Legendary football commentator John Motson decided to quit!


Legendary BBC commentator John Motson retired recently after half a century of loyal service that made him and his trademark sheepskin coat a fixture of English football fans’ weekends.
The 72-year-old — who has commentated on 29 FA Cup finals and six World Cup finals — will receive a special award from Crystal Palace and manager Roy Hodgson in recognition of his longevity after the final whistle has been blown on Palace’s game with relegated West Brom.

“At the moment I’m perfectly balanced and quite cool about it. I’m not going to make a really big deal of it — I’ve known since September that this was going to be my last season.”, Motson told Press Association Sport
