berkshiresaint Posted 29 March, 2014 Share Posted 29 March, 2014 Even though we smashed the toon today & played some great football they still only put us on as the penultimate game.

K,Billy's supersound Posted 29 March, 2014 Share Posted 29 March, 2014 It was a mid table game of no importance. The race for title and relegation issues deserve more air time.

Some of you are just plain f**king weird. Because it was a 4-0 win for a team involving several players who are looking to get a place on the plane to Brazil for the WC? I would rather see highlights on The Football League Show of a 4-0 win in a midtable game than a 0-0 or 1-0 from teams at the top or bottom of the table. I get your point about the actual importance of the game, but in terms of "highlights" it deserves to be higher up, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like it's been cracking, I'm looking forward to watching it. Ultimately MotD is a Premier League highlights show, so they're going to put the games that have the most impact on the Premier League at the front of the show. 8th vs 9th won't have much impact; every game before us apart from one has either title contenders or relegation candidates involved. Arguably our game should be before Man U vs Villa, but we all know of the BBC's obsession with Man U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melmacian_saint Posted 29 March, 2014 Share Posted 29 March, 2014 Speaking of MOTD, that Berahino moment for West Brom brought the Crouch v. Everton moment to my mind.

SNSUN Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 Lucky Jay didn't jump for Lambert's goal, it'd have been given offside otherwise. Must've been a good shout from Rickie. Lallana. Wow.

Professor Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 The name MOTD should have been updated years ago. It is a Premier League 'Highlights' programme, whereas at one time it just concentrated on one game and little else. These days, showing all the games, it must focus on matches where the outcome has maximum meaning. So, the crucial game for 8th place in the table, a genuine 6-pointer, should have been one of the first matches most viewers would be looking out for...

CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 I love MOTD. As a Saints fan it goes without saying that I would have put our game higher up the running order. However with my neutral 'hat' on a perfectly logical case can be made for all the editor's decisions. More important than any of that partisan nonsense, the banter between the boy Lineker, Hanson, and Alan Shearer was (yet again) last night quite superb. Surely you'd either need to possess a heart of stone, or indeed be the world's most fanatical Toon fan, not to have experienced one of those genuine 'laugh out loud' moments last night when Alan Hanson described JRods first goal yesterday as: "the worst goal ever conceded" and that Newcastle couldn't have made it any easier for us if they hadn't turned up at all. MOTD is not just another sports programme, it's a national institution like the Royal Family or Steven Fry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 I remember the halcyon days of the football league show when we were always top billing for our league which probably had something to do with us being a big club at that level/pushing for promotion That MoTD don't realise that we are the biggest club in the PL and the race for 8th is a massive draw is frankly shocking................................................... ........................I thought they were pretty complimentary about us TBH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Grandad Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 I don't mind what position we're shown as long as we get a decent coverage.

Professor Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 Never been a Lineker fan with his scripted one-liners and his attempts at clowning on crisps adverts but he was a very good footballer in his day and as a Saints' fan I do admire the amount of praise he gives our club.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 30 March, 2014 Share Posted 30 March, 2014 While I understand this mid-table game has little bearing on the top and bottom battles, to be fair a 4-0 thrashing of one of the old institutions is an interesting issue in it's own right, but the fact that we completely bossed the game with some excellent quality football with many Brazil bound England players or hopefuls is probably even more important. It was noticeable that the last game got a game analysis, but ours didn't...was it too painful for Shearer to discuss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
