CDMullins 436 Posted February 1, 2020 Dreadful coverage. Completely missed out; Pukki's 1 on 1. Cantwells potential Pen. Kenny's near post header. Hernandez chance in last second. Somehow managed to make them. Look the better side, unbelievable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary Wundaboy 1,358 Posted February 2, 2020 Nil nil draw, we’re 7 points adrift, nothing they can say about this game that doesn’t apply to 60% of our other games this season. Why give us the coverage? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,531 Posted February 2, 2020 Usual stale rubbish from motd. Shearer - yet again and for the umpteenth time - given several minutes to tell everyone how rubbish his team is and all we get is about 5 secs of "Norwich had a couple of chances". Not good journalism at all, not good presenting, not good punditry and a waste of a huge amount of licence payers' money using has been ex pros to deliver a second rate product. Get in a new presenter and some different pundits and we might have a decent highlights programme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
City 2nd 191 Posted February 2, 2020 It was a 0 0 draw! So was the Man Utd match! Rightly both matches were near the end of the program as every other match had something to show and analyze, including the now famous incompetence of referee Simon Hooper! What is there to say about Pukki and a “one on one” other than he should have scored, Cantwell’s potential penalty, McCleans header and Hernandez late chance. Absolutely nothing, it was a 0 0 draw! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im honestly not bothered where we are in the line up, nor do I want them to say anything about the chances but I do want to bloody see them. Although the vantage point at St James is fantastic it's hard to see the nitty gritty, Cantwells penalty for instance looked stonewall. The inconsistency is also rediculous, why show Pukki's left foot half volley that was probably going over anyway and not show him racing clear 1 on 1 with the keeper.

East Rider 548 Posted February 2, 2020 Love seeing us on MOTD. Generally fills me with pride, that and full well knowing that other teams supporters are looking at us green with envy. It was a 0-0 and we are bottom, so last on the schedule is probably right. Whilst those three may not be everyone's cup of tea (personally I'd prefer Jemain Jenas and Danny Murphy) they do not have an agenda against us. I hope we are on MOTD next season!

It's more competitive than most other European leagues and it does occasionally throw up the odd interesting story, like Leicester. And Sheffield Utd fans are having a whale of a time, atm.

Remember we would still serve a purpose creating new players. I don’t want to be a feeder club but the reality is there.

Sheffield United have done well but pointing out the exceptions to the rule (btw they are big money backed as well) doesn’t alter the fact that this league is designed for us to be cannon fodder for billionaires. It leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. There is no justice in this league for us. VAR is a cherry on top of the s&£; sandwich as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,925 Posted February 2, 2020 I’d love us to stay more than just one season in this league. People who hate it are just in denial with their reasoning. We just can’t hack it with the big boys I’m afraid. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But a ‘trickle’ of money won’t pay the players contracts, it won’t satisfy the club’s creditors that are millions and millions in debt. The current premier league would get a tv deal and sponsorship not a lot better than what the championship gets, the championships next deal even less and so on.

Players will still be legally entitled to their current contracts, clubs that are 100s of millions in debt won’t suddenly by manic have their debt wiped away.

They enter the euro league and we remain in a domestic league. The debt won’t go away but it didn’t when the premier league was formed. There is too much potential money available for a European super league. The top league isn’t for domestic fans it’s for the worldwide TV audience. You seem to be confused and think that the people that run football remotely care about our fortunes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
