I think it's good and here are...

Shamrock Rovers - Win the Champions League On Fifa 11 (Reactions)
Переглядів 1,6 тис.12 років тому
Stand-up comedian Ian Smith here! Myself, Mark Pether (housemate) and Tom Toal (housemate/comedian) have been playing Fifa 11 career mode, trying to get Shamrock Rovers to the Champions League final for some time now, staying up until the early hours trying to build a team up to the challenge. After a very long time, we did it. Here are the highlights... of our reactions to the game unfolding.
Mixing stand up & sketch - awesome concept!
Good to see you back Ian. Still a big miss on Full Time Devils (Stratford Paddock) though!
Thanks! I’d definitely be up for making a return Stratford Paddock appearance one day!
I wonder if this made much sense to a New Zealand audience. Observation ...?
I love how the intensity grows with every "dictionary"
Class
Hilarious 😂
Ian Smith is brilliant on radio 4s the news quiz 😂
U from Hull?
HEs MAKEs ME LAUGH. 🙂
But maybe the jumpers were buy one get one free?
Dipped out of the football fan channels when his team started getting smashed every week 😄😄😄
Great energy and use of video, love this guy
Cracking up at the idea of having a favourite train station layout. Good stuff Ian
He's very good at skirting around his central involvement in maintaining white minority rule in Rhodesia, in the 60s and 70s. I thought comedy was a means by which to be honest about the human condition.
Great channel. Good luck with your career.
9/10 Not enough bushland
Is that a reference to the the Rhodesian Bush War of 1964-79 that led to the toppling of Ian Smith's white minority government and the establishment of Zimbabwe? I have to tell you, the bloke on stage is a different Ian Smith. He has little to no connection with Rhodesian/Zimbabwean politics. The distance of the camera makes it hard to tell, though.
Bro im leterally crying right now you are funny as fuck . (Kiwi)
Fulltimedevils
3:13 me when I win the champions league on career mode with a small team
This looks fucking hilarious actually.
I'll be first in line to buy you first DVD when it comes out.
Good luck with ur new show! Can't wait to see it!
Yes!
Ian Smith: Comedian of Champ20ns. You can have that for your posters mate.
