It started with a tweet
No, this isn’t a love story – at least not yet – but in fact it may be the greatest crossover of our generation. It began with rapper Big Narstie, a man who needs no introduction, calling out British broadcasting and specifically football commentators for being boring.
That tweet is below.
These pundits are boring. If this don't get better before Russia I'm gonna have to roll out there myself and do my own ting

What followed was encouragement from his followers, and most notably from bookmaker 888sport, who issued Narstie the above challenge. Ever eager, Narstie thankfully accepted.
Fast forward a short while and here we are, with legendary commentator Barry Davies tutoring Narstie on the finer points of football commentary down at Queens Park Rangers’ stadium, Loftus Road.
But look, don’t take it from me, take it from the video evidence. So sit back, relax and above all, enjoy.
