    Is it just me or does anyone else find it irritating Ed Chamberlin’s constant blathering about what a shame it is there are no crowds very irritating

    Of course it’s a shame and we’d all love things to be back to normal but we don’t need a constant reminder. Let’s be thankful there’s some racing

    His constant blathering about everything annoys me. Enthusiasm only takes you so far in this world. it already takes him too far.

    The thing that annoys me most about him recently was when he described racing fans dislike of the scotch egg recipe they showed as being 'hilarious'.

    Just shows the level of contempt he has for his core viewer.

    I like Ed Chamberlain but I’m dying to pull that stray tooth of his out. I can’t stop focusing on it when he’s talking.

    Richard Hannon, Richard Hughes, Richard Quinn... is it possible these wimmen are misinterpreting when people refer to these guys as 'Big Dick'?

    The gas thing is that it makes no difference to racing as a TV product. Or at least very little difference compared to other sports.

    Also gets on my goat when he starts mithering about races running late. I know he's probably got someone in his ear, fretting about times, but they ain't always going to behave down at the start for Ed's convenience.

    Jockeys strolling down when it's past off time does my nut in. They know when they should be down at the start.

    Does my nut in too but they wouldn't do it if they were disciplined for being late. Far too much slackness in that regard among officials.

    ITV has agreed a new 3 year deal...be nice to think they will shake up the current presenters by replacing some, but do not hold your breathe

    Not unique to her to 'move around' in the racing world. Not sure if Bell/Turner rumours were true - would they stand Hayley and recent ex next to each other if so? I doubt it.

    Or unless there was mutual indifference towards each other or their 'situation'.

    Does it really matter if they'd had a relationship? Didn't do anything to detract from Emma interviewing Jamie Spencer back in the day. As long as they are professional about it and not childish like some of the comments on here!!
