to be honest! I dont watch the coverage anymore! same s***e you get every week! i tune in a minute after kick off when the kneeling is done, go for a walk at half time and turn it off at full time.

Only time i enjoyed analysis was on soccer saturday and i dont even watch that anymore since they got rid of them all!

Yep. The pre-match is normally full of women now for some unknown reason and no-one gives a toss about any teams other than the regular top 6 including the normally biased match commentators.

TV sport is starting to mirror the wider world, it all favours the biggest and wealthiest.

I tend to agree, it's total dross. Whenever it's Palace it always seems to be about Zaha and no one else. Same chat every time.

Found a great quiz on BBC - name all England Test players this century. Far more entertaining than the half time nonsense.

Enjoy Roy's interviews though. Class act

Pundits always pro top 6. They know their base.

If you read the messages posted on the BBC stream all arsenal.

Yep 100%. It wouldn't be so bad if they picked pundits who haven't played for either of the teams playing that game. However, when we played Liverpool, we had Liverpool commentators and pundits, against Arsenal, it's Arsenal pundits etc. It seems the TV companies only want ex-player pundits from the so-called 'Big Six'.

Sorry, I may be old skool, but I can't take any pundit seriously that wears animal print tops and pink (!) stilettos.

Apart from John Fashanu, or was it Justin, I can’t remember which?

Jealousy's not a good trait you know

 


Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry.

I regret that I wouldn't trust a former referee to be objective. I still remember with bitterness that goal against Leeds (I think) many years ago which clearly crossed the line then was cleared - and disallowed. It was such a blatant refereeing error that the BBC actually brought on a retired official on the Today programme the following Monday to try to justify it.

This guy was utterly shameless, pointing out that the ref had relied on the linesman, who couldn't see the ball because a player was obstructing his view. Yes, and the player obstructing his view was behind the goal line! So where was the ball?

I was there and believe it was a cup game and the ref may have been Dermot Gallagher. Not only did the ball cross the line it was handled on the way in (I think Michael Duberry). It was at the Sainsburys end and I saw it clearly from the Upper Holmesdale.

Not only was the goal not given but the handball (and resulting sending off) was also missed. This was perhaps the worst bit of refereeing I have ever seen at Selhurst and that is saying a lot!

Referees stick together and always seem to go out of their way to find an excuse not to criticise one another. Occasionally Clattenburg (Mark to you Willo) appears on TV and he is truly nauseating and still totally up himself.

Referees should be seen and not heard or neither in Clattenburg's case.
