David Gower appreciation thread

[stephen cartwright]

Loved his style as a player and as a commentator it’s been a pleasure to listen to him

I recommend his book An Endangered Species

Thank you Mr Gower for all the memories

Would love to hear him on TMS .

He’s brilliant, a big part of an excellent commentary team.

Disappointed that he won’t be on sky anymore

Well debating commentators on a clearly defined appreciation thread for someone retiring is slightly different from mentioning scores when there is sod all happening in a safc game
