The commentators of any nation involved in the the next World Cup should not be from the country involved in the match , or in the British case no one from the home countries because their bias ruins the games .id rather listen to another nations tongue rather than have to turn the sound off to enjoy the game .

Bias? (can't do links so in manuscript form - i've nothing better to do in between races at Ascot).

Norway beat England 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier in Oslo in 1981. At the end of the match, radio commentator Bjorge Lillelien, alternating between English and Norwegian, proudly proclaimed, "We are the best in the world! We have beaten England! England, birthplace of giants. Lord Nelson, Lord Beaverbrook, Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Anthony Eden, Clement Attlee, Henry Cooper, Lady Diana, we have beaten them all, we have beaten them all. Maggie Thatcher, can you hear me Maggie Thatcher? Your boys took a hell of a beating, your boys took a hell of a beating."

That's biased.
