    He's only been on Virgin Media's coverage for every match for the last few years, not sure why I'm acting so surprised at this, still great to get wit and insight from the great man!

    Nothing wrong with Kerr. He's got loads of experience behind him. I'd listen to him all day.

    I'm constantly baffled by people who give out about Kerr's accent. He's always spoken like that and never tries to hide where he's from. Much rather that than lads getting on commentary with a fake accent. There's a reason why he's on most games and that's because he knows the game inside out. A dublin accent isn't really a plus point in media circles

    Absolute legend of Irish football and now of punditry and commentary.

    Genuinely loves the sport, has always done his research about the game he is about to be commentating on, has a wonderful turn of phrase, and isn't contrarian for the sake of it.

    Virgin and Newstalk know what they are doing, and featuring lots of Kerr shows that.

    Hopefully Kerr’s move to O’ Sheas team will keep him off Virgin Media.

    We can watch a game in peace without the constant whine.

    Hopefully, anyway.

    He’ll still be on Virgin, and rightly so.

    You should listen to what he says, and not how he says it.

    You might learn a little bit about football.

    I’m sure he’s a nice lad, but I really couldn’t go through that.

    Soz, shaft.

    Let’s hope O’Shea gives him the boot after the two games.

    I know it’s just two games. But the lad is yesterdays man.

    Whats the old saying. “Every dog has his day”

    Pack it in dude….. game is up.

    The great man should be back in the main job again, but then we wouldn't hear his sharp insights and wit on commentary, I'd be against it because of that.

    Here's a thought! If you don't like someone on TV just ignore them. No need to come onto a public forum over the course of 5 years whinging about him..

    Disappointing there's no great man tonight, even worse this match is a waste of time, should have shown Madrid Leipzig instead.
