Absolute rubbish. It'd be a great loss not to hear Carlton Kirby's dulcit tones and great commentary.

Mr. Kirby does a disservice to the sport of cycling by not covering the races and the athletes in a thorough and respectful way. Rather what the spectator gets, is a cliche-filled non-stop stream of consciousness where Carlton also comes across as racist and UK-centric.

Shocking lack of knowledge of cycling, a real life Partridge with similar self awareness. How does Sean Kelly put up with it??

Just so dull, sweeping nonsense statements while missing half the action.

Another race ruined. Again he is incapable of commentating on what is actually happening. Sorry advertisers but you have wasted your money advertising to me because I wont be watching

Just tuned into Eurosport this afternoon to watch the Milan-Sanremo and braced myself ready to listen to the verbal diarrhoea that comes from Kirby's mouth. Alleluia! he's not commentating, allowing me to enjoy a superb race in the company of 2 excellent commentators. That's the good news, but I'm re-bracing myself ready for next week when he might be "commentating" on The Tour of Catalunya and we may have to put up with his drivel for 7 consecutive days!. Just keeping my fingers crossed that won't be the case, but I'm not holding my breath.

Please replace him. Dan Lloyd, Matt Stephens, rob hatch, rob hayles, magnus bagstedt, Adam Blythe and more are all far superior (but not ant McCrossan). Thank you

Couldn't agree more. He's terrible. I choose another language rather than listen to his inane commentary. commentary.

How about that creepy sucking sound he makes through his teeth? "Caleb Ewan's saddle looks too low..." He fancies himself an expert bike fitter now. Poor Dan Lloyd must be about to stab himself.
