BBC highlights

This is the extent of highlights we used to get on a weekly basis (if we were lucky) just 3 years ago.

 

 

That was a generous showing in comparison to the 20-30 seconds we got most weeks. All my efforts would have been justified with 1:26, turn off the telly and off to sleep a happy man...

Am I right in saying the whole country is digital now? If so no reason they couldn't have MOTD on the red button with extended highlights.

 

No reason other than not owning the rights to do this, probably (don't sky have them for their football first?).

 

I particularly enjoyed lineker's mumbled "and southampton are doing well" which represented the analysis of our performance. Sounded like he remembered we had lost our last match half way through the sentence.

How bad is match of the day highlights. The tackle from RIsse not even shown which he should of been sent off for and Burbatov tackle could have also been a 2nd red

 

Slightly biased viewpoint.. the Riise tackle could have seen a Red card for Ramirez as he was the one with the studs in the air and could have been seen as a stamp. Berbatov was however lucky not to see a 2nd yellow.

What was the consensus on the Ramirez shot, over the line?

 

There was no analysis. Just Jonathan Pearce's commentary along the lines of "obviously not a goal". I find his commentary quite annoying. He seems to think he needs to impose a snapshot editorial on things when there is no need.

 

As for the effort itself, what a great flick, turn and shot by Gaston. It's criminal how little we get him on the ball near the opposition box.

Yep. 2 goals in 11 games is not a great return for a player in his position. Playing him out wide is a nonsense really; he's our most creative and potentially effective player yet wasted out wide. Having Steven Davis in his position makes it even worse!

 

Gaston needs to be played central, and he also needs to get into scoring positions more often.

Annoying that Football League Show wasn't on last night. Any reason why?

 

 

 

They did this last year over Christmas/New Year. No FLS for any of the match days for the whole festive period including New Years Day. Inexplicable and pointless. Wouldn't surprise me if it is same again.

Can someone hook me up with internet link for highlights? I've not even seen the goals FFS!

 

Merry Christmas Bear-features.
