Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

Wouldn't surprise me if that did play a part tbh. Probably realised that they were lacking slightly in bame pundits when they asked everyone to wear the BLM badges.

 

I think relevance and competition were the major factors.
They need to appeal to younger viewers now, as they've got a lot of competition online.

 

hold on, you are calling out someone....and don’t go, FFS.

 

Wouldn’t know, I almost never watch or listen pundits of any description, if I can avoid it.

LeTiss though; not many English footballers have ever come close...I forgive him for talking bollocks.

 

Hope they go with younger guys who sail a bit close to the line. The thing that made soccer Saturday is the banter between the ex players. Get some lads in who will speak their mind. Even someone like Joey Barton would be funny (I know he is currently managing).

There will be certain criteria to fill. We'll end up with Aluko. She ticks alot of boxes.

I just want to watch lads have that changing room banter whilst watching the telly. Hopefully they will get it right.

 

I dont live in England anymore mate

And to be entirely ****ing honest every time ive been its been utter ****. Football is gash live.

 

watching City will be ****e, like the RS, no atmosphere.

 

I don’t mind the one who commentates first the BBC, Alex Scott. She knows her stuff.

I putting O’hara as a possibility.

 

Have been to anfield on the odd occasion, was ****e

 

I dont think I watched one motd last year. Does anyone still watch it here as thier primary football highlights show?

I can do without Gary Lineker and Alan shearer talking ****e tbh and usually check whatever games highlights via YouTube.

Just been discussing the TV licence with my old man who's just paid his much to my displeasure.

 

Le Tissier is an absolute cretin. See his ramblings on Coronavirus and politics for details.

 

Why would I be interested in his ramblings about Coronavirus?

See his two goals against Newcastle at the Dell in 1993

 

He felt the need to share them.....

 

MOTD is a dead product. Just a token offering by the PL for some free to air coverage(it’s not fooking free)

 

I didn’t feel the need to listen to them

 

Oh yeah, I'm not saying that girls don't know their stuff but I'd rather hear a Roy Keane give an opinion on what he sees and his opinion on what must it be like in that dressing room etc than someone who played for Arsenal Ladies. It probably comes across as being sexist as f**k but that's not my intention.

For example I remember a few months back a question put to the panel about dressing room dynamics after a Premier League game. The panel was Jamie Redknapp, Alex Scott and Ruud Gullit. Alex Scott interrupted Redknapp whilst discussing a mens dressing room after a game. If it was a woman's game and I was on the panel I'd just shut up as I have no experience in a womens changing room after a woman's game.

If your on a lads night out and some soppy bastard brings their girlfriend it affects the dynamic of the group. Soccer Saturday is a bit like that (had gone a bit stale though) and I think a female analyst might screw up the banter.

 

I couldn’t imagine JR being part of a dynamic dressing room. He is the pundit version of a wet fart.

 

All the club youtube channels stick highlights on right after the game, its well better.

 

It used to be the thing you didn't miss on a weekend usually, but that was down to lack of other options imo, which people have now so yeah it's dying a slow death.

Dont think I've ever paid a TV license, never will either

 

BT sport youtube and sky for me, all the football without the inane ramblings of old "engerland" players
