RE: Roy Mooreisms
I came over for my first TT in 2012 and Roy Moore will always remind me of that. Maybe not the best commentator in the world but there's just something about him which has stuck with me. Came over again in 2013 but have only listened on Manx Radio since. For me, wouldn't be the same without him.

I think that was in reference to radio coverage of the TT going out to tender

My own opinion of RM is that he has a wealth of knowledge and stories which many enjoy, I would like to have him continue as part of Radio TT. BUT he should no longer do race commentaries

Just today,

"Yea Glen Irwin was useless he's been sacked, Roy Moore's back here now",

"We will get the knives back to you shortly" about Connors Granny's cake ritual.

Breem vs Beam, lost count on how many times that happened over the fortnight.

At least he got beam right LOL

When Dean Harrison took the lead, 7 seconds vs 7.8 seconds "will call it 8"

RE: Roy Mooreisms
It's good to hear Roy, and all his Mooreisms adds to all the atmosphere, especially in a year when I am having to follow the action from the mainland.. Ferry tickets and accommodation booked for 2020.

RE: Roy Mooreisms
He's used the "trouser bulging" at least once before, in fact I'm pretty certain it was included in the commentary heard in the Closer to the Edge movie.
