Channel 5's new football show.

[Dazza]

Isn't there goal line technology in the FL?

Nope.No goal line technology in FL unfortunately.

 

[TomPNE94]

It's gonna be absolutely wank. Any of these types of shows with a live audience are awful.

 

[cufc17]

Can just imagine it, final game of the season:

'We'll see which Championship side managed to clinch the title, but first let's have a look at Accrington v Dagenham...'

 

[markwwfc1992]

Never thought I'd say this but bring back Manish, Leroy and Steve, all is forgiven!

 

[yellow]

I'd rather have watched Steve Claridge for 3 hours than that. And I fucking hate Steve Claridge.

 

[Gashead]

The show made me want to be back in the Conference.

 

[BCFC David]

It was awful. Not much else to say, it was that bad.

 

[Red]

Awful, awful awful. They've tried to make it look sexy, but I can't even get a semi.

 

[Red]

It's full of these new and annoying ways of presenting football, i.e. a lot of standing up and talking, iPads and big touch screens and pointless Twitter updates from nondescript footballers filling any gaps, then some standing up and talking. This show is worse as you get all that with endless ad breaks, followed by more standing up and talking. Presenters used to sit behind a desk years ago and it was fine.

That's what I wanted to say, but I didn't have the creativity to come up with it. You've hit the nail right on the head mate.

 

[Bobbin']

One of the worst things I've ever watched.

Will just stick to sky's review in the week and watch our highlights on our club player from now on.

 

[Bobbin']

That league table on the cheap plastic board was such a cringeworthy segment, only beaten by this with Martin Allen.

"What do you want me to say?" haha

Couldn't agree more.

'After the break, we'll reveal the League One and Championship tables'

The suspense nearly fucking killed me.

 

[KevinMcallister]

Everything about it is so tinpot.

Mind, I shouldn't be surprised; it's a show about tinpot teams on a tinpot channel.

what, well that's shit if they only put Doncaster Rovers highlights on, glad i didn't watch it now

 

[Master D]

The show made me want to be back in the Conference.

It's even too tinpot for us Non Leaguers. Well, apart from Eastleigh.

 

[joethegill]

The only good thing about it was that we were on in the first 10 minutes so I could turn it off.

 

[Hooped Wizard]

what, well that's shit if they only put Doncaster Rovers highlights on, glad i didn't watch it now

Jesus no wonder you're a failure obese unemployed virgin.

Let me guess - broken family?

Watched this really funny parody on Channel 5 on Saturday night. Think it might have been from the makers of The Day Today?

Anyone know where I can see the football league highlights on a Saturday though?

Sky Sports News, 8pm.

Sky Sports News, 8pm.

Yeah I guess so. Shame really as a good show would be an enjoyable thing to have on a Saturday night or hungover on a Sunday morning. I read this thread but still didn't believe it was as bad as it turned out to be

I mean, Adam Virgo? And this was the opening show!! Who the fuck are they gonna have in gameweek 40? Someone who once lived next door to Delroy Facey?

 

[SF_]

Football highlights should only be on a Sunday morning/ afternoon anyway, who is sober enough to watch fucking football on a Saturday night?

It’s early days for #FootballOn5, but we’re listening to your comments – expect some tweaks to Football League Tonight this Saturday.

 

[TomPNE94]

Thank fuck!

 

[HarvSFC]

So we'll be watching a completely different show this weekend? Excellent.

 

[TractorBoys]

Wouldn't get too overexcited just yet, but hopefully they'll at least order the format of the games properly FFS!

TB

 

[TomPNE94]

It has the potential to be very good with that time slot. I don't really care tbh, I just recordc it and watch it an hour later and forward through to the goals. Same with MOTD.

 

[Dazza]

I expect the only change they make will be to show the goals from the 3 leagues after each other rather than mixing it up like they did last Saturday.

 

[Super_horns]

Last night's Carling Cup coverage was better with just one presenter and a guest covering from Fratton Park.

It would be much better if they did that every Saturday. Have the presenter at the ground of the feature game.I think ITV did that when they showed the highlights. Although they had the awful Matt Smith presenting it.

Yes. I'm choosing Casualty.

 

[Costello]

I give it 3 weeks.

Seems like I might have been generous with that prediction on the "vibrant" studio audience.

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Who are the people that go in the audience on these shows? It's the same on Sky when they do it on Saturday night, loads of zombies lurking in the shadows, contributing f all to the programme.

Makes it unwatchable.
