Sorry to bump, but I've found some proper funny quotes to go with the ones on here, which are mostly just goal commentaries.
"We've got racism pretty well organised in England..." SSN, in the aftermath of the monkey chants in Spain.
BBC website:
"As they say in Italy, it's Goodnight Vienna." Century FM Commentator as Man Utd went 5-0 up against Roma.
"Extra time probably came at the wrong time for us." Mark Hughes after Blackburn's FA Cup defeat by Chelsea. When exactly was he expecting extra time to come?!
"I've been saying for a long time now that the bottom three will go down." Nigel Winterburn commenting on who he thinks will be relegated from the Premiership this season.
"I think we deserved the three points." Michael Essien gets a little bit confused as to what he's achieved, having rifled home the last gasp Champions League winner against Valencia. (Adam Pearce, England). It must be a Chelsea thing - Wayne Bridge said exactly the same after winning the Carling Cup.
"It was always going to be a must-win game against England, but now it becomes even more must-win." Jacques Kallis on South Africa's crunch game against England. Which they must win.
Martin Brundle: "Congratulations on your fifth pole, Felipe."
Felipe Massa: "You've just congratulated me on the next one because this is my fourth!"
ITV's Martin Brundle looks into the future on his gridwalk before F1's Malaysian GP.
"I'd compare him to the incomparable George Best." David Pleat singing Cristiano Ronaldo's praises during Man Utd's win over Roma.
"Those jokes were getting me down but that wicket's really brightened Mahmood." A terrible pun following a Saj Mahmood wicket on the Cricinfo website - in response to a few even worse ones during the England-Bangladesh game.
Interviewer : So is the pressure now on Manchester United?
Jose Mourinho: No, no pressure. If they play well, they will win. If they don't play well, they will get a penalty and still win.
Mourinho after Chelsea closed the gap at the top of the Premiership to three points.
"Giggs is enjoying himself in the centre of the threesome." David Pleat talking about United's attack during the Man U v Roma game.
"Then Ryan O'Leary had to come on in the second half because Simon Ford was feeling his groin at half-time." Comment from Kilmarnock Manager Jim Jeffries after the game v Hearts.

Best football quote ever!
"Gascoigne, oh he's hit Hassler there - and the referee's coming over (pulls yellow out and shows it to Gascoigne) oh no". - Brian Moore on Gazza's booking in the 1990 WC SF V West Germany.
"Oh and the referee's taking out another card for Beckham - and he's off!" - Brian Moore's last ever commentary for ITV, the dismissal of Beckham for the flick on Simeone.
"James punches it out to CANTONAAAA!! Oh I don't believe it, you just could not write this script!" Martin Tyler on Eric Cantona's winner in the 1996 FA Cup Final against Liverpool to seal the Double.
"Oh a weary one from Vieira. Giggs, still Giggs, past Dixon past Winterburn it's a wonderful run from GIGGS!" Tyler again on the Ryan Giggs wondergoal that saw United into the 1999 FA Cup Final.
"Cristiano Ronaldo's got his toy back now. I think they're going to have to throw another ball on for the others to play with" Clive Tyldesley (and yes it's sampled for FIFA games as well)
"Gascoigne... he's gone past Koeman, that's no easy task for a start, still Gascoigne and brought down just outside the area. (viewing replay) "That was a superlative little flick there, right out of the Johan Cryuff book of football"
Brian Moore on Gascoigne's "Cryuff turn" against Holland in Italia90.
"The name's famous - and so is the shirt. Manchester United fans get their first look at 17 year old Cristiano Ronaldo"
Tyldesley - Man Utd V Bolton Aug 03
"Anderton, Shearer, waits for SHERINGHAM! It's England 4, Holland 1!" Clive Tyldesley yet again as England treat the Dutch to a display of total football at Wembley in Euro96

Haha, nuffin' wrong with Lawrie.
The worst input from John Motson came in the World Cup last year when he said this gem:
John Motson : "There seems to be an Abel Xavier lookalike in the crowd".
Mark Lawrenson : "That IS Abel Xavier".
Who can forget Ron Atkinson's racist ouburst?
"Marcel Desailly is a lazy focking..." You get the picture...
haha, the best thing with ron atkinson is that i actually knew he was a racist before. german tv left the microphones on at halftime in cl games. and my dad and me taped what he said. stuff like: "look at that long-haired poof!" and "it's just like watching everton!"(after a particualarly boring half) were funny
