James Alexander Gordon RIP

He was a true master of his trade. I grew up listening to him read the football results, and trying to guess what the away team scored with the pitch of his voice for the home team.

Me too - as an adult still got delight at trying to guess the away score from his voice.

As you say, will be missed, an absolute natural for the results. RIP.

Sports Report iconic music and straight into the results by James Alexander Gordon. He knew how to pitch every single score perfectly. When I was going to football regularly his buttery tone with that Scottish hint, was the only way of knowing how your rivals had got on

He used to say ........English League Division Two..........now it is the English Sky Bet Championship League.
