MOTD has been **** lately. They seem to go out of their way to avoid big incidents which should be covered. I know they have a finite amount of time for each game but ffs they could cut down on the nonsense from the likes of Savage hyperbolising about every goal and show us more football. Today the McGregor injury and the challenge that caused it, the Graham header, the diving theme which tarnished the game and a few other things were completely missed from the highlights, while the Rooney handball(?) wasn't shown to be either handball or not handball. The Smalling goal was shown but no mention or even a close-up of the fact that he had a hand on each of Davies' shoulders pushing him down.
but . .. didnt we all agree with Cloughy , in that there is too much analysis and not enough football shown Personally i dont care much what the pundits say or their agenda / lack of i make up my own mind on ****
Yes I agree with this, I don't mind a bit of analysis but there's too much raving and bemoaning and nothing in between. There seems to be less focus on the facts than before. The commentator acknowledged the shout for handball but no replay was shown. It was impossible to see either way.
I'm surprised they didn't show the Young challenge on McGregor or the Shrekney blatant hand ball. Non of the panel are particularly pro Man Utd and they did say we'd done well and should be ok but overall some serious incidents were totally ignored.
Its typical CG. First time in ages we've topped the league and they don't show the ****ing goals. Had to stay up watching ****e like Hull vs Man U
I think they're that scared of being accused of showing allegiance to us that they'd rather blank us. We rarely get a 'well done'. Unlike our Gary Gary Lineker ‏@GaryLineker 7h Blooming. Brilliant. Bloody Boxing Day. @OfficialFOXES top of the League.
It's alright for you if they're not mentioning you, it's a good omen. Last season it wasn't rare for them to give a run down of the top 6's performance on the day and leave out our very existence. "Cardiff maintained their lead at the top, whilst 3rd place Palace dropped 2 points at Derby, allowing Watford and..." with no mention of us being in second place.
Seriously, keep it like that. Let them concentrate on the others, makes the end of the season all that more sweeter. Talking about the Championship, McLaren at Derby, fooking hell, can see them going up with you atm.
I was surprised they didn't show the incident with McGregor and there was no close up of their player jumping all over ours for their goal. I am a bit annoyed that Michael Owen has us to be relegated on his twitter account. Got me looking nervously at the league table.
Good that the Beeb showed them tops off/fat **** Sunlan fans humiliating themselves (as per) at the final whistle at Goodison. Reverse result but it was up there with those misshapen creatures doing gestures a la Americana to Di Canio after they got thrashed by someone or other.
