Electronic Arts has confirmed that Andy Gray will not do the voice over cometary for FIFA 12, instead Ex-Arsenal player Alan Smith will commentate with FIFA veteran Martin Tyler. Gray was fired from Sky Sports after some off-camera remarks about female Premier League assistant referee Sian Massey.
Alan will bring a fresh, new perspective and insight to FIFA 12, working alongside the trusted and well-known voice of Martin Tyler, said FIFA 12 s senior producer David Rutter. As one of the top-tier broadcasters on the UK football scene, he brings enormous knowledge and expert analysis to the game so that we can deliver the most authentic FIFA experience this year.
The natural chemistry that Martin and I have developed working live matches for TV has transferred very well to the virtual broadcast booth, added Smith. I m really looking forward to FIFA fans hearing our work as we bring all the match day emotion and excitement to this year s game.
