James Allen: a vast pool of knowledge and quotes

Take a look at some of these quotes and remind yourself of why James Allen is britains best loved motorsports commentator! Also relive some classic Blundell and Kravitz moments.

Or try the James Allen simulator!

And finally the old favourite, the phrase book:

This thread is my tribute to one of britains greats.

Yes, the basic situation is that Head of ITV Sport Brian Barwick (a big James Allen supporter, apparently) is off to be Chief Executive of the FA.

Others in ITV are said to prefer Ben Edwards.

Time will tell.

Perhaps Barwick could get Allen a job with him because he's good at FA too!

"Raikkonen really doesn't want to big up the hurrah on this lap."

That comes from the Simulator - possibly the naffest of all.
