Carlton Kirby is super intelligent and his knowledge and language varieties are tremendous. Why the hell would anyone want to watch hours of cycling without his Witt and humour??? He is thee best commentator on our television. I’m so pleased this useless petition has an embarrassing 363 signatures!!! All hail sir Carlton....you are Eurosport’s cycling

You can't understand it???? My wife knows nothing about cycling and she hates his absolutely nonsensical prattle as well. The man is the master of verbal diarrhoea .

He doesn't know a lot about ANY sport not just cycling.

This idiot is absolutely clueless and quite frankly I turn any sporting event off if his voise pipes up. I have just had this years Le Mans ruined for me by this balloon.

I cannot understand this malicious campaign against Carlton Kirby. There seems to be a copy cat tendency to claim superior knowledge of cycling to Carlton just because he adds a liitle humour and colour to his generally well informed commentary which makes a change from some of the other metronomic Eurosport commentators. To me, Carlton Kirby and the wonderful Sean Kelly form the ideal balance for cycling coverage. Gordon, Cumbria

He is much better writing about cycling than talking about it

For me he is the Clive Tyldesley of cycling commentary. And that's not a compliment.

He has the most annoying voice on Eurosport! He doesn’t know what he’s talking about when it comes to cycling!

Bring back David Duffield and his wonderful stories about cheese and Roman roads.

Finally I have found a whole group of people who agree with me about CK. He really is very annoying and if he does know something about cycling he certainly doesnt transmit that to viewrs! Yes enough of the erms and ums ! And has he ever described the BIKES themelves?? Its what many of us amateurs are interested in! Pleease Eurosport find someone new, I certainly only watch ITV when it comes to the TdeF.

No offence, but he is really annoying. I have to see the giro in Rai because his "jokes" and sounds are driving me crazy. He seems like a nice guy, but not good for this, unfortunately.

I wouldn´t normally make negative comments about someone in this vain, but he has really irritated me for a while now. I´m British but live in Germany and have the choice of German or English commentary. Would prefer my native language but I just can´t suffer this guy for more than 5 minutes. Always wondered what happened to Harmon, was hoping at least that Hatch would be doing the Giro but oh well....

The man is totally past his best. This years Giro d Italia is a pleasure without him. Sean Kelly is as bad he drones on and on and on and on
