    Phil and Paul

    a lot of what you have mentioned regarding landmarks and rivers im sure 99% of viewers are not really that bothered . the lotto and astana points you make are sloppy mistakes fair enough but mistaking a rider on day1 of the tour is hardly a crime . hes still a quality commentator in my opinion...
