Sound turned off if Carlton is commentating. Inane uninformed drivel

Just get rid of Carlton Kirby He is absolutely awful with his comments on the features of some of the cyclists calling them names like "Desperate Dan etc"

The incredible thing is that Kirby is so bad that it's hard to pick between him and that befuddled goober, Liggett.

We'll take Kirby off your hands if you take back Phil Liggett

Comments on here correct. He gets over-excited about everything. Almost hysterical.

Too true. Please complain to Discovery personally, using the links at the top of the petition.

Kirby will never be removed as any cycling fan who has suffered so long from having to listen to his pathetic irritating personality will know Eurosport must value his commentary Never came across any sport commentator that is so poor and who absolutely loves himself and just doesn’t care who he bores to tears and bluffs his way through a race He is there to stay it seems

Inane burbling. Too much reminising about pre-internet ideas and news. Borderline rude comments about some cyclists while singing praises about UK and Australian cyclists. Time to retire. Hire someone younger please

It is 2024....stupid jokes, endless giggling and chortling at his own nonsense, eulogising English and Australian cyclists. IT IS TOO silly

Kirby’s constant attempts at humor having nothing to do with the race is a tiresome distraction. It seems as though he doesn’t think the race can stand on its own.

I was going to watch the 2024 Tour of Romandie but Kirby is doing the commentary so I'm not.

Stand him up next to a mountain and chop him down with the edge of your hand.

Can’t watch when he is commentating: Every other comment ends with for goodness sake. Mildly annoying

Totally agree. There should be a petition to replace with Matt Stephen’s, Ned boulting, David millar or Dan Lloyd even.

I want commentary not the banal self indulgent weak jokes he makes then laughs at. His strange repetative obsession with roundabouts is annoying. I find I have to turn the sound off to give myself a break. I have watched for many years & tried to tolerate his commentary but it continues to reduce my enjoyment considerably.
