Ray Hudson drops expletive, not realising he’s on live television

He meant every syllable of that

It sure sounds like Ray Hudson is in the midst of one hell of a mid-week slump.

Hudson didn’t seem to be in the best of moods as half-time struck in the game he was covering on Wednesday night.

Hudson was on commentary duty for Real Madrid’s Copa del Rey quarter-final second leg against Leganes at the Bernabeu.

Zinedine Zidane’s side fell behind to a first-half opener courtesy of Javier Eraos and just before coverage cut to adverts at the break, Hudson could be heard letting out a hearty: “Fucking hell!”

Whatever message Hudson was given was clearly in studio not well-received and he just dropped the F-Bomb right down the very live microphone.

It’s the second example of unforgettable Hudson commentary this month because, just two weeks ago, the former Newcastle midfielder welcomed Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona with a bizarre but brilliant song.

We could all do with a bit more Ray Hudson in our lives.
