A legend in many ways,some of his quotes were unintentional masterpieces.

Just one thing to say - Coleman Balls! Very clever and never failed to make me smile, if not laugh out loud!

David Coleman at the Tokyo Olympics. "And there's an Nip in the air tonight" while the camera pans to reveal a helicopter hovering above the stadium- priceless.
Attributed:-
"He is one of the great unknown champions because very little is known about him."
"If that had gone in, it would have been a goal."
"We estimate, and this isn't an estimation, that Greta Waltz is 80 seconds behind."
"He is accelerating all the time. The last lap was run in 64 seconds and the one before in 62."
"And the line-up for the final of the women's 400 metres hurdles includes three Russians, two East Germans, a Pole, a Swede and a Frenchman."
"The front wheel crosses the finish line, closely followed by the back wheel."
"The Republic of China: back in the Olympic Games for the first time."
"That's the fastest time ever run, but it's not as fast as the world record."
"Forest have now lost six matches without winning."
"There is a fine line between serendipity and stalking."
"This evening is a very different evening from the morning we had this morning."
"He's seven seconds ahead and that's a good question."
"I think there is no doubt, she'll probably qualify for the final."
