as it comes across now at times.
Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?
Yeah.
Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?
And that's what you want.
Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?

Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?
They are really, really good.

You were always kind of at home as soon as the broadcast started.

But I think there is this kind of idea that's out there that all analysis has to be like extraordinarily accurate and technically correct.

Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?
But all I want to know from my pundits, historically, is what they think.
Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Michael Lyster remembered | Mick McCarthy shots fired | What do viewers want from their pundits?
