Very useful info every Sunday morning for me, this. Maybe this could be a dedicated thread...?
In fact, if someone else could take it upon themselves to let me know how far on I have to click to get to the football every time f***ing Lizzie comes on, that'd be grand as well, because I've not got the faintest idea what the bloody hell she's supposed to be doing there. My wife sounds more convincingly into football and she's never been to a game in her life. If Helen Chamberlain was in that slot it'd mean something, but this Lizzie just comes across as relieved to be off the sports desk at BBC Inbredshire radio news and making her play for The One Show.
Like I always say, public input to shows adds nothing to them, if we're going to do that we might as well let them present the bloody things.

Right, no sooner does Lizzie stop talking shit than we cut to that bloke who won't be on telly in a couple of years - STANDING IN A CORRIDOR. Was he late for the program and they had to meet him halfway or something? Sit the f*** down and introduce the match, not that we couldn't have guessed what it was anyway from the llittle words up in the corner.
Load of f***ing bollocks. I'd be less offended if they spent my licence fee on a baby grinder.

Who is the slaphead with the beard that makes him look like he's dipped his face in an arse? The one at Newcastle? I f***ing can't stand him either. Why not get Des Lynam to do this program?

So true.
It's always mindless bollocks like "And this email came in from Dan, who's a Sheffield Wednesday fan. He says he hopes the owls don't keep losing. He goes on to say that they need to defend better and score more goals"

I can't believe Forest weren't one of the feauted games ........ and Leicester were!!!!! The shows a bit of a joke - whenever Forest deserve a little praise they always fall back on how much we've spent, with no mention of the lack of big spending for the preceeding seasons!!
Never mind, at least Derby were on after us

I think the 'featured' game is predetermined so even if it turns out to be a bit shit they can't do much about it, sadly.

Fair point, I hadn't considered that. Probably goes to show why they've started the show recently with a couple of bore draws.

I like the way that Claridge tries to write of Forest's success as 'well, they've had a lot of money to spend'.
The fact that most our signings have been last year's loanees doesn't appear to enter into the equation. I don't count the likes of Gunter, Camp and Anderson as BIG NEW SIGNINGS, because it was more of a case of persuading them to join full-time. Which they did. And they have been a bloody credit to us, too.
But you cannot write off our form just by saying we've spent money.

I must say I'm getting seriously facked off with this show!
SC is a total dick. I seem to remember at the start of the season he said we hadn't got/spent any money, i can remember thinking then that he doesn't know what he's on about!
Then there is this bald guy talking before our game, sort of introducing Nottingham Forest, giving a sh1tty down memory lane spiel about our history like the nation hasn't even heard of our club, like we were some sh1tty club no-one had heard of! Could not believe that.
Then there was the Tyson bashing from Lily and SC after the Direby game.
Then the p1ss poor biased commentry in the Cardiff game!
BBC can fack off imo.

On the whole Steve Claridge isn't bad. His letters column on the BBC website makes decent reading. It does annoy me that when answering one of Maneesh's questions he spends a long time looking down at the desk as if the whole exchange has been scripted (it might well have been), and he can't remember what he was supposed to say. At least Lawro and Alan Hansen give the impression that what they are saying is spontaneous.
As for the emails lady, well, as many people have said, what's the point? If there's one thing we DON'T need on TV, it's ordinary people and their opinions. Give me more post-match interviews rather than Steve from Macclesfield who's just got back from Torquay and thinks the team aren't good enough.

It irked me that SC just went on about us having money to spend. Any moron (Platt) can spend millions, but it takes a very, very good manager to spend it on the right players and then make them play well together.
Regarding the predetermined match, isn't it just whoever fester are playing?
Moving on to next week's game, I don't think the bin dippers will be that much of a threat to us up front from what I saw on FLS. Fryatt and Waghorn are way below the quality of Harewood and Carroll who Wes and Wils had in their pockets for 90 minutes. They seemed to just thump balls up the pitch constantly.

Its a shame they don't put the e-mails on screen, as I'd send in an Acrostic Poem saying something like 'Manish is a ****tard'.

I've just re-watched the Forest highlights again and noticed that when Manish asks Clarridge about our good performances he starts talking about how several other teams have been getting, after slow starts. It must seriously pain him to talk good of us!
I can't wait to see what even and un-biased opinion he gives after the Leicester game

They didn't read my text asking what had happened to the "make savage look like a twat" feature that had proven such a winning formula the week before.

''So guys, how do we improve ratings ?''
(new guy) ''well, we can get Robbie Savage in''
(old Boss) ''Rubbish, no-one likes him''
(new guy) ''Exactly sir''
(old Boss) ''Hmm I see your point, HILARY, call the comedians in. We need some subtle lines for Steve''

I like Lizzie. I think she's fit. Football shows need more fit ladies and less Leicester bias.
