    Some of the time they've been showing the goals straight after they go in. Sky don't do that normally due to rights issues. Is it an error? I've just seen a clip of Proschwitz scoring for Barnsley.

    Having seen several goals in the last few minutes on the programme Sky must be allowed today to show them for some odd reason.

    They have been showing them all season for midweek matches in the football league. Nothing new here.

    It's come dressed as a blue seat day at Elland Road.

    Great start too.

    Weekend rights are different to weekday rights.

    Weekdays they can show the highlights of the football league whenever they wish. On a weekend they have to wait for a few hour because of the 3pm blackout in Saturdays.

    I'm talking about when you've got four ex-pros staring at separate matches on their TV screens through a football afternoon. On Stelling's programme you don't normally see the goals just after they have gone in. That's why they employ Merson, Le Tissier, etc, to tell us what's happening.

    Ah right. It must be ages since I watched the prog on anything other than a Saturday.
