Athers was by far the best of the imported people on TV commentary, Alison Mitchell being a regular fixture down here now. Why the fuck Channel 7 ponied up any money at all for Botham is beyond me - he's incoherent and way past it. Send him back to the House of Lords where he (doesn't) belong

He always was an ill informed buffoon.
