How disgusting and hate-filled is Holding?

Seriously. Hate is a very strong word, but he is crossing all the limits. He seems to be first person I might start hating.
He holds grudge for 1983 WC.

He doesn't watch any other cricket other than what he commentates on. He was surprised to see Bumrah at 140+ and spoke about Varun Aaron being quick as if he is our only fast bowler (only reason being he was commentating in England at the time). 

 

Sometimes makes some interesting points but sometimes patronising.

Don’t mean to be racist, but the blacks seem to have a bias against india. Remember Steve Bucknor who used to give wrong decisions against Indians, used to show his bias in any way he could 

Lara, Richards, Bishop are lovely people, no malice from their side. Holding is an Uncle Tom. Don't want to comment on Bucknor because our Venkatraghavan was harsh on the WI, esp Lara (I recall him giving 4/5 continuous bad decisions against Lara) but he was a terrific umpire.

I never liked him, look at 1983 world cup story from Star , Holding says even after 9 wickets down he thought he would be able to bat thru and win the match as Indian bowling was not dynamic. that was such a cocky statement.

Practically everything here is more hate filled than anything he has said. 

 

Do we honestly expect every commentator to praise India like in home matches. C'mon guys this is ridiculous.

 

If you don't agree with him, then don't agree with him but calling him disgusting, hate filled and worse words is way out of order.
