I can not bare to watch any race with Carlton Kirby as a commentator. His inane comments and constant mistakes drive me mad, please replace him!!!!

Today’s lowlights included “the rule of thumb, I don’t use my thumb as a rule because it’s only two and a half inches long”. What an idiot.

He is an Alan Partridge parody. Get him off the air.

He really is cringeworthy. He gets worse depending on co-commentator. Brian Smith seems to keep him in check but the Kirby/Kelly combination leaves me angry at his BS rather than enjoying the sport.

Dreadful inane style of commentary. The sycophantic adulation of Team Sky in recent years has been intolerable.

Eurosport are to blame as they keep him employed, but he’s truly dreadful nonetheless.

An ignoramus, an idiot, whose sense of humour is that of a 10-year-old. Cycling analysis: none. Doesn't even watch his TV monitors much, regularly misses decisive action. Bangs on about pesky roundabouts, gnarly roads, kickers, and leaf litter. Get rid of him!

Continually insults/belittles riders, countries,religious beliefs & the viewers by assuming that his lack of knowledge about cycle racing goes unnoticed -so many mistakes. How does he keep his job, are Sky management not interested in keeping customers. The use of the mute button & turning on Channel 4 cycle coverage when on keeps us sane.
